🌍 Last week the Zero Emission Generators Accelerator Programme’s Ignite activity took place in Lagos, Nigeria. The activity supported 16 innovative businesses that are currently in phase 1 of their ZE-Gen projects and preparing for phase 2, which requires collaboration in country. We had an incredible week engaging with a variety of stakeholders in Nigeria, with highlights including: hearing about the work PAM Africa ( Dr. Patrick Agese ) and it’s subsidiaries are conducting in the energy space during the inaugural PAM Day; attending Nigeria Energy where James C. hosted a technical seminar during which the 16 businesses had the opportunity to present their projects to a room full of energy stakeholders, followed by a reception hosted by Eauxwell Nigeria Limited for networking; meetings with CEIP | Circular Economy Innovation Partnership , Innov8 Hub , IHS Towers , African Industries Group , Sterling Bank , Nigeria Climate Innovation Center , Oando Clean Energy Limited ( Oando Plc ), Novastar Ventures , and All On ; and visiting Eauxwell Nigeria’s solar power plant at the Federal University Of Agriculture, Abeokuta . Throughout the week the cohort presented their projects/technology and engaged in fruitful discussion with the stakeholders and one another, which was exciting to see ahead of phase 2 of the ZE-Gen programme!

Undaunted: Tackling climate change with innovation

We're excited to announce that Aed Energy has been selected among twenty projects aiming to advance reliable, cost-effective renewable energy-based alternatives to fossil-fueled generators in the Philippines and Nigeria, as part of the first phase of the Zero Emission Generators (ZE-Gen) Technology Accelerator. ZE-Gen is a collaborative initiative led by The Carbon Trust and Innovate UK , with support from the IKEA Foundation and UK aid through the UK Government’s Ayrton Fund . Launched at COP27 with an initial commitment of over £19 million and an ambition to scale to £100 million, ZE-Gen is designed to tackle barriers, accelerate innovation and fund activities to build a thriving, competitive market for renewable alternatives to fossil-fuelled generators. Of the estimated 25 million fossil-fueled generators used worldwide, three million are in Nigeria and one million in the Philippines, costing billions annually in expensive fossil fuel consumption. In Nigeria alone, daily diesel consumption averages 14 million litres due to unreliable on-grid power, with Nigerians spending over N1 trillion (2.2 billion USD) in Q2 2023 alone, according to the Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Agency (NMDPRA). Despite their critical function, the unsubsidised cost of electricity from diesel generators can exceed $400 per megawatt hour (MWh), placing significant economic strain on dependent regions. Our project aims to demonstrate a low-cost, clean, and reliable alternative: modular energy storage technology paired with intermittent renewable energy in a deployable configuration. At commercial scale, Aed Energy’s transformative solid-state engine delivers up to 100 hours of stored energy using very low-cost, abundant materials, with the ultimate goal of achieving an affordable roundtrip levelised cost of electricity (LCOE) under $100 per MWh. We’re looking forward to working with our partners in Nigeria and advancing our mission to accelerate access to affordable, clean energy worldwide. @ Zero Emission Generators @ Ayrton Fund @ Transforming Energy Access @ IKEA Foundation @ The Carbon Trust @ Innovate UK

It’s a wrap! We’ve had a busy Q2 at all the various climate tech events, and were lucky enough to get a few chances to contribute to panel conversations. Hopefully our paths crossed with you at one of these events! We also announced our new investments in Aed Energy pre-seed round, and in Cambridge Electric Cement ’s seed round. Our Research and Analytics team published new blog posts spilling the tea on TEA, and what we need to modernise the grid. We also shared our thoughts about spinouts, carbon management and why we only invest in hard tech. 🔥 Aed Energy https://lnkd.in/e2CMs6fW 🏭 Cambridge Electric Cement https://lnkd.in/ejryghMP ☕️ TEA https://lnkd.in/eFwxRJRh ⚡️ Grid https://lnkd.in/eiCgeJzH 🎓 Spinouts https://lnkd.in/eQaFbMwP ⚛️ Hard tech https://lnkd.in/ecEzK5ZU 🌬 Carbon management https://lnkd.in/d9FXYwQQ We’ve got lots of plans for the summer - and a few announcements coming soon 👀 - but we’d love to hear from you if you are working on something new. 🍁 And, looking forward to seeing you all again in September.

What innovative startup would you create if energy costs were nearly free? 🌞 The rapid expansion of solar energy is reshaping industries globally with no signs of slowing down. Forecasts consistently underestimate its potential. Don't believe solar energy works at night? As The Economist states battery prices have plummeted by 90%, and there are emerging long-lasting energy solutions such as Aed Energy in our portfolio. Unlike traditional energy sources reliant on finite resources like oil, solar power leverages abundant materials like silicon-rich sand and human creativity for solar cell production. So, at some point this century founders will think about businesses based on nearly free energy. #SolarEnergy #RenewableFuture #CleanTech #climatetech #startups 💡🔋🌍
