⏰ The hardest part of a FOAK project often starts after the grant is awarded.
What actually makes clean-tech projects stumble when they move from pilot to first-of-a-kind scale?
In a special block focused on clean-energy financing, Emin Askerov speaks with Akul Raizada about what it really takes to turn EU policy ambition into executable investment decisions.
The conversation goes beyond theory and grant headlines, touching on issues that consistently surface in FOAK projects:
💠 why risk multiplies beyond the technical layer
💠 why costs and resources rarely scale linearly
💠 why EU funding is often misunderstood as “free money”
💠 and how milestone-based funding can quietly stall projects
Akul Raizada is a Policy & Funding Consultant focused on clean energy financing and industrial decarbonisation. He works with corporates, investors, and public institutions to translate EU policy instruments into bankable projects. Based in Paris and active across Europe, MENA, and India, Akul brings a practitioner’s perspective on what it actually takes to move from policy ambition to executable investment decisions.
This episode will resonate with founders, scale-ups, and industrial players working across hydrogen, batteries, grids, and other capital-intensive clean-tech pathways.
