How do we make climate tech, and new hardtech platforms in particular, more profitable?

Decarb Connect

Join Alex Cameron, Founder of Decarb Connect and Anne Lyck Smitshuysen, partner in DynElectro for a discussion about how scaling climate tech can make new hardware platforms cost effective and profitable, even in early stages. Anne is a fuel cell specialist and a member of the Forbes 2023 30 under 30 list – she holds a Masters in Physics and Nanotechnology and is focused on bringing unique Power-to-X technologies to market which produce carbon-neutral green fuels.

So much to check out in this conversation, including:

• How do we change and challenge the perception that climate tech can’t be economical of profitable

• What does Anne’s experience of the funding a start up tell us about how to prove to investors that new tech risk is being managed effectively and that early scale developments will be delivered on time?

• What is the market for the green fuels created by their Power-to-X platform?

• Hydrogen is a market that already sees high demand, synthetic fuels will add to this demand so what does this mean for price, risk and opportunity?

• How does DynElectro compete in the electrolyzer market – specifically, what is it about the tech that allows them to make green fuels competitively?

• What are the projects and partnerships have they formed (both with investors like Yara Growth Ventures and other stakeholders)
