What if a building could upgrade to ultra-efficient, circadian-friendly lighting with zero upfront cost—and actually save money from day one?
In this episode of Green Disruptors: Scaling the Future, host Megan Kjar speaks with George Blackstone, CEO of Watts Matter, about how his company is revolutionizing energy use in schools, government buildings, and industrial spaces around the world. From innovative "Lighting as a Service" models to solar thermal breakthroughs and a refreshing approach to warranties, Watts Matter is on a mission to reduce carbon emissions, boost learning outcomes, and make clean tech accessible for everyone.
George also shares the origin of his mission (hint: it involves An Inconvenient Truth), his unique business model, and what it really takes to scale a global energy solution.
If you're in green tech, government contracting, or ESG-driven innovation—this one’s for you.
