Description
Alfred Johnson, co-founder and CEO of Crux, joins us to share his fascinating journey from the corridors of the U.S. Treasury Department to the dynamic world of clean energy finance. Promising a new perspective, Alfred walks us through his experiences in government service during the Obama administration, and his pivotal roles at BlackRock and Mobilize, which he founded and later sold. Throughout his career, Alfred's commitment to public service has remained unwavering, even as he transitions into revolutionizing the clean energy space with Crux, a platform pioneering the use of transferable tax credits.
Explore the significant impact of the Inflation Reduction Act and how it has birthed a burgeoning market for transferable tax credits, a groundbreaking resource in clean energy finance. Alfred explains the intricacies of how Crux is capitalizing on this asset class by enabling developers and manufacturers to transact billions of dollars in credits directly with investors, transforming how clean energy projects are funded. As clean energy financing evolves, platforms like Crux are not just meeting market demand but driving it, making them indispensable players in this rapidly changing landscape.
In our conversation, we also navigate the future of clean energy legislation and what it means for companies like Crux. With the IRA's long-term provisions fostering bipartisan support, Alfred offers insights into how evolving policies, including Vice President Kamala Harris's proposals, could shape the industry's trajectory. Drawing from his experiences as a second-time founder, he reflects on the challenges and opportunities in building mission-driven companies, while sharing valuable lessons learned along the way.
