On February 28, 2023, we held a virtual fireside chat with Douglas Schultz, Chief Operating Officer of the new U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations (OCED) -- led by Jennifer Simpson, Executive in Residence at Anzu Partners, a venture capital firm focused on breakthrough industrial technology companies.
Recent legislation, including the bipartisan Infrastructure Law and IRA, have broadened the DOE’s ability to foster clean energy innovation through public-private partnerships –including allocating more than $25 billion to OCED for such projects. In addition to discussing the contours of this historic legislation and the creation of the DOE’s Office of Clean Energy Demonstrations, Mr. Schultz engaged in an open dialogue regarding how firms can collaborate with the DOE on clean energy debt and equity financings.
