  • #39 - Helping Commercial Kitchens Reduce Food Waste and Save Money w/ David Jackson (Winnow)

    We hope you are hungry 🍎 because today we are discussing food waste with David Jackson from Winnow. 

    Winnow is helping commercial kitchens reduce food waste through their easy install and low-cost AI technology that allows commercial kitchens to track waste and take the insights to the menu where they can plan better to reduce waste. All this helps reduce carbon emissions as well. 

    This was a fascinating conversation in a topic that we have really not talked much about so we hope you enjoy it as much as we did. Please do share it with anyone that you think will be interested to learn more about this technology.

  • #35 - Hydrogen Fuel Tanks with David Jaramillo at VERNE

    Hey there 👋 , welcome back to the second episode this week - again discussing Hydrogen. This time we are discussing the hydrogen storage (fuel tank) aspect of hydrogen-powered vehicles / machinery. To help us understand this we talked with David Jaramillo, Co-Founder, and CTO at VERNE. 

    VERNE is part of the Breakthrough Energy incubator. They are doing R&D to help innovate the hydrogen storage aspect of hydrogen-powered machinery. The storage and transportation of hydrogen is currently a very difficult issue that needs to be solved. 

    It's our hope that between this conversation and the one earlier this week with Corey Staller, you should have a pretty good view of what a fuel cell is and what hydrogen is generally. 

    Join us next week for an episode with Brendan Banfield from Gridsight discussing how they are using data that utilities already collect to improve the relationship between the grid and distributed energy resources.

  • #34 - Fuel Cells, Understanding Hydrogen, 10 Years Out?

    This is probably the most informative conversation I've had in a long time. Very thankful for Corey Staller, the Director of Engineering at Celadyne Technologies (and Forbes 30 under 30 honoree). 

    They are doing R&D and developing materials that will help fuel cell tech in achieving cost parity for the heavy industries with conventional motors. This episode speaks mostly to freight shipping. In the episode, we also address policy, infrastructure, and supply chain issues. 

    Please enjoy today's episode and look out for another discussion about the fuel tank for hydrogen later this week. (nice little double whammy).
