Podcasts about Sunrun

On this episode of the Best Ever CRE Show, Slocomb Reed interviews Jeremy Long, founder and managing partner of Axia Partners, a vertically integrated investment firm based in Salt Lake City. Jeremy shares his unique journey from door-to-door sales executive to real estate investor, including his experience taking Vivint Solar public and later being acquired by Sunrun. He explains why he and his partner Dave decided to launch with a fund model rather than individual syndications, allowing them to raise capital to a thesis and acquire multiple properties simultaneously. Jeremy discusses their initial investment focus on value-add multifamily in tertiary markets with strong migration patterns, and why they've expanded into RV parks for their consistent cash flow. He also provides candid insights on their challenges transitioning from retail investors to institutional capital, the importance of property management selection in smaller markets, and why they're now narrowing their asset focus after initially diversifying across multiple property types.

Dan Foster is a Chief Operating/Revenue Officer, who built and transformed profitable businesses across technology and telecom start-ups as well as industry powerhouses. Companies turn to him to revive struggling businesses by redefining sales, marketing and customer service strategy, scaling infrastructure, and promoting product innovation. In this episode, Dan shares how bundled solutions increase value and close rates. He discusses AI's growing role in B2B sales and procurement. And stresses using data to understand customer needs and justify pricing.   Why you have to check out today's podcast: Learn how bundling products and services can enhance perceived value, increase close rates, and prevent price-sensitive buyers from deconstructing your offerings. Gain insights into how AI is transforming the sales landscape, from optimizing product recommendations to procurement teams using AI to negotiate better prices. Understand why pricing should be tied to the customer's business outcomes and how to communicate the true value of your solutions effectively.   "You take the data around a pricing example and you really understand the value from the end user's perspective, so you got to have that empathy back in to say what moves their business. And when we understand what moves their business with a few numbers, then you start to give the underpinning for why value pricing matters." - Dan Foster    Topics Covered: 02:01 - How his early consulting work made him think about value and led him to pricing 03:23 - Asking about typical reactions to pricing presentations 04:24 - Explaining that selling value starts with understanding product-market fit  07:03 - Highlighting the importance of teaching distribution partners how to sell value, using the Home Depot-SolarCity partnership as an example 10:43 - How can ROI calculators be convincing 14:07 - Explaining that while they don't track proven value directly due to lack of data, anecdotal feedback and supplier insights indicate improved close rates for partners 15:09 - How AI is reshaping product offerings, expanding technology advisors' roles, and influencing cost-cutting for innovation 19:10 - Highlighting that while AI may drive procurement efficiencies complex digital transformation solutions still rely on expertise 20:27 - How bundling simplifies purchasing and reinforce the value of an all-in-one solution 24:27 - Dan's best pricing advice   Key Takeaways: "If you want to buy a ton of storage and it's a commodity, we get that. That could go through the marketplace earlier than not. If you want a digital transformation, if you want to change your customer experience, if you want to make your business run faster, if you want business process automation and robotic process automation, that's not going through a dynamic pricing model on a marketplace near-term. Now, can I go out and look at, like, UiPath Licensing versus Automation Anywhere versus whoever Microsoft scooped up next and look at pricing models? The procurement folks are probably smart to do that." - Dan Foster "But the bundled solution specifically is, I think, fundamental because otherwise, when you offer them the menu-based pricing, oftentimes they don't see the full value." - Dan Foster "It [selling value] starts with that product-market fit. We do a lot of enablement of our partners or downstream almost like a two-tier distributor. And in doing that we provide the ability for them to see a higher close rate when they use tools and resources. It alleviates that conversation and it's inherent that there's value pricing there." - Dan Foster "It's critical to think through in a subscription-based model what that value is, because that customer acquisition cost versus the long-term value of a customer, it's a critical ratio to understand when you're thinking through pricing." - Dan Foster   People/Resources Mentioned: Cummins Engine Company: https://www.cumminsenginepart.com/ Unilever: https://www.unilever.com Alcoa: https://www.alcoa.com/global/en/home/ Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Selling-Value-Deals-Higher-Prices/product-reviews/1737655217/ref=cm_cr_dp_d_show_all_btm?ie=UTF8&reviewerType=all_reviews& SolarCity: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SolarCity Home Depot: https://www.homedepot.com Azure: https://azure.microsoft.com/ Google: https://www.google.com/?client=safari Lowe's: https://www.lowes.com Sun Power: https://us.sunpower.com Sunrun: https://www.sunrun.com TD Synnex: https://www.tdsynnex.com/na/us/ Ingram Micro: https://www.ingrammicro.com Five9: https://www.five9.com Genesys: https://www.genesys.com/en-sg/ NICE inContact: https://www.nice.com/ Zoom: https://zoom.us Dialpad: incontact.com/content/home.htm ChatGPT: https://chatgpt.com Wall Street Journal: https://www.wsj.com/ Automation Anywhere: https://www.automationanywhere.com Microsoft: https://www.microsoft.com/en-ph/ UiPath Licensing: https://licensing.uipath.com/ Hulu: https://www.hulu.com/welcome?orig_referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2F Roku TV: https://www.roku.com/products/roku-tv?srsltid=AfmBOoomwWI9G8ZABYW7gSPFzBHc87xVmartPBXAWzj7GfPfAJQYjTtO Super Bowl: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Bowl Xfinity: https://www.xfinity.com/   Connect with Dan Foster: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jdanfoster/ Email: dfoster@telarus.com   Connect with Mark Stiving: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stiving/ Email: mark@impactpricing.com

Please go to this podcast's webpage for links to the articles and more company and stock information. ------------------------------------------------------------- Top Sustainable REITS, EV Companies, and More (1) I'm beginning this podcast with an article on an investment class I've rarely covered: real estate investment trusts, or REITS. The article is titled 7 Green REITs for Sustainable Investing. It's by Glenn Fydenkevez, edited by Jordan Schultz, and found on money.usnews.com. Here are some quotes from Mr. Schultz on each of his picks. “If you're a REIT investor who is concerned about the environmental impact of the stocks you own, here's a list of seven real estate companies that have demonstrated real leadership in adopting sustainable business practices that align with ESG goals: 1. Alexandria Real Estate Equities Inc. (ARE) is a REIT with a market cap of about $18 billion. The company specializes in life science properties… This environmentally responsible REIT is constantly striving to lower its carbon footprint. [The company] is known for using renewable energy sources such as solar panels and geothermal heating and cooling systems in all of the properties it develops. It also created a unique wastewater heat recovery process. Forward dividend yield: 4.9% 2. BXP Inc. (BXP) In 2021, BXP demonstrated its commitment to sustainability by developing one of Massachusetts' first net-zero, carbon-neutral building repositioning projects… BXP – formally known as Boston Properties – has a market-cap of about $14 billion. It is the largest publicly traded office REIT in the U.S. The firm focuses its investment activities on large cities on the east and west coasts, mostly in Boston, New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco. Forward dividend yield: 4.9% 3. Digital Realty Trust Inc. (DLR) is a $64 billion REIT in the fast-growing digital infrastructure industry. The company owns and operates more than 300 data centers around the world, and its portfolio of properties is growing… Apollo AI makes running a data center as efficient as possible. That's what makes Digital Realty Trust a leader in sustainability. Forward dividend yield: 2.5% 4. HA Sustainable Infrastructure Capital Inc. (HASI) is a $3.7 billion REIT that invests only in securities related to renewable energy, sustainability infrastructure and energy efficiency… This Annapolis, Maryland-based company focuses on solar projects, wind farms, clean-burning natural gas facilities, fuel cell development, smart grid technology and other green real estate initiatives. Forward dividend yield: 5.3% 5. Prologis Inc. (PLD) has a massive presence in the transportation and logistics real estate industry. The company boasts a market cap of about $103 billion… This company's warehouses and transportation terminals are modern, high-tech facilities. It uses high-speed computers, digital communications, AI and cloud computing technology to help its customers efficiently fulfill orders and deliver products across the U.S. and in Canada, Mexico, the U.K., Germany, Japan and China. Forward dividend yield: 3.3% 6. Host Hotels & Resorts Inc. (HST) has committed to implementing sustainable practices in every one of its 77 hospitality properties in the U.S., Canada and Brazil. The company controls about 42,000 hotel rooms… With a market capitalization of over $13 billion, [it] is the largest lodging REIT in the U.S… Wells Fargo Securities has an ‘overweight' rating on the stock. Stifel gives the company a ‘buy' rating. Forward dividend yield: 4.2% 7. JBG Smith Properties (JBGS) This $1.4 billion REIT controls over 14 million rentable square feet of mixed-use space in the expensive and highly competitive capital district around Washington, D.C… Amazon.com Inc. (AMZN) expects that its new campus in Northern Virginia will add 25,000 workers by 2038… Host Hotels & Resorts plans to benefit… and appeal to Amazon's environmentally conscious employees by promoting sustainability and green development practices in every building it buys or builds. Forward dividend yield: 4.3%” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- America's Most Responsible Companies This next article refers to one of America's foremost corporate sustainability rankings, America's Most Responsible Companies. The editorial is by Nancy Cooper, and the full company rankings can be seen at newsweek.com. Here are a few quotes from Ms. Cooper's introduction to the rankings. “Selected from the 2,000 largest publicly traded companies headquartered in the U.S., each winner received scores based on the three pillars of ESG… The analysis is based on data from 30 key performance indicators, such as energy usage and charitable donations, as well as a reputation survey of more than 26,000 U.S. consumers. For the second year in a row, the top spot was awarded to Merck (MRK) with an impressive overall score of 97.83, up from 91.98 last year. Other notable names on this year's list include Adobe (ADBE), PayPal (PYPL) and HP (HPE) .” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Why Sunrun (RUN) Is Among the Best Wind Power and Solar Stocks to Invest in Now Now since this article was featured on Yahoo! Finance, I thought to include it. It's titled Why Sunrun (RUN) Is Among the Best Wind Power and Solar Stocks to Invest in Now. The article is by Mashaid Ahmed. Here are some quotes from it. “While the outcome of the US election and the anticipated policies of the new administration pose short-term challenges to renewable energy, the long-term outlook remains cautiously optimistic. Sunrun Inc. (NASDAQ:RUN) Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 43   Sunrun is a leading provider of residential solar energy solutions, offering solar installations, battery storage, and energy services. The company specializes in customized solar systems for homeowners and has over 1 million customers. Sunrun also offers products on leasing and financing options… The company has signed a multi-year exclusive agreement with Toll Brothers in California and expects its new home business to grow at least 50% over the next year… The company has 16 grid service programs active across the country, with over 20,000 storage systems participating, and is working with utilities and other partners to develop new programs and services… Overall, Sunrun ranks 5th on our list of best wind power and stocks to invest in now.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Top Sustainable REITS, EV Companies, and More (2) And now to this article titled 7 Best EV Stocks to Buy for 2025. It's by Jeff Reeves, reviewed by John Divine, and found at money.usnews.com. Now some quotes from the article. “An analysis by Gartner estimates that the number of EV Companies in use will grow 33% in 2025 to bring the total number of electric cars and trucks to 85 million in total. That figure will be primarily thanks to brisk adoption rates in China (58% growth) and Europe (24% growth), which together are projected to represent 82% of the total EV market next year, according to Gartner. For investors who want to cash in on EV stocks and the rise of electric vehicles, it's critical to look beyond the usual suspects in the U.S. and take a truly global approach to the industry. With that in mind, some of the hottest EV stocks to buy for 2025 include: 1. Tesla Inc. (TSLA) Market value: $1.2 trillion Tesla has a huge chunk of the marketplace, with predictions of nearly 1.8 million vehicle deliveries across all of 2024. What's more, strong momentum after Election Day, thanks to Musk's close associations with President-elect Donald Trump, has pushed Tesla stock up about 50% on the year even as other electric vehicle stocks have struggled… Tesla remains the go-to EV stock for many investors as we enter 2025. 2. BYD Co. Ltd. (BYDDY) Market value: $106 billion Chinese firm BYD is… the top electric vehicle manufacturer in the world… currently selling more than 500,000 ‘new energy vehicles' per month – a potential pace of 6 million annually going forward… the local appeal of this Chinese company amid the uncertainty around tariffs and trade policies all but ensures this home-grown EV stock will thrive in China across 2025 as regional demand remains strong. 3. Volkswagen AG (VWAGY) Market value: $43 billion Volkswagen remains the largest vehicle manufacturer on the planet and has the same local appeal in Europe that BYD might have in China amid the current talk of trade wars. EV Companies are a modest share of total output… In October, the firm reported battery electric vehicles (not hybrids) topped 500,000 units across the first three quarters of 2024. That puts it on pace for nearly 700,000 vehicles on the full year – and with goals of fully electrifying its fleet by 2030, Volkswagen is definitely an EV stock to watch. 4. Li Auto Inc. (LI) Market value: $24 billion Much smaller than these other firms and currently bleeding cash as it invests aggressively in growth, Li Auto is nevertheless a top EV stock to watch because of its tremendous growth path. It delivered 48,740 vehicles in November 2024, up 18.8% year over year, and is currently on pace to top 500,000 units on the year… A big reason for that is because of its premium appeal, with its Li AD Max accounting for more than 80% of orders for models in China priced above roughly $55,000. Admittedly, shares of LI stock have struggled in 2024 but these sales figures are incredibly encouraging for investors who aren't afraid of taking on a bit more risk to invest in an upstart EV stock versus an established leader. 5. Nio Inc. (NIO) Market value: $10 billion Another junior EV stock operating deep in the red, Nio is putting up impressive growth metrics even if its share performance hasn't been grand in 2024… Nio delivered a record 61,855 units in the third quarter and estimates it will have as many as 75,000 EV deliveries in the fourth quarter. That pace of 300,000 units annually doesn't seem like much compared with other firms, but considering the firm delivered about half that total in 2023 there is a lot to like about where the firm is headed. What's more, like BYD and Li, this is a Chinese firm with local appeal in the fastest-growing market for EV Companies on the planet. That gives it an added tailwind that some Western EV stocks may lack in 2025. 6. Albemarle Corp. (ALB) Market value: $12 billion The company is one of the leading lithium miners globally, with production capacity of 225,000 metric tons and plans to roughly triple capacity by 2030. Supply chain challenges for lithium are tricky, and trade policies could make the situation even more complex in 2025. But as a commodity stock that profits in part based on broader market-wide pricing trends, any shortages or supply bottlenecks will naturally boost lithium prices if things don't go well – and that will naturally benefit Albemarle's bottom line as a result. 7. ChargePoint Holdings Inc. (CHPT) Market value: $600 million ChargePoint is the largest electric vehicle charging company in the United States, with more charging ports and locations than any other network. Specifically, ChargePoint boasts 70,000 plugs at nearly 39,000 stations. In fact, more than 4 in 10 charging ports nationwide are operated by ChargePoint. The company is small and currently unprofitable, so it definitely carries a level of risk, but investors who aren't keen on putting money behind firms headquartered in Beijing or Shanghai may find this closer-to-home play a bit more palatable.” End quotes. ------------------------------------------------------------- Additional Article of Interest 1.

Consider this one titled 10 Best Alternative Energy Stocks To Buy According to Hedge Funds. It's by Mashaid Ahmed and seen on insidermonkey.com. Here are some quotes from the article. “For this article, we scanned alternative energy ETFs plus online rankings to compile an initial list of 30 alternative energy stocks. From that list, we narrowed our choices to 10 stocks according to their hedge fund sentiment, which was taken from our database of 912 elite hedge funds as of Q2 of 2024. The list is sorted in ascending order of their hedge fund sentiment, as of the second quarter. Why do we care about what hedge funds do? … Our research has shown that we can outperform the market by imitating the top stock picks of the best hedge funds. 10. Bloom Energy Corporation (NYSE:BE) Number of Hedge Fund Holders: 29 Bloom Energy Corporation's technology generates electricity with no combustion and negligible criteria pollutant emissions, and it operates on multiple fuels, including natural gas, biogas, and hydrogen, providing a lower carbon footprint compared to the electric grid while maintaining grid stability. This technology allows the company to accomplish its goals of providing clean power solutions faster than the alternatives. While hydrogen is currently more expensive than traditional fuels, Bloom Energy Corporation's breakthrough in achieving 60% electrical efficiency could make hydrogen economically viable as a fuel source. This makes Bloom Energy Corporation's fuel cells a cleaner alternative for electricity production. 9. Edison International (NYSE:EIX) Hedge Fund Holders: 32 Edison International is a leading energy company that has served California for over a century through its main subsidiary, Southern California Edison (SCE).

This week, market volatility took centre stage, spurred by the perceived inflationary policies under Trump. His election victory led to a steepening yield curve, with 10-year yields surging nearly 19 basis points, and market-based inflation expectations—like 5-year breakevens—also jumped significantly. Equities responded optimistically, with the S&P 500 up 3.3% and the Nasdaq climbing 4.5%, buoyed by hopes of deregulation.The energy sector's reaction was mixed; Trump's past policies affecting Iranian exports could signal a return to stricter measures. Renewable energy stocks, however, faced setbacks, with Sunrun notably impacted. Meanwhile, the Federal Reserve cut rates by 25 basis points, with Chair Powell hinted at a potential slowdown in further cuts, even as employment remains central to future decisions.Internationally, the Bank of England reduced its base rate, and euro yields tumbled, driven by safe-haven demand and inflation risks. Simultaneously, China showed signs of economic recovery, with a surprising export surge and positive PMI data. Additionally, Beijing announced a substantial 10 trillion-yuan debt refinancing package, but the measures fell short on the consumer measures markets had hoped for.James and Will unpack how these global financial shifts impact investors and the broader economic landscape.

Now what would a podcast episode be without an article on solar power companies? So here it is titled These 3 Companies Are the Solar Power Leaders, But Should You Invest in Them? By Jordan Chussler and found on 247wallst.com. Here is some of what Mr. Chussler says in his article. “1. First Solar Inc. (NASDAQ: FSLR) has amassed an impressive $21.98 billion market cap and is considered by many to be the solar industry leader. The company manufactures solar panels, but also provides utility-scale photovoltaic power plants while also provides support services like financing, construction, maintenance and end-of-life panel recycling programs… In the second quarter of 2024, First Solar beat earnings forecasts for the fifth consecutive quarter by posting earnings per share (EPS) of $3.25 versus analysts' expectations of $2.70.

Shares are currently trading for $205.36, meaning, the stock is expected to have strong upside potential of 39.26% over the next 12 months.  2. Enphase Energy Inc. (NASDAQ: ENPH) is a clean energy technology company with a $13.95 billion market cap that specializes in the development and manufacturing of solar micro-inverters and battery storage systems… Since beating earnings forecasts during the third quarter of 2023, Enphase has missed for the past three consecutive quarters, posting a disappointing EPS of 43 cents in the second quarter of 2024 versus analysts' expectations of 49 cents… Shares of Enphase are currently trading around $112, but one-year price targets are incredibly spread out.

(NASDAQ: RUN) has the smallest market cap of all three companies, with just $3.8 billion.

Joe Quinlan, head of market strategy for Merrill and Private Bank, Bank of America, says that he expects the stock market to show better breadth in 2025, with other stocks picking up slack for the Magnificent Seven stocks, which he thinks will keep growing but at much slower rates. He notes that "the U.S. economy continues to defy expectations," and as long as that continues — and he is optimistic that it will, unabated by whatever happens in the presidential election — he will keep advising investors to buy the dips, favoring high-quality dividend payers. David Trainer, president of New Constructs, puts Sunrun back in the Danger Zone, noting that the stock has outperformed as a short since it was first singled out in 2022, but that a recent bounce-back has simply set it up for the next fall as the company runs out of money. Jerry Parker of Chesapeake Capital Corp. — one of the original Turtle Traders, a ground-breaking group of commodity traders from the 1980s — talks trend-focused investing in the Market Call, and Chuck answers a listener's question about why shares in Trump Media and Communication stock were halted on Friday, and whether the move might have had political motivations.

Amy Heart shares her career journey from her roots in Wisconsin to her pivotal role as SVP of Public Policy at Sunrun. Keith and Amy discuss the increasing consumer interest in sustainability and Sunrun's customer-focused approach to making solar energy accessible and affordable for homeowners.

Mary Powell, CEO of Sunrun, has cast the vision of the leading solar brand in North America as a clean energy lifestyle company. She recently shared with Nico how Sunrun is accelerating the transition and nearing its millionth customer despite the typical electric utilities' “no and slow” culture.Under Powell's leadership, Sunrun installed more than 1 GW of solar in 2023, maintaining its position as the nation's leading residential solar provider. Even more impressive, perhaps, is how Sunrun's “year of energy storage” netted an unprecedented growth rate of battery attachment to solar projects. They've also set a few key milestones in key markets like CA and Puerto Rico for grid services of distributed batteries.As a former utility executive, Nico asserts that Powell is “bilingual”, understanding how to navigate and communicate in both the private sector and Utility environments facilitating the integration of more renewables into the grid. Now, she is proving that distributed energy resources (like rooftop solar) can support grid reliability when networked as virtual power plants (VPPs), and promises we are in the midst of a ‘customer-led revolution'.Expect to learn:Details of the largest virtual power plant (VPP) in the nation.Why “customer obsession” is key to consumer confidence.The role of virtual power plants in creating a resilient grid.How Sunrun achieved a 50% storage attachment rate.Click play to hear directly from the CEO proving that distributed energy resources can support a stronger, more resilient grid.If you want to connect with today's guest, you'll find links to his contact info in the show notes on the blog at https://mysuncast.com/suncast-episodes/.SunCast is proudly supported by Trina Solar.You can learn more about all the sponsors who help make this show free for you at www.mysuncast.com/sponsors.Remember, you can always find resources, learn more about today's guest and explore recommendations, book links, and more than 650 other founder stories and startup advice at www.mysuncast.com.Subscribe to Valence, our weekly LinkedIn Newsletter, and learn the elements of compelling storytelling: https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/valence-content-that-connects-7145928995363049472/You can connect with me, Nico Johnson, on:Twitter - https://www.twitter.com/nicomeoLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/nickalus

Why isn't rooftop solar cheaper in America? In Australia in 2024, a standard rooftop system can cost as little as $0.90 per watt. In the U.S., a similar system might go for $4 per watt. If America could come even close to Australia's rooftop solar prices, then we would be able to decarbonize the power system much faster than we are now.Mary Powell has the answers. She is the chief executive officer of Sunrun, a $2.6 billion company that is the largest rooftop solar and battery installer in the U.S. Sunrun has set up or managed more than 900,000 rooftop systems across the U.S. Powell previously led Green Mountain Power, Vermont's largest investor-owned power company.On this week's episode of Shift Key, Rob and Jesse talk about how the rooftop solar business works and what's driving America's higher costs. Shift Key is hosted by Robinson Meyer, the founding executive editor of Heatmap, and Jesse Jenkins, a professor of energy systems engineering at Princeton University.Previously on Shift Key: Does Rooftop Solar Actually Help the Climate?Mentioned:What solar panels cost in AustraliaThe Department of Energy's quarterly solar updateIntroduction to solar soft costs–This episode of Shift Key is sponsored by…Watershed's climate data engine helps companies measure and reduce their emissions, turning the data they already have into an audit-ready carbon footprint backed by the latest climate science.

We have 60 gigawatts of virtual power plant capacity in the US. But that needs to triple in the next decade to support a zero-carbon grid – while also meeting a surge in peak demand. There are lots of different models for building VPPs that link together solar, batteries, EV chargers, and smart thermostats. Sunrun and PG&E tested a model this summer that uses solar and batteries to create a “permanent load shift” to offset the evening peak in California. It provided tens of megawatts of capacity to the utility. But there were also some issues with batteries not delivering the expected output. What do the results tell us what it will take to make VPPs a core piece of utility operations? In this edition: Editor Lisa Martine Jenkins presents a story from the pages of Latitude Media on some surprising results from PG&E and Sunrun's virtual power plant pilot.  For more of Latitude Media's coverage of the frontiers of clean energy, sign up for our newsletter.

Have you ever wondered what is really on the mind of an ambitious startup founder? For this episode, we turned to the incredible Cari Jacobs-Crovetto, CEO and founder of The Force Majeure and a Stanford University Graduate School of Business executive coach and T-Group facilitator. Based in the vibrant San Francisco Bay Area, Cari has been a part of multiple startup teams and today is on a mission to ensure that leaders are tapping into the human side of business goals and relationships while on their path to success. When talking about the realities of begin a founder we touched on: - Loneliness at the Top: Cari shares how many young CEOs, especially those under 40, grapple with the loneliness of leadership and the challenges that may come from guiding a company without a personal support system. - The Fear of Being Found Out: Unveiling the second layer of vulnerability, Cari discusses the fear many CEOs harbor—the fear of being found out for what they don't know. Learn how young CEOs navigate the pressure of knowing everything and the unknowns they grapple with in private. - Transitioning Team Dynamics: Building and evolving teams as the business needs change is a significant task for a less experienced founder. From hiring super horizontal talent in the early stages. to the pivotal shift toward specialists as the business grows is an area many fail to address early enough in the startup lifecycle. - Navigating the Red Zone: Cari introduces the concept of the "red zone," a challenging phase where startups move from the green zone of endless possibilities to a constrained and stressful environment. - Gender Bypassing: Reflecting on gender dynamics and differences between make and female founders, Cari touches on the concept of gender bypassing and the deeper work required for gender equality in the startup community.

This week on Everybody in the Pool, it's funny how we keep talking about climate solutions and haven't gotten to the big ball of free energy in the sky yet. Maybe it's because everybody thinks solar is “solved,” or it's old tech, or it's boring. But actually, solar adoption is lagging, and that's a problem, because as we electrify everything, we need lots more renewable energy to meet the demand, and solar combined with batteries is not only a renewable energy solution, but a really cool way to create a resilient and effective kind of “shadow grid” for electricity. Today's guest is Chris Rauscher, the head of grid services at Sunrun. Oh, and we even get to geek out about cars!RESOURCES & LINKSSunrun: https://www.sunrun.com/Subscribe to the Everybody in the Pool newsletter: https://www.mollywood.co/Visit the website: https://www.everybodyinthepool.com/ Become a member and get an ad-free version of the podcast: https://plus.acast.com/s/everybody-in-the-pool Please subscribe and tell your friends about EITP!

It's a little over a year since the US Inflation Reduction Act was passed into law. Solar was one of the main beneficiaries, thanks to an extension and expansion of the tax credits available to the industry. So why has the sector fallen out of favour with investors recently?August was a difficult month for the markets in general, but companies including First Solar, Sunrun, Sunpower and Sunnova (who have been featured on our sister podcast The Interchange) have had it particularly rough. To look into what's going on, host Ed Crooks is joined by two of our regular finance and investment experts: Shanu Mathew, of Lazard Asset Management, and Amy Myers-Jaffe, of NYU's Energy, Climate Justice and Sustainability Lab. Together, look at the residential and utility-scale solar markets and the investment going into them, the US perspective against a global investment backdrop, and the long-term prospects for solar.Also in this show: what went wrong at Proterra? Proterra was an electric bus and battery company championed by President Biden as an example of how the US could build a manufacturing base in cleantech, but it filed for bankruptcy in early August. What does its failure tell us about the future of electric vehicles? And how do these challenges facing two key sectors, solar and EVs, change our perceptions of the clean energy transition? Finally, ESG investing is in the spotlight again. Larry Fink, CEO of Blackrock – one of the world's biggest asset management firms – said recently that he “doesn't use the word ESG any more, because it's been entirely weaponised...by the far left and weaponised by the far right.” Republican politicians in the US have attacked ESG as “a direct threat to the American economy, individual economic freedom, and our way of life.” Some statistics have suggested that interest in ESG investing has been waning from its high point in 2021. Amy says the capital is still flowing into clean energy, but investors need to “pick the right team, the right technology, the right management.” Shanu argues that the trends still support moves towards increased sustainability and the use of environmental, social and governance factors in investment decisions. ESG may not be a buzz-word any more, at least not in a positive sense.
