Boson Energy

6 min talk on how we can unleash the unadulterated power of sustainable next-gen #WASTEtoX in #electrification of transport where grids fail us – and why incineration is the 'fax machine of waste management'. Seemingly appreciated by the mostly 'non-energy' crowd, so don't hesitate to give it a go: https://lnkd.in/ekWztka3 Thank you once again Paperjam Club, Stéphanie Kitoskis de Boutselis, Sarah Devos, Pedro Castilho, Michel Grevesse-Sovet, Mike Koedinger and the Paperjam Club for the invitation, support, and a cool event! More reflections on the event and my fellow speakers, Angélique Bartolini, Madhumalti Sharma, Stéphanie Noël, Tobias Stüber, Félicie Weycker, @Bettina Steinbrügge, Matthieu Bracchetti, Luc Neuberg, and Pascal Rapallino in this post from last week: https://lnkd.in/erfAN66r Luxinnovation GIE, Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology (LIST), Luxembourg Trade and Invest, Luxembourg Strategy, Tech Tour, Solar Impulse Foundation

Found myself before a 'non-energy' crowd, to highlight the #risk we are running of crashing #electrification – and the awesome #opportunities that #waste represents to catalyse it... in 6 minutes... which is a formidable challenge 😊 Judging by the curiosity afterwards, it sounds like it landed ok and opened some eyes. Including surprise at the fact that there is enough otherwise non-recyclable waste in Germany to electrify 95% of heavy duty trucking – without drawing a single kWhe of power from the grid. Just to make sure it is clear and we avoid that rabbit hole in the comments, NO hydrogen trucks here, only electric trucks. Also no burning of waste. Native carbon capture. At or below diesel parity on commercial terms. That is the whole point. UPDATE: The 6 minute clip is out now: https://lnkd.in/eqy2kyGM As a fellow entrepreneur, I was humbled and inspired (over-used words on Linkedin, but what do you do?) to get a glimpse of... ...how Angélique Bartolini, Madhumalti Sharma, and Stéphanie Noël evolved out of incredible entrepreneurial challenges, ...how Tobias Stüber challenges his team at flibco.com to thrive both at work and life, ...how Félicie Weycker navigates all kinds of agendas at Fonds Kirchberg to create affordable, dense and vibrant living space (Luxembourg not exactly known for either of those), ...how Bettina Steinbrügge handles the challenges of cyber security, politicized art, and sustainability in the museum world at Mudam Luxembourg, ...the potential of VR/AI technology that Matthieu Bracchetti shared (including a stunt that had the audience blush); the professional risk management perspective from Luc Neuberg, PhD (no risk, no business); and, as we are in Luxembourg, the financial perspective, that Pascal Rapallino bravely stepped up to deliver. I will also bring a new personal screen size record with me home 😉 Thank you Paperjam Club, Stéphanie Kitoskis de Boutselis, Sarah Devos, Pedro Castilho, Michel Grevesse-Sovet, Mike Koedinger for the invitation, support, and a cool event!

Key takeaway from the New York Climate Week: A lot of players are talking about First of a Kind (FOAK) installations of promising technologies as key to the climate and energy transition, which it clearly is. We have not seen the talk about it translate into a lot of action so far, but one of the things I take away from climate week is that a lot of important actors are coming together and moving on FOAK, both public, multi-lateral, and private money. And as usual the momentum is picking up faster in the US is than in the EU. This was my first time at climate week, people tried to prepare but was still overwhelmed. I am still trying to structure my thoughts main takeaways from the week, so I guess a follow up post will be needed :) I would also like thank the amazing team who brought me and 20 other outstanding climate-base companies as part of the first Israeli delegation to the climate week. A huge shout out to Lior Gaon from the Israel Export Institute מכון היצוא , Anat Katz and Max Coën from the Israel Economic Mission to the USA - East Coast Ronit Eshel from the ISRAELI INNOVATION AGENCY and to Noam Sonennberg from PLANETech - Climate Change Technologies. The work prior and during the week in NY was amazing. the week was packed with events and net working opportunities and have learned a lot and now will recap and prepare the follow ups.   Luxembourg Trade and Investment Office Tel Aviv Luxinnovation GIE Rotem Arad Alon Mashkovich Tamar Moise, Ph.D #decarbonsiation #distributedEnergy #WasteTreatment #Infrastructure

This partnership is a true milestone for Boson Energy, in that it unlocks the combined capabilities of the Siemens verticals Process Automation and Electrification & Automation, and Siemens #SmartInfrastructure to support our standardization and rapid scaling. This is Siemens leaning into circularity, decarbonisation, reducing infrastructure stress, automation and digitisation of waste-to-X; and the vision and drive of respective vertical CEOs Axel Lorenz and Stephan May (co-signing the MoU) and their teams, especially in Sweden, have been instrumental in the process.    Original press release on the Siemens website here: https://lnkd.in/eEYCfmCZ   The cooperation allows Boson to focus on our core activities, delivery and quality of the reactor system, with Siemens adding chemical and electrical engineering, instrumentation and controls, all products around smart charging, smart infrastructure, digitalisation and AI – covering the full value chain of DC-DC fast charging and DC-AC power grid support, and the infrastructure around it.    To all 'hydrogen pragmatists' out there... this is not about catering to an H2 vehicle market that doesn't exist and requiring massive investments in a large-scale H2 infrastructure that doesn't exist. This is a about getting rid of inefficient and inflexible incineration and landfilling – to realise the full local resource potential of the otherwise non-recyclable waste that we all produce. We do this by ’cracking’ rather than burning the waste and deploying  the  resulting H2 as local H2-powered fast charging and H2-powered grid support; and avoiding expensive large-scale compression, storage, and transport of H2 – including process-native carbon capture without expensive add-ons. The result is electrification of heavy-duty transport that is cheaper than diesel and relieving and supporting rather than stressing the grid.    The press release references our target of 300 plants, While that may sound ambitious, we need to think big to address the global challenges of infrastructure stress, decarbonization, and sustainable waste management. Keep in mind that it represents less than 4% of the Europe MENA (Middle East and North Africa) market potential; that counts some 300 million tons of waste per year going to dumpsites, landfills, and incineration – at immense cost to environment, health and climate, and an utter and complete waste of the valuable, potentially profitable, and democratic resource that is our own non-recyclable waste. https://lnkd.in/et-AxKi9 Thank you Thierry Labro and Paperjam / Delano for once again covering what we are up to with speed and ambition!

PLANETech was a highlight last week. Very encouraging to see the waves of Israeli climate tech startups rolling into the local ecosystem and moving it forward. PLANETech - Climate Change Technologies is one of few events where we exhibit, and we are already looking forward to next year.    Boson CTO Liran Dor engaged in conversation on ‘electrifying everything’ with panelists Nir Brenmiller, Amir Livne, Adi Vagman, and moderator Itamar Weizman). Liran, as usual, made the case for the critical role and game changing potential of otherwise non-recyclable #waste in relieving stress on #infrastructure, #environment, and #climate – by e.g. driving local grid-independent #fastcharging of heavy-duty vehicles by local #Hydrogen produced from waste. Cheaper than diesel.    Thank you Plantech team Noam Sonennberg, Gal Sharon, Deborah Kreis et al for another inspiring event in a beautiful location – and also Impact Nation, for the spotlight and interview during the event. Looking forward to seeing how that turned out. Luxinnovation GIE, Luxembourg Trade and Invest, Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology (LIST), Embassy of Israel to Belgium and Luxembourg

There is enough non-recyclable #waste in any city to #electrify more than half of all commercial transport in that city...! We are back at PLANETech - Climate Change Technologies this week. We had a great time last year and we are very pleased to be back! If you are curious about the role of non-recyclable waste in reducing #infrastructure stress, electrifying transport, and #decarbonsation, reach out or visit our booth to talk to our CTO Liran Dor. Boson Energy provides H2-powered grid-independent DC fast-charging, H2-powered grid support, green heat and cooling, and green methanol – to radically boost local energy security, reduce infrastructure and grid stress, cut emissions, and eliminate diesel imports.

The DeepTech Alliance Clean Energy 2024 program kickoff at HighTechXL last week was a great experience. Interesting conversations with corporates and investors with a true interest in industrial #cleantech / #deeptech; as well as exchanges with peers on challenges within funding, grant applications, business/execution models, attracting talent, etc, etc. Looking very much forward to engaging with the rest of the program. Especially pleased to catch up with fellow Swedish Advanced Thermal Treatment peers Rolf Ljunggren of Cortus Energy AB (CE) and Henrik Båge of Phoenix BioPower. Thank you DeepTech Alliance for the invitation to join and HighTechXL for the organisation and the beautiful venue. Pictures below for a bit of self-centred attention 😉 ...and showing off the venue.

"Global leading climate scaleups in climate tech" is some title to live up to... 😊 As usual, I will highlight #waste as a key to #decarbonisation, #electrification, zero emission transport, and reducing infrastructure stress – and the importance of building solutions and business models that are profitable at #fossilparity Don't miss our #WEC500 Panel Tuesday morning if you are at 24th World Energy Congress this week. I look very much forward to seeing all the presentations. Thank you Platform Zero for the opportunity and all the work that the team put into shining a spotlight on all the tech and startups that are supposed to 'get this done' – together with finance who is ideally not just talking about impact and climate tech over cocktails, but actually putting substantial money into bringing these next-gen technologies commercial.

Platform Zero went all in on the superlatives and I am blushing here...☺️. I still look very much forward to sharing what we are up to at Boson Energy at 24th World Energy Congress in Rotterdam on April 23rd. This includes how we deploy #Hydrogen from non-recyclable waste as H2-powered #fastcharging, H2-powered grid support, #HRS, and #greenmethanol. Also how we do this at fossil parity without subsidies and in a 'platform agnostic' approach – effectively making us independent of a #hydrogeneconomy and its large-scale infrastructure happening. Reading through the plug below, I should stress that the only 'innovation strategies' I am at the forefront of here, is possibly how we communicate around what we do 😊 I am grateful every day to be able to leave the #deeptech innovation and engineering to our brilliant tech team. My colleagues focusing on project and business development also tirelessly innovate every day – as there would be no FIDs or large scale roll-out of disruptive deeptech without it. Thank you Platform Zero and 24th World Energy Congress for the opportuity and the spotlight! Luxinnovation GIE Luxembourg Institute of Science and Technology (LIST) Luxembourg Trade and Invest PS. I will also take the opportunity to flag that we have our first institutional round open now, so don't hesitate to reach out, should you be curious to know more.
