HOUSTON, March 14,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Leaders and founders of seven
companies selected as 2024 Energy Innovation Pioneers will
present at CERAWeek by S&P Global—the world's preeminent energy
conference—March 18-22 in Houston.
The Energy Innovation Pioneers program, held annually at
CERAWeek, identifies the most innovative new technologies and
business models across the energy spectrum based on judging
criteria that includes creativity, timeliness, scalability of
technology and leadership. The program is now in its 19th year.
This year's honorees represent the emerging technologies and
business models that are driving the pace and pathways of the
energy transition—to quickly decarbonize our existing energy
systems (such as distributed hydrogen generation, geothermal
heating and cooling, methane mitigation of oil and gas wells) and
enable the energy systems of the future (such as electrostatic
motors, hybrid intelligent electricity transformers, rare earth
element recycling and processing, solid sorbent carbon capture
materials).
The 2024 class of Energy Innovation Pioneers includes:
- Bedrock Energy, Joselyn Lai,
Co-founder and CEO
- BioSqueeze, Mark Ranalli,
President and CEO
- C-Motive, Matt Maroon,
CEO
- Cyclic Materials, Ahmad
Ghahreman, CEO, President and Co-founder
- IONATE, Matthew Williams,
Founder and CEO
- Modern Hydrogen, Tony Pan,
CEO and Co-founder
- Svante, Claude Létourneau, President and CEO
During CERAWeek 2024, the Energy Innovation Pioneers will
participate in Agora Studios sessions exploring the role startups
and their innovations are playing to reshape the energy system at
scale, and the implications of these innovations on the global
economy:
- Tuesday, March 19 –
9:30‒10:10 am CST: Driving
decarbonization in overlooked areas
- Wednesday, March 20 –
9:30‒10:10 am CST: Accelerating
decentralized, resilient and sustainable energy
systems
CERAWeek and Innovation Agora delegates are also invited to
attend Agora Pod sessions where each Pioneer will provide an
interactive presentation about their company and technology. These
presentations are concurrent with the main conference agenda.
"This year's class of Energy Innovation Pioneers epitomize the
ingenuity and drive needed to navigate the multidimensional nature
of energy transition," said Carolyn
Seto, Director, Upstream Technology and Innovation, S&P
Global Commodity Insights and Energy Innovation Pioneer chair.
"Through their entrepreneurship and vision, these companies are
creating the opportunities that will transform how we produce,
deliver and consume energy."
"We are pleased to honor the 19th class of Energy Innovation
Pioneers at CERAWeek by S&P Global," said Daniel Yergin, Vice Chairman, S&P Global and
CERAWeek conference chair. "This year's conference theme,
'Multidimensional Energy Transition' speaks to the growing
realization that the transformation of the global energy system
will not proceed along any single linear path. Pursuing climate
goals alongside other priorities such as energy access, energy
security and affordability—all in a manner that is responsive to
different situations in different parts of the world—will be
extraordinarily complex. These seven companies and entrepreneurs
embody the ingenuity, adaptability and drive to meet the moment
with technological pioneering."
"The Energy Innovation Pioneers program is an essential part of
CERAWeek and a reflection of the inseparable role that technology
and innovation occupy in the energy industry," said James Rosenfield, Senior Vice President, S&P
Global and CERAWeek co-chair. "It is a privilege to welcome this
year's class of pioneers that are expanding boundaries of
possibility for the new energy future."
CERAWeek 2024: Multidimensional Energy Transition: Markets,
climate, technology and geopolitics will explore strategies
for a multidimensional, multispeed and multifuel energy
transition—one that reflects different realities and timelines by
region, technology, industry strategies, as well as the variety of
social and political approaches and divergent national priorities
in an increasingly multipolar world.
The CERAWeek 2024 conference program will explore key themes
related to:
- Energy Markets
- Policy and Geopolitics
- Company Strategies
- Power Markets in Transition
- New Supply Chains for Net Zero
- Minerals and Metals
- Climate and Sustainability
- Technology and Innovation
- Capital Transition
The week-long event will also include the CERAWeek Innovation
Agora, serving as the center of technology and innovation
programming at the conference. Featuring a community of thought
leaders, technologists, start-ups, investors, academics, energy
companies and government officials, the Innovation Agora will
showcase transformational technology platforms in energy and
adjacent industries ranging across AI, decarbonization, low carbon
fuels, cybersecurity, hydrogen, nuclear, mining and minerals,
mobility, automation, and more. The 2024 program will also feature
expanded "Agora Hubs"—dedicated areas focused on climate, hydrogen
and carbon.
