  • Paul Domjan - Resolving the Energy Trilemma
    Feb 18 2026

    In this episode of Scaling Green-Tech, Katherine Keddie and Matt Jaworski speak with Paul Domjan, founder and Chief Policy and Global Affairs Officer at ENODA, a company building the infrastructure to enable a reliable, affordable renewable energy transition.

    Paul shares his journey from NATO energy security advisor to climate tech founder, explaining why the UK’s 138-year-old power system is fundamentally incompatible with today's renewable energy landscape. He breaks down the technical challenges facing modern grids - from frequency balancing and harmonics, to the growing demands of AI data centres - and explains how ENODA's Prime Exchanger technology is addressing these issues at the distribution transformer level.

    The conversation explores the energy trilemma of security, affordability and sustainability. Paul explains the policy shifts needed to support grid innovation, how the US and Europe are approaching the transition differently, and why resolving the trilemma opens up societal choice rather than forcing trade-offs.

    If you're interested in grid infrastructure and energy, this conversation offers a technical perspective on one of climate tech's most critical challenges.

  • Cam Ross (Green Angel Ventures) - What Makes Climate Tech Investable
    Feb 4 2026

    In Episode 18 of Scaling Green-Tech, Katherine Keddie and Matt Jaworski are joined by Cam Ross, CEO of Green Angel Ventures, one of the UK’s leading early-stage climate tech investors.

    Cam breaks down how Green Angel evaluates over a thousand companies each year to find those with the potential to deliver both strong financial returns and meaningful climate impact. They explore what makes a great pitch, why founders matter so much at the earliest stages, and how angel networks can help startups navigate the rigours of growth.

    The conversation also dives into the realities of scaling climate solutions in capital-intensive and highly regulated industries, and why truly investable climate tech must stand on its own two feet - even if regulation changes. Cam shares top insights on the current funding environment and what founders should focus on when raising capital in 2026.

    If you’re looking for the inside scoop on raising capital, straight from the investors themselves, this episode’s for you.

  • Amandeep Kalra (GreenFlip) - Unlocking the ROI in Decarbonising Homes
    Jan 21 2026

    In this episode of Scaling Green-Tech, Katherine Keddie and Matt Jaworski speak with Amandeep Kalra, Co-Founder and CEO of GreenFlip, about what it really takes to decarbonise homes at scale - and why leading with sustainability alone often misses the mark.


    Amandeep discusses his journey founding GreenFlip, which helps investors identify the homes that deliver the highest ROI from energy upgrades. They explore why comfort, cost, and value are far more powerful drivers of change than carbon targets, and how reframing retrofit as an infrastructure investment can unlock capital, improve tenant outcomes, and future-proof housing stock.


    The conversation also dives into building a company in public, learning through deep customer discovery, and selling before the product is fully built. Along the way, Amandeep offers candid advice for founders in climate tech, property, and retrofit on messaging, hiring, and scaling in a tougher market environment.


    If you’re building in housing, retrofit, or climate tech - or grappling with how to turn impact into real-world adoption - this episode is for you.
