In this episode, we explore the cutting edge of green H2 technology with two major players in the space: Ohmium and Vallourec. We begin with Ohmium, whose hyper-modular PEM electrolyzers are redefining installation scalability and cost-efficiency. We discuss how the Lotus Mark 2 electrolyzer, with its dynamic ramping capabilities, enhances integration with intermittent renewable energy sources, ensuring higher system efficiency and production reliability. Then we spoke with Vallourec regarding how they are tackling the complex challenges of H2 storage and transport with premium tubing solutions and robust testing protocols to mitigate risks like H2 embrittlement. We also spotlight Vallourec's material innovation and collaborations that drive hydrogen projects forward globally.

What will it take to recover more critical materials when demand is growing and recovery systems aren't keeping up? With the growing deployment of solar panels, wind turbines, electric vehicles, and data centers, demand for metals and minerals is rising fast. But current systems for recovering and reusing these materials are limited, inefficient, or missing entirely. In this episode, Aly Bryan, Senior Member of the investment team at Closed Loop Partners' Venture Group, explains why critical materials have become a central topic in the circular economy. She introduces the concepts of small-loop and large-loop circularity, discusses the role of modular recovery infrastructure, and shares why relying on large, centralized processing facilities may no longer be the most effective approach. Aly also explores how circular startups can work within existing supply chains and why reverse logistics is essential to making recovery work at scale. This episode is part of VC for Circularity - the Venture Capital Perspective on Circular Economy Startups.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOWFirst-Mover Advantage: HPQ is the only known company with a proven direct process from quartz to fumed silica—cutting cost, emissions, and complexity.Two Global Giants Testing Samples: One under LOI, another under NDA and re-engaging after prior testing—signaling escalating interest and competitive optionality.Modular, Scalable Tech: Enables regional production with lower capex to capitalize on tariff wars and ESG mandates.Domestic Market Opportunity: Canada's $150–200M USD fumed silica market currently has no Canadian manufacturer — HPQ is positioned to fill that gap.When the $10 Billion industry leading manufacturer asks for early samples of your product — before you're even ready to ship — it signals more than interest. It signals intent. HPQ Silicon $HPQ / $HPQFF, alongside partner PyroGenesis, has entered a critical phase in its commercialization path for fumed silica — an essential compound used in everything from cosmetics to construction.HPQ's one-step quartz-to-fumed silica process eliminates the toxic chemicals, high emissions, and billion-dollar infrastructure typically required by incumbents who are working with outdated processes. That innovation is now moving out of the pilot plant and into the hands of world-leading producers.THE MILESTONE THAT MATTERSHPQ has shipped its first batch of fumed silica to a leading global manufacturer Evonik for evaluation. This follows third-party validation at the lab level and successful scale-up to pilot production.“This collaboration gives us access to over 80 years of real-world manufacturing and market expertise—an advantage that accelerates our development and strengthens our commercialization efforts.” — Bernard Tourillon, CEO, HPQ SiliconA second global player, which had previously received a small test batch and is under NDA, has also re-engaged — requesting additional material from a higher-quality production run. The significance: HPQ now has multiple industry leaders testing samples, placing the company in a far stronger commercial negotiation position than ever before.THE STRATEGIC OUTLOOKRather than lock into early-stage agreements, HPQ is preserving flexibility to pursue the most advantageous commercial path — whether via joint ventures, licensing, or direct production. With a clean, modular process that eliminates toxic byproducts and avoids billion-dollar capex, HPQ is not just participating in a $2B+ market — it's challenging its foundation.For investors, this isn't merely a materials science breakthrough. It's a potential paradigm shift. With validation underway, commercial discussions accelerating, and strategic optionality intact, HPQ is emerging as a first mover with the technology and timing on its side.Watch the full interview with CEO Bernard Tourillon to understand why the world's top producers are now knocking on HPQ's door.

As the world transitions toward renewable energy sources, geothermal power has emerged as one of the most promising, yet underutilized, options in the clean energy portfolio. Unlike solar and wind, geothermal offers consistent baseload power generation capacity without intermittency challenges, making it an increasingly attractive component in the renewable energy mix. The geothermal sector has shown increasing potential in recent years, with technological innovations expanding its possible applications beyond traditional volcanic regions. These advances are creating opportunities to tap into moderate-temperature resources that were previously considered uneconomical, potentially unlocking gigawatts of clean, renewable power across the globe. It's within this expanding landscape that companies like Gradient Geothermal are pioneering new approaches. As a guest on The POWER Podcast, Ben Burke, CEO of Gradient Geothermal, outlined his company's innovative approach to geothermal energy extraction that could transform how we think about energy recovery from oil and gas operations. Modular and Mobile Geothermal Solutions Gradient Geothermal differentiates itself in the geothermal marketplace through its focus on modular, portable equipment designed specifically for oil field operations, geothermal operators, and potentially data centers. Unlike traditional geothermal installations that require permanent infrastructure, Gradient's equipment can be moved every six to 18 months as needed, allowing clients to adjust their thermal capacity by adding or removing units as requirements change. “The advantage of mobility and modularity is really important to oil and gas operators,” Burke said. The company's solution consists of two main components: an off-the-shelf organic Rankine cycle (ORC) unit and a primary heat exchanger loop. This system can handle various ratios of oil, gas, and water—even “dirty” water containing sand, brines, and minerals—and convert that heat into usable power. One of the most compelling aspects of Gradient's technology is its ease of installation. “Installation takes one day,” Burke explained. “It's two pipes and three wires, and it's able to sit on a gravel pad or sit on trailers.” This quick setup contrasts sharply with traditional geothermal plants that can take years to construct. The units come in three sizes: 75 kW, 150 kW, and 300 kW. The modular nature allows for flexible configurations, with units able to be connected in series or parallel to handle varying water volumes and temperatures.

As part of The Big Fix series, Host Carolyn Beeler speaks with Chris Bataille, a fellow at the Center on Global Energy Policy at Columbia University's School of International and Public Affairs, about the state of small modular nuclear technology and Ontario's plans to construct four of these new reactors.

In this episode of the Changing Higher Ed® podcast, Dr. Drumm McNaughton speaks with Kathleen deLaski, founder of Education Design Lab and author of Who Needs College Anymore?, about how institutions can realign academic programs to better serve nontraditional students and meet workforce demands. Drawing from her experience supporting over 1,200 colleges and regional systems, deLaski explores how modular credentials, skills-based learning, and short-term pathways can make higher education more accessible and valuable to adult learners. The conversation highlights how institutions can use design thinking, industry data, and step-ladder credentialing to connect academic outcomes to employment opportunities—without abandoning their core mission. This episode is especially relevant for presidents, trustees, and academic leaders tasked with redesigning programs and structures to improve learner outcomes, increase enrollment, and strengthen workforce relevance. Topics Covered: The rise of nontraditional students and the failures of a degree-first model How institutions can implement skills-based learning and credential transparency Examples of how colleges like Western Governors University are aligning learning with job market demands The importance of employer engagement in curriculum design Why internal silos and legacy structures hinder meaningful innovation How to use step-ladder pathways to improve access, confidence, and long-term outcomes Real-World Examples Discussed: Western Governors University's use of skills profiles tied to labor market data How community colleges are building modular micro-pathways in partnership with employers The impact of state policy and funding shifts (e.g., Virginia, Colorado, Texas) on institutional priorities Three Key Takeaways for Higher Ed Leadership: Aligning academic programs with workforce needs requires intentional curriculum design and employer input. Modular, stackable credentials offer nontraditional students realistic entry points and long-term pathways to degrees. Institutional structures must adapt to support new models—program redesign alone is not enough. This episode offers actionable insight for institutional leaders committed to expanding access, improving workforce outcomes, and strengthening institutional sustainability. Recommended For: Presidents, provosts, trustees, academic planners, workforce and career pathway leaders, and board members addressing enrollment challenges and labor market alignment.

The age-old question of modular versus stick-built construction reveals surprising truths in today's housing market. General contractor Donnie Blanchard brings 20 years of expertise to this deep dive, shattering common misconceptions about both building methods.Most striking is how the traditional cost advantage of modular homes has virtually disappeared. "The modular home cost is pretty much neck and neck with us," Donnie reveals, noting that on recent quotes, the difference was merely $20,000 – and that's before adding customization options that quickly escalate modular pricing.Beyond dollars and cents, the fundamental differences become clear. Stick-built construction offers unmatched flexibility, allowing homeowners to make changes throughout the building process as they see their space taking shape. Donnie shares how this hands-on approach incorporates local labor and creates truly personalized homes where walls can be moved and features adjusted even during framing stages.Modular construction maintains its speed advantage, typically completing in 3-5 months versus 7-12 months for custom homes. However, this comes with significant trade-offs. Many buyers don't realize they'll need to handle their own foundation work, driveway installation, and utility connections – essentially becoming their own contractors for critical aspects of the project.Quality perceptions get challenged when Donnie shares a personal experience working on a family member's modular home. Despite claims of precision manufacturing, he found walls out of square and design flaws like dormer windows positioned too close to roof lines, creating snow and water intrusion issues. "Every wall was out of square. I had to do so much framing, shimming, trimming... it was not at all what I expected."Whether you're planning your forever home or considering resale value, this episode provides the insider knowledge needed to make an informed decision about which construction method truly aligns with your priorities, timeline, and vision for your dream home.
