Solar thermal manufacturer Naked Energy showcased its technology to HRH King Charles III, at an event held by the Sustainable Markets Initiative at Hampton Court Palace.
The 2026 Sustainable Markets Initiative (SMI) CEO Summit brought together over 300 CEOs and industry leaders from across the UK – such as the CEO of Barclays. The summit featured a roundtable and exhibition focused on the role of the private sector in the energy transition. Roundtable panellists also discussed the business case for the energy transition and scaling AI to accelerate sustainable solutions.
At the event Naked Energy exhibited its flagship VirtuHOT and VirtuPVT technology. Naked Energy’s solar thermal collectors are up to three times more energy efficient than conventional PV solar panels.
The exhibition also featured innovative technology across clean energy, fashion and nature preservation, held in a glass marquee on the grounds of the Palace inspired by the 1851 Great Exhibition.
Christophe Williams, founder and CEO of Naked Energy said, “ The King has been an advocate for renewable energy and sustainability for many years. We are grateful to have had the opportunity to demonstrate to His Highness’ the technology and discuss how solar thermal is supporting the UK’s energy transition.”
