Onto day 2 of sharing lessons from our Q2 Pachamama Ventures Investors & Founders Meeting! ⛰ 2️⃣ Distribution is king. 👑 It is what will propel climate tech solutions from R&D into commercialization, accelerating their go-to-market phase. A clear case study for this is the success of renewables. Once deemed implausible, extremely expensive, and, in some tough audiences, "a cute experiment", they are now undoubtedly a market force that seems unstoppable. I personally cannot wait to see many more climate tech solutions unlock massive distribution at scale so we can all enjoy their economic benefits - besides the more obvious environmental ones. #distribution #climatetech #climateVC

It was a pleasure to be invited to speak at the FT Live #Hydrogen for the second year and bring on stage the perspective of Zhero 'Scaling up the #Infrastructure to #Transport and Store #Hydrogen Globally' was a dynamic panel moderated by Camilla P. and with Miguel Ángel López Borrego , Patrick Gjelstrup Rosenquist and Alicia Eastman Key takeaways from the panel: → “Soft infrastructure” is required before infrastructure development kicks in -> however what is key today is that industry and policy makers: 1. Set right demand signals and really focus on those segments that are “closer to be in the money” rather than the entire hydrogen target market potential 2. Stimulate manufacturers of key equipment (electrolyzers in particular) to scale up significantly and quickly to help driving cost down (and face similar trend emerging from Chinese OEMs) → e-NG (synthetic methane) has the unique and distinctive benefit to be able to leverage on existing infrastructure. -> finally, focusing more and more on where it is most competitive to produce green molecules and have in place consistent offsetting programs globally would also foster faster greenfield development. #hydrogen #energytransition #eNG #zhero #ppws
