Company profile
researched Aug 2026Flowcarbon (legal entity Flow Carbon Inc.) is a New York-based company operating at the intersection of financial services, decarbonization projects, environmental commodity markets, tax credits and technology. Its stated focus is designing financing structures for capital-intensive carbon removal and frontier-industry projects, combining investment banking, project finance, capital markets and transferable tax credit expertise to connect developers with institutional lenders and investors.
The company's service set spans four areas: origination (identifying and evaluating companies in infrastructure, decarbonization and emerging technology), project screening and diligence (review of offtakes, commercial revenue streams, technology capabilities and risks, tax credits, environmental credits and insurance), deal structuring (financial modeling, contract bankability, matching clients with private credit and alternative financing providers), and tax credit services (structuring and execution for buyers and sellers of transferable tax credits on renewable energy projects). Flowcarbon also acts as a carbon project developer, and publishes educational and market content under its "Knowcarbon" brand while running CarbonSmart webinars, conversations and summit events.
Earlier in its history the company was characterized as a climate technology and crypto firm that brought carbon credits on-chain, tokenizing credits as the Goddess Nature Token (GNT), which could be retired as an offset, sold, used in borrowing and lending, or redeemed for the underlying real-world credit; through its protocol, project developers could reach buyers purchasing credits directly from project proponents. The current site continues to reference a tokenization partnership and blockchain-based project financing products alongside traditional financing.
Founding story
Flow Carbon Inc. was founded in 2021 in New York by CEO Dana Gibber together with co-founders Caroline Klatt, Rebekah Neumann, Adam Neumann and Ilan Stern, initially to let individuals and corporations buy and retire carbon credits using blockchain.
Business model
Flowcarbon provides end-to-end advisory and structuring services for asset-level financing: originating and diligencing projects, structuring deals with private credit and alternative capital providers, and executing transferable tax credit transactions for buyers and sellers. It also acts as a carbon project developer and has offered corporate carbon credit sales portfolio services and blockchain-based project financing products.
Not disclosed in available sources; services described include advisory and structuring work on project finance and private credit transactions, transferable tax credit execution, carbon project development and corporate carbon credit sales portfolio services.
