Manage episode 473192321 series 3596824
It's great to welcome Dr Zhengrong Shi onto the Spark Club podcast. We had some time before a UNSW Fireside Chat event with Professor Martin Green and Dr Shi. We open our conversation with Dr Shi’s thoughts on entrepreneurship and the six principles of what it takes to build a successful business. We discuss solar manufacturing from its infancy in China and Suntech’s contribution as a cornerstone, ‘root company, of the solar sector. We then explore the distributed solar manufacturing potential for Australia, and other Nations, and how new markets are emerging in Pakistan for example. Dr Shi shares the progress he is making with his new hydrogen venture based in Australia and its potential to leverage the his experience gained in silicon solar cells. We wrap up with the changes in solar policy in China in 2025 and the impact expected to the deployment numbers before and after the June change this year. And lastly Dr Shi shares his views on the future of the energy sector over the next decade. Enjoy the podcast.
