I have had the privilege to lead Enoda as CEO through our first two years of growth, from founding through technology development to deployment and scaling. Having now closed our Series A capital raise, I am moving into a new role as Chief Policy and Global Affairs Officer in which I can best support the next phase of the Enoda journey. I’ll be working to shape the regulatory and energy policy landscape to ensure that the full potential of our technology to deliver sustainable prosperity for everyone, can be realised globally.

ENODA is dedicated to the transition to a zero-carbon energy system in a way that is economically sustainable for all. As we move to a zero-carbon future how, when and where we consume energy must change as quickly as the way we provide primary power. This demands a complete rethink of our relationship to the energy system. The challenges we confront will not be resolved with the quasistatic and bulk handling solutions of the past.ENODA are delivering the dynamic and scalable system to address the considerable impediments of transportation, instability, and affordability to the transition to net zero. ENODA are developing the systemic approach and technologies that will unlock the full potential of renewable energy, with a unique solution for management of green hydrogen. Our solution is a complete architecture of power management technologies for electricity system stability, modal shifting and optimal generation and distribution of green hydrogen.We seek to deliver the lowest Social Marginal Cost energy to consumers through the harmonisation of key aspects of energy: sector coupling, Intra-cyclical, inter-cyclical, phase, and diurnal.
