Martin Stanley: “We can utilise local people and local staff as part of our economy approach.” - Harnessing Local Resources for a Sustainable Energy Future | Season 2, Episode 2

In this episode of The Challenge With Green Energy?, our host Lizzie Simon sits down with Martin "Stan" Stanley, the Founder and Director of GreenCo Energy, to explore his journey from vegetation management to green energy innovation.

Stan shares how his work, which began with managing trees using advanced technology like LiDAR, has evolved into a focus on transforming green waste into renewable resources such as hydrogen, electricity, food-grade CO2, and industrial carbon credits.

 

During their conversation, Stan discusses the challenges and opportunities within the green energy sector, highlighting how GreenCo Energy’s localised, low-carbon model aims to reduce emissions while creating jobs. By processing low-grade waste into renewable energy without harmful emissions, GreenCo Energy is pushing the boundaries of sustainable innovation.

 

Stan and Lizzie also touch on the importance of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the energy transition, emphasising the need for better support and funding. Stan’s insights offer a powerful look at how green technology and localised solutions can make a big impact on the climate crisis.

 

For those interested in sustainable innovation and the future of green energy, this episode is a must-listen, offering valuable perspectives on the power of turning waste into resources and the role of SMEs in driving change.
