His appearance on The Grove is part of the show's ongoing collaboration with Clean Tech Growth Lab, a partnership that helps bring founders working across the clean energy and climate space onto the podcast. Jimmy's story reflects what early-stage climate tech building actually looks like, including the uncertainty, the iteration, and the commitment required to keep pushing a hard problem forward.
