Cbamboo

Cbamboo

Cbamboo’s mission is to drive firms to decarbonise their supply chains and minimise their carbon border taxes. Our software platform will keep companies compliant with the EU’s Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism, a new law applicable to EU importers in dozens of industries.
We are developing AI tools to analyse embodied carbon, forecast CBAM costs, model the knock-on effects on prices, and report back on resulting sustainability metrics. Our products will address the needs of importers, who pay CBAM directly, as well as their suppliers and their customers.

Climate-i

Climate-i

Fluorinated gases (F-gases) are manufactured chemicals which play a critical role in cooling, refrigeration and electricity transmission globally. However, most are extremely potent greenhouse gases, thousands of times more powerful than CO2 and making up a similar share of emissions as global aviation. Climate-i is building technology to predict equipment failure, improve system reliability and efficiency and reduce the carbon footprint of cooling, refrigeration and electricity transmission. Our team is experienced in the development of AI/ML software, IoT systems and sensor hardware, allowing us to seamlessly integrate hardware and software as a service.

Kita

Kita

Kita’s vision is to be the world’s first carbon insurer, de-risking carbon removal solutions to accelerate their ability to scale. ​

The climate crisis requires carbon removal solutions to remove carbon from the atmosphere. Many carbon removal solutions rely on revenue from selling carbon units on the voluntary carbon markets. However, these units lack tailored insurance products for their key risks, particularly under-delivery on pre-paid contracts.​

Kita removes this “carbon delivery risk” from sellers and buyers in the market, using insurance products that guarantee the quality and delivery of carbon units and carbon removal solutions.​
