Takeaways

Decarbonizing the existing fleet is crucial as most vehicles on the road are not new vehicles.

Understanding the intersection of regulations and technologies is key to navigating the complexity of the industry.

Accounting for the entire lifecycle of vehicles, including production and disposal, is necessary for effective decarbonization.

Incentivizing the use of renewable fuels requires policy changes and the development of carbon markets.

Transitioning to a smaller organization can provide opportunities for learning and growth, but also comes with its own challenges. Leverage previous experience and knowledge when starting a new venture.

Building a sustainable business requires a focus on value proposition, product definition, and product management.

Technology needs to be effectively marketed and turned into a viable product to make a difference.

The book 'Know What Matters' by Ron Sheik provides valuable insights into building a successful company.
