Investment thesis
Climate Capital invests in early-stage climate tech companies building the infrastructure layer for the coming decade, taking small initial stakes in 50-60 startups annually with the option to concentrate on winners via follow-on SPVs. Its focus areas span energy abundance (grid intelligence, next-gen nuclear, geothermal, critical minerals, transmission, distributed energy), physical infrastructure (battery storage, bioindustrial materials, resource circularity, robotics), and resilience and adaptation (disaster mitigation, infrastructure resilience, insurance, water and food systems). The firm leverages a network of 500+ portfolio founders and 100+ co-investing VCs to gain early deal access, deploying $25K checks to enter competitive rounds alongside top-tier funds, while giving its 2,000+ LPs direct cap table access and transparency.
