Play • 45 min

What’s it all about?
What a year it has been for Cleantech in Europe, whilst investment wasn’t quite at the record level of 2021, it came in second, we saw tremendous policy and government acceptance of Cleantech as a strategically important sector for Europe and the EU. Jules Besnainou and his team at Cleantech for Europe have made a huge impact on both fronts. Here we discuss some of those highlights, and look at what we can expect, or hope for, in 2023. It’s Europe’s ‘man on the moon’ moment to be a global leader in the sector. Enjoy the episode.
