This week on Reimagined Energy, we're joined by Lark Meadow, co-founder of Aeon Blue, to explore a clean energy solution that feels straight out of the future—but is being built right now in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia.
Aeon Blue is pioneering a modular system that combines seawater electrolysis and direct air capture to create low-cost, carbon-negative e-fuels. With a pilot facility launching in 2026 and a bold vision to scale by 2050, Lark shares how the region’s world-class wind and ocean resources, local workforce, and community support are central to their plan.
Key Takeaways:
🌊 Seawater + Air = Clean Fuel
Aeon Blue’s technology combines seawater electrolysis and direct air capture to create carbon-negative e-fuels—no fossil inputs required.
💨 Cape Breton Is a Renewable Goldmine
With some of the best wind resources in the world and strong community support, Nova Scotia is the ideal launchpad for scalable clean energy.
💰 Fossil-Free Without the Premium
By optimizing upstream processes, Aeon Blue can deliver e-fuels at cost parity with traditional fuels—no green premium needed.
🌍 Carbon-Negative and Circular
For every 1 ton of e-fuel produced, ~10 tons of CO₂ are impacted through removal and prevention—plus, the whole system runs waste-free.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
