Show Notes
Houston, known for being the oil and gas capital of the US, is fast becoming a key centre of gravity for clean tech and energy transition IP. Syzygy is one of a number of early-stage disruptors calling the city their home, and we were fortunate to have Trevor Best, CEO, in conversation with Alex to talk about their photocatalysis technology and route to industrial scale.
Listen in to hear about the applications for their novel catalyst and reactor platform, including production of clean hydrogen at ambient temperatures plus co2 reuse and ammonia production. This is technology which has the potential to be highly cost effective at scale because it can avoid the need for high industrial heat in core processes.
We talk about their scale up journey to date, their fundraising (just under $40m to date) and the industrial applications in steel, chemical and many of the harder to abate sectors.

Decarb Connect focuses on the acceleration of industrial decarbonization around the globe. We do this by facilitating collaborations across the emerging decarbonization ecosystem - bringing together industrials (cement, metals and mining, glass, ceramics, chemicals, O&G), technology disruptors, investors and advisors.
Through our membership platform, the
Decarbonization Leaders Network (DLN), we gather a cross sector gathering of energy-intensive industries to share insights and experiences from those leading industrial decarbonization.
Through our
live meetings, we bring hard-to-reach insights and data to the table and we facilitate valuable collaborations and introductions – all with the goal of accelerating decarbonisation.
What is Decarb Connect?
Examining the strategies and deployments around decarbonisation in hard to abate sectors, we speak with CEOs, heads of corporate strategy, CTOs, Innovation/R&D, project directors & heads of carbon management from around the world. Hosted by Alex Cameron of the Decarbonization Leaders Network and Decarb Connect & produced by Janno Media.
