Episode How Cleantech is Driving Europe’s Energy Transition

0:00 18:06

Cleantech is no longer a niche sector. It is at the heart of a full‑scale industrial transformation, shaping how Europe produces energy, decarbonises industry and builds a more resilient economy.

In this episode of Invested by Europe, Sofia Viola, an investment officer at the European Investment Bank, explains:

• What cleantech is today — a clue: it’s more than just renewable energy • Why energy storage is critical to balancing renewable supply and demand • Why batteries are crucial to stabilising the power system • Why industrial decarbonisation is essential for competitiveness • How the EIC Fund supports cleantech startups and scale‑ups • Why access to long‑term capital remains a key challenge in Europe • What makes her optimistic about the future of cleantech

The conversation also explores why cleantech represents a major economic opportunity — and why scaling these technologies will be decisive for Europe’s energy transition.
