Our Co-Founder & -CEO Jodok had a great experience discussing solar, batteries, heat pumps and the role of hydro in the context of the energy transition at Bits & Pretzels this year with an excellent panel: Natasha Jones, Janice Goodenough, Babak Tighnavard hosted by Paulina Jänsch. Key points from the conversation: 💰 Financing: Electrification requires billions in investment each year, but many households and SMEs can’t afford expensive upgrades. Flexible financing options like installment payments will play a crucial role in making clean energy more accessible. 🔋 Residential storage: Home battery storage is rapidly gaining momentum, allowing homeowners to store excess solar energy, reduce grid dependence, and optimize energy use during peak times. 📜 Regulatory challenges: Across Europe, varying regulations and the complexity of subsidies create significant hurdles for implementing renewable technologies. Streamlined policies and support systems are vital for accelerating the transition. 🌍 Grid challenges: The energy grid is struggling almost everywhere. Transparent, digitized systems are essential to keep up with the pace of the energy transition. Ultimately, no single renewable technology can achieve the energy transition on its own. It’s the combination of all these solutions that will pave the way to a sustainable future. #energytransition #climatetech #renewables #cloover
