A few years ago we focused on the challenge of cooling and wanted to find a technology that was highly efficient, didn't rely on nasty refrigerants and ideally allowed for load shifting... only one company fit the bill: Blue Frontier, Inc. Very exciting to see MIT Tech Review once again feature them. #Cooling #SustainableCities #Gigacorn #ClimateTech https://lnkd.in/erCaZnZ6
Your future air conditioner might act like a battery

Congratulations to AtmosZero for being one of the finalists in the The Clean Fight Wells Fargo NYSERDA Empire Technology Prize focused on heating load of buildings across New York #SustainableBuildings #SustainableCities
Today AtmosZero was named a Finalist for the Empire Technology Prize! 🏆🥳 The Empire Technology Prize is a $10 million program to develop and demonstrate novel solutions to decarbonize the heating load of New York’s tall commercial and multifamily buildings. The prize is sponsored by the New York State Energy Research and Development Authority (NYSERDA) and Wells Fargo, and administered by The Clean Fight. We are proud to be part of this critical program! 🏙️ Buildings are responsible for 70% of NYC’s GHG emissions. 🆒 Buildings face disruptive and costly retrofits, potentially requiring tenant displacement to achieve their decarbonization goals. 💡 A perfect use case for Boiler 2.0! Our technology is an air-sourced, drop-in, electrified steam boiler replacement with zero carbon emissions and utilizes existing building steam infrastructure. Congratulations to the six other Finalists, Ambient, Clean Heat Technologies, ENERIN AS, Hydronic Shell Technologies, Johnson Controls, and Miller Proctor Nickolas, Inc.! 🥳 📚 Read the full release here: https://on.ny.gov/3ydA3XM #EmpireTechnologyPrize #NewYork #cleanenergy #heatpumps #decarbonization #innovation

This week in London also saw The Earthshot Prize (for which we are a nominating partner) host a number of events convening solutions, investors and partners. An amazing gathering of mission-aligned minds. Thank you for allowing us to participate. Margarita Skarkou Christian Jølck Rahul Parekh 🙏🏻
At Yesterday's event, 50 Earthshot Prize Finalists and portfolio solutions were invited to join the first-ever Innovation Camp in London, the birthplace of The Earthshot Prize. Hosted by Global Alliance Founding Partner Bloomberg Philanthropies, the programme included skill-building sessions to challenge, stretch and build on their ideas, as well as invaluable networking opportunities. We heard from the filmmaker Richard Curtis, artist ES Devlin, and Earthshot Prize Council Member Stella McCartney who confirmed our Finalists are working in "the most fashionable industry!"

The urban built environment significantly contributes to global carbon emissions through energy consumption, transportation, construction, and waste management. However, it also presents a tremendous opportunity for impactful change. By enhancing energy efficiency in buildings, adopting renewable energy sources, promoting sustainable transportation, utilising low-carbon construction materials, and improving waste management practices, cities can drastically reduce their carbon footprint. Given that urban areas account for over 70% of CO2 emissions, these efforts can lead to substantial global impact. Transforming our cities into sustainable, low-carbon environments is crucial for mitigating climate change and ensuring a resilient future. The choices we make today will shape a cleaner, greener tomorrow. On our next episode of the Unheated podcast, Theia Ventures hosted Rahul Parekh from 2150, a UK-based property tech fund, with a strong focus on urban technology, the built environment, and sustainability. The fund priorities early-stage companies that innovate in the design, construction, and powering of cities. Rahul Parekh speaks about how 2150 particularly focuses on ventures that can achieve significant reductions in carbon emissions—aiming for those capable of cutting down emissions by a billion tons annually—while also being commercially viable.
