CLEANTECH VENTURE DAY THEMES
Reducing negative environmental impacts through energy efficiency, sustainable use of resources, and environmental protection activities, are fundamental to climate tech and cleantech innovation solutions.
-
For solutions that create energy from renewable and or zero-emission sources which may include but not be limited to alternative fuels, energy management, distribution and storage.
-
Innovations that are enabling the move towards net-zero with solutions that might include logistics, electric vehicles, EV charging, mobility as a service, shared mobility and fuel cells.
-
This theme seeks to find solutions that make buildings cleaner and smarter through automation, sustainable building materials, and new technologies that increase efficiency.
-
Whether from the sharing economy, single-use plastics or agri-tech waste, this theme looks to all solutions which design out waste whilst reusing, recovering and regenerating materials.
