Jigar Shah is probably the biggest influencer in climate tech today. He’s also an optimist, with lots of money to put behind that optimism: he runs the U.S. Department of Energy’s Loan Programs Office, with a $400 billion checkbook to spend on the energy transition.
So if you want to understand how global decarbonization is getting financed, and how the most promising climate tech is getting developed and deployed, there’s no better person to binge-listen to.
Here’s two Jigar Shah playlists to make it easy: a Spotify playlist and a YouTube playlist.
And here’s a couple profiles of him, for background:
