Thanks for the chance to share more about what we are building to the Green Building Advisor network, Justin R. Wolf! Its a privilege to share the page with such great company as Carbon Upcycling Technologies and Nth Cycle.

Proud to share that our Founder and CTO, Dr. Asegun Henry, has been selected as a 2024 #Grist50 climate leader for the work he has done to bring change to our communities and invent a better future. Explore the full list now. (from Grist) https://lnkd.in/gkac4p7v

Thanks to Andrew King and CNET for a great conversation with our CEO Arvin Ganesan earlier this summer, and an insightful article on when and how the cost saving benefits of renewable energy will be reflected in consumer's power bills. "One out of five people can't afford to pay their electricity bill in the United States, so to have the solution fall exclusively on their shoulders is not fair, especially when governments and utilities are much better poised to deliver the solutions."  https://lnkd.in/dUZA8miN

Our team was thrilled to take part in the Breakthrough Energy #BESummit last week. Despite an exhausting schedule, we left London energized to tackle our generation’s greatest challenge — #climatechange — by decarbonizing the grid using #thermalbatteries to store energy for long durations #LDES.   A particular highlight was being featured in the Summit’s Innovation Showcase. Arvin Ganesan and Christina Belsito spoke with hundreds of people — investors, corporates, policymakers, and Breakthrough Energy’s own founder, Bill Gates — about Fourth Power.    Armed with wisdom from those who have forged the first-of-a-kind (#FOAK) path ahead of us, it’s time to get back to work. #GoFourth   #renewableenergy #decarbonizedgrid #energytransition #energyisprosperity

We need to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions from 51 billion tons a year to zero. Fourth Power's mission is to decarbonize the grid by making #renewable electricity as reliable, durable and affordable as fossil via #LDES (long duration energy storage). We're excited to engage with climate leaders from across the Breakthrough Energy network this week at the #BESummit24 in London! Come find in the Electricity room of the Innovation Showcase.
