Zero Carbon Fund to invest £1.5m+ in hard science startups to alleviate climate crisis


The Zero Carbon Fund today closed to new investment after raising a total of more than £1.5m over the last 6+ months. Zero Carbon Capital, who deliver the fund in partnership with Sapphire Capital Partners, aims to accelerate the development and commercialisation of hard science solutions to the most pressing issues of climate change.


“We’re so excited to start working with companies that are poised to have such a big positive impact on our Net Zero transition,” says Pippa. “We


believe that investing in early stage deep science innovation can make climate solutions better and cheaper, and this will accelerate the Net Zero transition”


Over the next year the fund aims to invest in ten ambitious EIS-eligible startups with breakthrough ideas that can scale to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by at least half a gigaton per year in some of the big unsolved pro


blem areas in the climate space, such as energy storage, cooling, food & agriculture, industrial heat and carbon capture.
