When the 2016 presidential election ended, senior company executives admitted the prospects for their renewable energy "biofuels" company evaporated.

Dmitry Akhanov, the president and CEO of Rusnano USA Inc., a Kremlin-owned venture capital firm nicknamed "Putin’s child," oversaw the Russian government’s investment in Joule and sat on its board along with two other Russians with ties to the Kremlin.
