Investing in Early-Stage Energy Developers with Christine Larson
Build, Repeat. (A Paces Podcast)
<p>In this episode, we sit down with Christine Larson, Head of Strategy & Operations at Modern Energy and interim COO at Industrial Sun, to explore how early-stage developers can thrive in a landscape defined by high complexity, capital intensity, and shifting market signals.</p>
<p>Christine shares how Modern’s model goes beyond funding—providing hands-on operational support like IT and accounting—so founders can focus on what really matters: building and scaling transformative energy projects.</p>
<p>We dive into:</p>
<ul>
<li>Why Modern invests in niche, high-complexity infrastructure like green hydrogen and EV fleet charging</li>
<li>How capital bottlenecks and tariff uncertainty are shaping developer risk</li>
<li>Why utility coordination and contract innovation are now mission-critical</li>
<li>How partnerships, not just tech, will drive the future of energy</li>
</ul>
<p>Christine and James explore how strategic collaboration—between developers, capital partners, and load customers—is key to unlocking the next generation of clean energy infrastructure.</p>
