Investor Panel: Climate solutions for AI energy demand

Data centres are on track to consume more electricity than entire nations within this decade. The same AI promising to accelerate decarbonisation is becoming one of the fastest-growing sources of carbon-intensive power demand on the planet. Hyperscalers are restarting coal plants and signing nuclear PPAs. Something has to give — and the founders solving it are building the most consequential infrastructure of our generation. This panel brings together the investors writing the first cheques into the companies that will define how AI gets powered — and whether it gets powered cleanly. Join us for an inspiring conversation with six of the most active early-stage investors at the frontier of climate technology and AI energy infrastructure. No slides, no pitches — just a candid discussion about where the capital is going, where the moats are being built, and what it will actually take to power AI cleanly at scale.
