Decarb Connect

 Host: Alex Cameron, Founder & CEO, Industrial Connect Group Guest: Rolf Kuby, Director General, Euromines An EV is not carbon free on the day it rolls off the line. A wind turbine has a footprint before it generates a single watt. The materials these things are built from carry emissions too, and right now, most climate policy either ignores that or assumes someone else in the value chain wil...

Host: Alex Cameron, Founder & CEO, Decarb Connect  Guest: Bilal Hussain, Co-founder, Artio Carbon Carbon markets have a credibility problem, and most of the proposed fixes sit on the same side of the transaction.

Marta breaks down how Paebbl is navigating that from the inside, wit...

Host: Tom Angus, Director of Conferences, Decarb Connect Guest: Oskar Schortz, Co-Founder & CCO, GyroPlant   In partnership with Urban Future Lab   Every hydroponic farm in the world depends on growing substrates - the rockwool, coco coir, or peat that plants grow in and almost all of it ends up in landfill after a single use. It’s a supply chain problem hiding in plain sight, embedded in one...

Host: Tom Angus, Director of Conferences, Decarb Connect Guest: Tom Fenton, CEO, Senze   In partnership with Urban Future Lab   The UK's housing stock is responsible for a significant share of the country's carbon emissions, and the estimated cost of retrofitting it sits at an eye-watering £500 billion. But what if a large portion of that spend is being directed at the wrong interventions, based o...

First-of-a-Kind (FOAK) projects are critical to scaling breakthrough decarbonization technologies, yet they don’t fit neatly into traditional funding models. Investors, developers, and strategic partners need to navigate a complex ecosystem to make these projects bankable and viable. In this episode, I talk with David Yeh, a veteran climate tech investor and one of the key voices from our TechInve...

Who will pay for industrial products with low or no carbon footprint?  Received wisdom is that people won’t pay a green premium, and yet consumers and many manufacturers further down value chains are keen to have access to products that don’t carry high co2 intensity and see value in the environmental benefits of those products. So where these markets exist, albeit nascent, what levers exist that...
