Eunoia’s Post

I have been exploring and building over the past year aiming to solve critical for critical gaps in the resourcing of climate technology companies, assets and infrastructure. I’m so thrilled to finally introduce Eunoia. Eunoia Group uses proven tools in novel ways to help climate funders and founders map, derisk, and accelerate pre-development and deployment. We partner with companies across sectors — from energy and transportation to urban agriculture and construction to hardware information systems, circular design, and carbon management. Our approach integrates data and analytics, innovative capital strategies, and shared insights and stories to power a new climate reality. You can read more about the why and what in this article I wrote here: https://lnkd.in/etA4JSRF #climatetech #infrastructure #FOAK #climateinvestment #climatefinance

The key message from #ClimateWeekNYC was clear: we need to move faster and smarter. So, what's standing in our way? For the hard-to-abate sectors pushing to bridge the gap between innovation and commercialisation, several critical barriers are stalling progress: 1️⃣ Financing Gaps: The dreaded "Valley of Death" is very real for first-of-a-kind (FOAK) projects. High costs and perceived risks make it tough for these technologies to secure early-stage investment. Investors are hesitant due to complex scaling needs and delayed returns. Is there an opportunity for the large (energy) players to co-ordinate their efforts in FOAK and pool risk? Yes. 2️⃣ The Offtake Conundrum: Offtake agreements are necessary to secure financing, but financing is necessary to secure these agreements! This stalemate is blocking final investment decisions in the transformative capital intensive projects, slowing our pathway to lower carbon world. We need early believers willing to back these ventures and pave the way. Less 'fast followers', more 'first movers'. 3️⃣ Regulatory Uncertainty: Evolving regulations — especially in emerging sectors like green hydrogen and sustainable aviation fuels (SAF) — are adding another layer of risk, making decision-makers hesitant. Clearer policy signals could unlock stalled investments and accelerate deployment. Many of these challenges boil down to a data gap. There’s uncertainty around how different technologies will evolve and what their true impact will be. That’s why Atoma Research is on a mission to provide the data and insights needed to de-risk investments and drive capital to the most impactful climate tech solutions. 💡 Ready to go from 'first-of-a-kind' to 'next-of-a-kind'? Reach out to see how we can help your institution confidently navigate the future of climate tech. Thanks again to the Innovate UK team for supporting Atoma Research as part of the UK trade delegation.

🌍 Today is World Environment Day! 🚨According to the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification, up to 40% of the planet's land is degraded, directly affecting half of the world's population and threatening about half of global GDP ($44 trillion). The number and duration of droughts have increased by 29% since 2000: without urgent action, droughts could affect more than three-quarters of the world's population by 2050. 🛰️This is where #spacetech comes to action: Space-based technologies, such as remotely sensed data, have enhanced scientific understanding of water cycles, air quality, forests and other aspects of the natural environment. These surveying and monitoring tools provide valuable information on the state of ecosystems, which offers objective support for positive environmental action, including conservation and sustainable resource management. 💦 With our INNO4CFIs Project, we are leveraging cutting-edge technologies and nature-based solutions to promote sustainable environmental practices, with a focus on carbon farming, reforestation, and agroforestry systems to increase CO2 uptake while nurturing vital environmental benefits like freshwater production, soil restoration and biodiversity enhancement starting with planting 6000 trees in Europe. Discover the #greenrevolution👇🏽 INNO4CFIs is a project co-funded by the European Regional Development Fund through the innovative #I3 instrument and coordinated by Fondazione E. Amaldi.

📢 Exciting news from our Rural Spain ClimAccelerator! 🚀 We've just wrapped up our Second Stage #ClimateImpact journey with a fantastic dive into the Impact Hypothesis Demo Webinar, delivered by Impact Forecast and led by the expert trainer Csaba Dudás. 💡 🍀 Impact Forecast is an allied partner for ClimAccelerators, offering expert services and impact tools like the #ImpactHypothesis.  The Life Cycle Assessment #LCA tool supports teams in making an initial assessment of their potential climate impact by giving them access to impact data early in their development process. 💫 It requires teams to model their innovation against a baseline solution, prompting them to define their sustainable value driver and make it transparent. The outcome is a concise impact statement that indicates the extent to which a mitigation, enabler, or adaptation project is impacting the climate.  🎯 With the Impact Hypothesis in hand and access to the Impact Hypothesis tool, our startups can work on improving their impact potential and showcase it to the world. Special thanks to our impact-driven startups for your commitment and engagement: Water2kW, Agrolinera, FLOC Ammonia solutions, ForestChain, #Xizan, ROORAL Tunnll, Nellie Atlantic SL, Planetai Space Group, and Clic Recycle® Zenit. 🌍 Let's continue driving change and making a meaningful difference together.
