Why work in climate tech?

• In the past 15 years, wind power doubled its capacity 4 times, solar production has doubled 7 times, and fossil fuel investments have stagnated. Global investment in the low-carbon energy transition totaled $1.1 trillion in 2022.

• The investors preferring to continue investing in oil & gas are making huge losses: Pension funds lost $757b globally over 3 years on fossil fuels.

• Investors have shifted to clean energy & climate mitigation. In 2022 alone, $71b USD has been invested in climate technologies startups, making wind and solar energy cheaper than ever.

• EV Battery price fell 35% last year alone, making electric car sales rise by 60% and could reach 50% of all car sales by 2040.

• For the first time in history, during the past few years, there has been more than 2X more renewable energy production added than new coal, oil, and gas combined.

• This is the time you can catch the bus and write history to tell your kids.
