In an interview with CNBC last month, Tim Cook — CEO of Apple, the first American company ever to cross $1 trillion in value — said something interesting, if not surprising. “I believe if you zoom out into the future, and you look back, and you ask the question, ‘What was Apple’s greatest contribution to mankind?’ It will be about health.” In other words, Cook believes that Apple’s most important accomplishment will not be our collective addiction to small screens like the iPhone and iPad , but

Yet, the same household may spend $260 or less a month if they’ve installed solar panels and battery storage. The time for solar is now.

As the world rushes forward into the future, it feels like the water industry is being left behind. But that is not quite the case. To those on the inside, doing the great work of providing clean potable water for our homes, it feels like every other company is coming in trying to sell technology. Some of the technology is directed at customers and some is directed at the utility producing the water.

With the first wave of the energy transition, renewable energy sources (such as solar and wind) have begun replacing coal power generation. However, some sectors are lagging behind and struggling to decarbonize more than others, including large-scale transportation like commercial aviation, shipping, and rail transit. Electrofuels (aka eFuels) are the next generation of solutions to help the hardest-to-abate sectors pivot from their reliance on fossil fuels.
