Leaders in Cleantech

Dr. Fabian Lemke is a co-founder and managing director at nuventura. Together with nuventura, Fabian is working on eliminating SF6 – the most potent greenhouse gas – from the electricity grid. Their innovative switchgear technology simply replaces SF6 with dry air, which not only leads to environmental benefits, but also enables significant performance advantages.A switchgear is an absolutely essential component of an electricity grid. It controls and distributes electrical power flow in the electricity grid network. Existing gas insulated switchgear (GIS) predominantly use sulphur hexafluoride (SF6) – the most potent greenhouse gas in existence - as an electrically insulating medium and often also as a breaking medium. The gas is 23,500 times stronger than CO2 in terms of its global warming potential (1). It also has an extremely long lifetime of 3,200 years (2). Our aim is to eliminate SF6 from the electrical grid while improving the switchgear ‘s performance.Prior to nuventura, Fabian worked for 5 years in the energy sector for McKinsey and 3 years as a founder and CEO of Sanubi. He holds an engineering degree in Reactor Technology from the RWTH Aachen University and a PhD in Engineering from the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology. Fabian is a proud father of two little girls.Fabian Lemke on Linked In https://www.linkedin.com/in/fabianlemke/ nuventura on Linked In https://www.linkedin.com/company/nuventura-gmbh/ nuventura website https://www.nuventura.com/21 Lessons for the 21st Century - Yuval Noah Harari https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/1787330672/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i2Getting to Yes: Negotiating an agreement without giving in - William Ury & Roger Fisher https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/1847940935/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_bibl_vppi_i0Twitter https://twitter.com/weekincleantechFacebook https://www.facebook.com/thisweekincleantech/Instagram https://www.instagram.com/davidhunt2013/About Hyperion Search: At Hyperion Search, we specialize in building world-class teams for the cleantech and energy transition sectors.

It was very flattering when a Google Moonshot company, invested in by Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos funded Breakthrough Energy Ventures, called to ask for help to scale their team. I took the opportunity whilst in Boston, MA, meeting the team, to record this episode with CEO Ramya Swaminathan, and to hear what’s it like to have such auspicious origins and investors, and what pressure that brings.About our guestRamya Swaminathan joined Malta from Rye Development, where she was CEO, co-founder and Member of the Board of FFP New Hydro. Under her leadership, Rye Development grew to be the leading developer of new hydropower projects in the United States and its portfolio of development projects, held at its holdco affiliate, FFP New Hydro, advanced from concept through FERC licensing and late stage development financing. She was also responsible for the expansion of Rye’s platform into energy storage, with the addition of two sizable pumped hydro storage development projects in the Pacific Northwest. At Rye Development, Ms. Swaminathan led a multi-disciplinary team, with specialists in engineering and construction, regulatory and environmental aspects, and power marketing. She also led the company through several financing rounds, both at the platform and the project levels.Prior to her work in the hydropower space, Ms. Swaminathan was a public finance banker, most recently as a Director at UBS, where she focused on public power clients and senior managed more than $10 billion in financings. Ms. Swaminathan holds a Master’s in Public Policy from the John F. Kennedy School of Government and a BA in Anthropology from Amherst College.The Malta concept is built upon well-established principles in thermodynamics for a system that stores energy as heat (in molten salt) and as cold (in a chilled liquid). The project was incubated at X, Alphabet’s Moonshot Factory, which applies audacious thinking and radical new technologies to solve the world’s most challenging problems. Based on the research they’d seen, X identified the Malta system as a product that had the potential to unlock a wealth of inexpensive clean energy to address global energy demands.X’s team designed individual system components and evaluated whether the concept could work in the real world at a competitive price-point. The next two years were spent incubating the concept with a focus on derisking the most challenging concepts first.
