Turning Oil Wells into Energy Storage with Kemp Gregory

What if the clean energy breakthrough isn’t new infrastructure, but old oil wells?Kemp Gregory, Co-Founder and CEO of Renewell Energy, is converting idle oil wells into gravity-powered energy storage systems to support renewable power at scale. In this episode, we explore an important truth about the energy transition: it isn’t about starting everything anew. Instead, it’s about thoughtfully building on what’s already in place. We dive into the founder’s journey behind the technology, from introducing a bold idea into a deeply entrenched industry to navigating regulatory friction and investor scepticism. Kemp shares the realities of building in climate tech: earning trust, securing policy support, and proving that existing infrastructure can be repurposed into scalable assets.  This is a conversation about doing the hard work of transition, not just talking about it.For more content, visit: Kemp’s LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kemp-gregoryRenewell Website: https://renewellenergy.comEmail Kemp: [email protected] Now: https://catalystnow.netAstroX: https://www.angkasawan.org.myEmail Dr Faiz: [email protected] Faiz’s LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/gofaiz  Creating positive change, one episode at a time.Faiz Space Foundation sponsors this show. https://faizspace.org
