Starting a company to develop an energy technology that fights climate change is hard—a lot harder than starting a software company. That’s what John Hennessy, Stanford professor (and former president) and chairman of Alphabet , told attendees at the Stanford Global Energy Forum , held in-person this month on the Stanford University campus.
