@TimMLatimer Since the beginning of summer I've been getting asked about our approach to data center sustainability at least once a week by LPs. And I just did an interview with VCJ on the topic. Definitely a growing topic.
We're going to need a bigger boat....so proud to have spun @ImpactScienceVC out of @activatefellows see all the continued success that organization drives. And glad to be along for the ride!
Friends are telling me this is the moment for a “how it started | how it’s going” post, but I really want to save that for when it hits billions in revenue / tons of co2! So let’s just use this as an excuse to say go @activatefellows, go!!! 🚀
It's actually very difficult to keep innovation funding creative enough while simultaneously limiting ideas that will never work based on physics showstoppers. The US has a huge advantage in this because of the vetting that can be done by our national labs.
Some exciting @fervoenergy news.
We’ve raised a new $244m funding round from leading investors to accelerate development of next-generation geothermal. Demand for 24/7 carbon free energy has never been more urgent, and we’re ready to meet the challenge.

I'll vouch - Duluth does not suck. And love the special from @TheDailyShow on my hometown. But no, there is no refuge for climate change.

1/We @fervoenergy are excited to announce our new geothermal drilling results. We have achieved a 70% YoY reduction in drilling times, dramatically outpacing predictions, and are poised to unleash a new wave of geothermal decades ahead of schedule. THREAD. https://t.co/UJc0oojzou
@CalvinCupini This is where CFIUS steps in. Zero chance a foreign adversary or related party executes a transaction. On the flip side, what an American PE firm does with that data might not be much better.
I was an investor during #Cleantech 1.0 and actively avoided - the economics never made sense. For Cleantech 2.0, I've completely rearranged my career to be at the forefront of the #EnergyTransition. Come find out why!
Sure Biden and Xi will be meeting this week, but let's be real, @JoeBiden's real highlight was learning about @gradientcomfort's heat pumps from the one and only @VinceRomanin (check out the headline photo)

Huge breakthrough in geothermal for @fervoenergy!
And perhaps more impressive, they got a shoutout in @matt_levine 's Money Stuff's "Things Happen" section
1/Today I am thrilled to announce, after years of work, our team @fervoenergy has developed a major advancement in geothermal, proven it at the field scale, and is set to deliver commercial next-gen geothermal decades ahead of schedule. THREAD. https://t.co/5TY16HU19F
Huge news in my favorite topic - cement! @BrimstoneEnergy announces that their decarbonized ordinary Portland cement now has third-party ASTM certification. This clears the path to decarbonize an industry responsible for 8% of global CO2 emissions.
