This is episode 75 of the show and we are thrilled to have you joining us. ---If you're a ClimateTech Founder seeking introductions to capital or potential partnerships or are interested in sponsoring the show, please reach out: [email protected] we have a great conversation with Al Subbloie the Founder and CEO of Budderfly.Budderfly is one of the fastest-growing full-service commercial building efficiency companies. They help commercial building owners upgrade to efficient equipment and switch to solar by removing the biggest barrier to entry which is almost always cost. Through their partnerships, with strong financial institutions they pay for the upfront CapEx of the upgrades and then the building owner just keeps paying the monthly bill. However after the upgrades are done and Budderfly takes a premium for providing the service, the bill is actually lower than it was before. The amount they can improve efficiency so much that even with their model they are able to reduce the total monthly cost of energy. These types of innovations are super fascinating and much needed to reduce all barriers to entry. Without any further delay, please enjoy this conversation with Al Subbloie.Topics: Intro to IoT and how it works 6:20 the Problem 16:30 Brands care & ESG reporting25:55 how they handle the capital process37:00 Where the $0 CapEx model works 43:30 Regulatory issues46:20 educating the market 48:45 closing off We hope you enjoy today's episode - please reach out with any specific questions or discussion points.
