Our portfolio company Brimstone was selected for a $189 million investment by U.S. Department of Energy (DOE)'s Industrial Demonstration Program. The funding will back Brimstone 's first commercial-scale plant for producing decarbonized cement. Cement production is responsible for almost 8% of global CO2 emissions, and is the most-used material in the world aside from water. This announcement comes after Brimstone 's July 2023 ASTM C150 certification, meaning their cement meets the regulatory requirements (performance, safety, and composition) of ordinary Portland cement. #realestate #climate

☀️ Brothers Patrick and Milan van der Meulen were inspired to start Soly when they were teenagers, after seeing Al Gore's "An Inconvenient Truth." Soly, one of our portfolio companies, is on a mission to make solar energy available to as many homes and businesses as possible by using technology to remove barriers to solar adoption. (For example, on Soly's website, you can get a quote for rooftop solar on your home in about 60 seconds. This process can often take local installers a week or two.) Ultimately, Soly wants to marry software and hardware to create a managed renewable energy ecosystem, connecting the dots between the grid and consumers, where users can save money on utility bills from day one. Watch this interview with our CEO & CIO Brendan Wallace to learn more. #solar #climate #realestate

⛽️ Shell announced it will close 1,000 retail locations, instead investing in growing their EV charging offerings—especially in Europe and China, where there is the most demand. And at existing locations, Shell will install more EV chargers. Could the real estate industry subsume the gas station industry—as drivers opt to charge passively at retail, office, gym, or their homes instead of taking trips to the station? #realestate #EVs

How does a massively successful real estate agent like Mauricio Umansky get his start? He started from humble beginnings: wife, two kids, a two-bedroom condo, and a need to make money without much business coming through. When work was slow, he read and memorized every contract he could, so he'd be the most knowledgable person in any conversation about the housing market -- whether it was at an open house or out at a bar or restaurant. In gaining trust from those initial conversations, he earned clients and worked his way to being one of the country's top agents. #realestate

🎙️ Partner Sarah Liu was featured on the Real Perspectives from The Registry about her point of view on the proptech industry right now and how the industry has changed since she started at Fifth Wall in 2018. She's seen real estate owners and operators change attitudes from, "Why can't I just do this on Excel?" to wanting to use technology to get ahead and stay ahead in just the last five or so years. Some other major themes from the interview: 🌍 Regional idiosyncrasies in the proptech market 👷 How construction tech can address the 500,000-person labor shortage 🤖 Where AI will impact the real estate industry most 👀 How she's tracking data centers 💰 The right acquirers of proptech startups 📚 Her lessons learned in proptech on investing in "must haves" vs. "nice to haves," when venture capital makes sense for proptech startups, and prioritizing efficiency Give it a listen!

This is New York City's first all-electric skyscraper, but it certainly won't be the last. 505 State Street in Downtown Brooklyn has no gas stove, and all heating and cooling is done via electricity. Studios start around $3,500 per month; two-bedrooms almost $8,000; and three-bedrooms at $11,200. By law in New York City in 2026, all new buildings will need to use electric heating and cooling as part of the city's phasing out of fossil fuels: 71% of New York City's CO2 emissions come from building opeations. #realestate #climate
