The Purpose Made Podcast The Good Energy of Juliet Davenport
In this episode we chat to the incredible Juliet Davenport OBE, and creator of Good Energy – the UK’s first 100% renewable energy company.
Juliet founded Good Energy in 1999, for the purpose of creating a way for people and businesses to be part of the solution to climate change. Having grown up in a high carbon world (her father is the legendary rallying co-driver John Davenport), Juliet spent most of her time as a child either on the side of a race track or watching fast cars in a forest. Juliet went on to study physics at Oxford, before focusing on atmospheric physics and namely the physics of climate change. So whilst the journey of Good Energy may have originated in Oxford, today Good Energy supplies renewable energy to more than 73k households & businesses in the UK, dedications which earned her an OBE in 2013 for services to renewables.
Chatting to Juliet was a pleasure and in today’s episode we discuss her journey, her dogs, Good Energy’s Youth Board, combating the Covid pandemic and the challenges faced and what she envisages for the future once the pandemic abates. So sit back, relax and we do hope you enjoy.
