  • Trygve Mongstad - Over Easy Solar
    Jun 16 2026
    Aligning solar energy production with actual grid demand remains one of the hardest challenges in the energy transition, often resulting in peak generation when we need it the least. The industry continues to rely on traditional, tilted rooftop arrays. Over Easy Solar replaces these conventional setups by introducing vertical, double-sided solar panels. By optimizing these arrays for east-west installations to generate power from both sides of the glass, Over Easy Solar achieves an industry-leading bifaciality of 96%. This innovative design maximizes energy production precisely during the morning and evening peak hours when the grid demands it most. Trygve joins the podcast to talk about the idea behind their vertical arrays, why the product is so crucial for the energy transition and their niche in green roofs.

  • William Ramsay - Sixteen44
    May 26 2026
    When we think about climate change, we most of the time think about CO2. But neutralizing methane, a gas with an even higher global warming potential, when it is too spread out to simply catch and burn remains a massive challenge for global climate efforts. The industry continues to rely on traditional methods like flaring that only work on highly concentrated leaks. Sixteen44 replaces these limited approaches by introducing a unique technology to safely break down dilute methane right at the source. Sixteen44 acts as a high-tech fire extinguisher for hotspots like landfills and mines, permanently eliminating the methane and significantly reducing its warming impact. William, Sixteen44's co-founder, joins the podcast to talk about the technology behind their breakthrough process, the importance of targeting emission hotspots and the company's ambitious roadmap.

  • Phillip Grimm - Pluvion
    May 5 2026
    Managing extraneous water and optimizing sewer networks remains one of the hardest challenges in the water industry, requiring costly and labor-intensive monitoring. Utilities continue to rely on these inefficient traditional methods. Pluvion changes that by introducing intelligent, AI-driven software to the wastewater sector. By analyzing data from existing level sensors to efficiently detect and localize water infiltration, Pluvion provides a cost-effective system that enables real-time monitoring and predictive maintenance. Philipp, Pluvion's CEO and co-founder, talks about the technology behind their breakthrough product, the power of real-time data and the company's vision for a sustainable water future.
