As a result of the impact of climate change and population growth, we are facing some huge challenges. We believe cleantech innovators have the solutions!
Do you have a technology to solve sustainability issues in these areas?
Transport
Transport is a major user of energy, and burns most of the world’s petroleum. It creates air pollution, such as nitrous oxides and particulates, and is a significant contributor to global warming through emission of carbon dioxide. What cleantech solutions can crack these issues with low-carbon options such as electric vehicles, batteries, biomethane and better transport systems and urban planning?

Energy
There is a current global need for clean and renewable energy sources. Fossil fuels are non-renewable and require finite resources, which are dwindling because of high cost and environmentally damaging retrieval techniques. As a result we need solutions to source, produce, recover, supply and re-use energy.

Waste
The growing amount of waste in a modern society has a major environmental impact. Waste to landfill creates harmful emissions and leaks damaging chemicals into the soil. Incineration can create hazardous deposits and dangerous gases. Solutions to minimise, manage, treat, safely dispose of, and or prevent waste will make a huge difference.

Water
15% of the world’s population has no access to clean drinking water. Growing pressure on water resources – from population and economic growth, climate change, pollution, and other challenges – has major impacts on our social, economic, and environmental well-being. We need efficient solutions to providing safe, reliable, and easily accessible water, as well as reliable waste water treatment, sanitation and prevention of water wastage.
