With the energy transition, energy storage is becoming essential for decarbonizing the electricity sector. In our Deep Dive, we explore Long-Duration Energy Storage (LDES) and how it tackles the challenges of integrating renewable energy, ensuring sustainable power delivery over extended periods. 🍃 

Discover the various emerging LDES technologies, their potential applications, and the key requirements for their long-term success. This is not only a compelling opportunity for investors but also a crucial area for government focus.

We are thrilled to announce our new investment in the ClimateTech startup Planeteers!

Planeteers is revolutionizing the way we combat climate change by accelerating the natural weathering process. Their technology transforms industrial CO2 into mineralized water, permanently storing it and counteracting ocean acidification. 
  
We are eager to embark on this journey with Planeteers and alongside our co-investors BonVenture, Energie 360° and the Carbon Drawdown Initiative. Together, we will work towards keeping our planetary boundaries intact and fostering a sustainable future.

🧀 "How does the perfect cheese taste? Eva Sommer laughs – she hasn't eaten cheese in over 20 years." Now, her startup Fermify is revolutionizing vegan cheese using Precision Fermentation. Based in Vienna, Fermify aims to produce plant-based cheese that matches the taste and texture of traditional cheese. With the goal to make vegan cheese affordable by 2027, Fermify is set to transform the global dairy industry. 

We at Clima Now are proud to have Fermify in our portfolio. 🤝

🌍 This week, we participated in the largest #swisscleantechdialogue to date. What we loved most was the creation of a space for business leaders to discuss the crucial role of companies in successful decarbonization. 

Here are our key takeaways, where we see our approach reflected:

🌱 Environmental pioneer Bertrand Piccard emphasized that achieving #NetZero requires modernization, presenting numerous opportunities for businesses. 
At Clima Now, we pave this path by supporting solutions that drive positive climate impact.

🤝 Maren Urner, neuroscientist and professor of media psychology, encouraged asking better questions, overcoming polarized thinking, and telling new stories. 
Partnerships are crucial at Clima Now. 😉 Looking at you Patagonia, BKW AG & Graubünden Ferien for #climanowspotlight!

👣 In breakout sessions, discussions focused on how businesses are already moving towards Net Zero and - particularly interesting for us - where there's room for improvement. 
We are closely examining where Swiss politics can step in to ensure society and the economy are on the right track with our PACT initiative.

Thank you, swisscleantech, for the diverse voices and the motivation to drive a climate-resilient economy! 💚

On Sunday, Switzerland said YES to secure electricity supply with renewable energy 🎉 
This accelerates the pace of development: by 2035, enough electricity production capacity should be built to achieve energy independence.

Energy storage plays a crucial role in the energy transition. The fluctuations in supply and demand need to be balanced, requiring technologies for storage and release that can be deployed on a large scale.

🔋 In one of our Deep Dives, we have explored Long Term Energy Storage in detail: https://lnkd.in/eWWJZr4r. 

Green Energy Transition is one of our investment focuses. If you want to stay updated on the topics we will dive into in the future, 📬 sign up: https://lnkd.in/eK9vQWCd.
