Naked Energy: The case for solar thermal energy

05/22/23 • 27 min

Christophe Williams is the CEO and co-founder of Naked Energy, a start-up revolutionising solar with the world’s highest energy density solar technology and with a mission to change energy for good.
Today, heat accounts for over half (51%) of global energy demand and is still generated primarily through the burning of fossil fuels. And, according to the International Energy Agency, solar thermal and geothermal will meet 75% of all heat demand by 2050.
If you are serious about decarbonising, you must tackle heat. And if you are concerned about the cost, solar thermal presents the solution.
Join us as we discuss the vital role of solar thermal in the energy transition, how Naked Energy is transforming the way we heat our buildings, and Christophe's insight from a lifelong career in marketing to pivoting to renewable energy.

Phelas: Liquid air energy storage (LAES)

Leon Haupt is co-founder of Phelas, a start-up using a newly developed thermodynamic process to store energy in liquid air with the long-term vision of becoming their own energy-storage operator. Doing so, they align their business and sustainability incentives to bring a long lifetime, low maintenance storage system to market.

Tune-in as we discuss how Phelas is leveraging their Energy Storage Optimization (ESO) platform to enter the CAPEX-dominated market of grid-scale energy storage and build their storage asset-base. We also talk about the dynamics of being in a large team of 5 founders and Phelas’ problem-driven approach to innovation.
