Felix Krause is the Managing Partner at Vireo Ventures, a European VC fund betting that the future of energy is electric, distributed, and intelligently managed. Based in Berlin, Felix brings sector-specific clarity to the sprawling world of climate investing and makes a strong case for why electrons, not moonshots, will define the next great energy transition.

In this episode we talked about:

 🔋 Why electrification isn’t just inevitable—it’s the most capital-efficient climate solution on offer
 🔄 What "sector coupling" means, and how heat pumps, EVs, and industry can all talk to each other
 🧠 Why AI is the new electrification, and how it makes an increasingly complex energy system legible
 ⚡ The distributed grid, smart meters, and how regulation is slowing everything down
 🔐 Why cybersecurity for backyard solar systems might be our next national security crisis
 🔌 The dark horses of climatetech: agrivoltaics and bi-directional EV charging
