Summary table of the funding deals for the climate tech market since 2024

We define the climate tech market as technologies whose main purpose is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions or help people, assets and ecosystems adapt to the impacts of climate change.

We include solutions across energy, mobility, buildings, industry, food and land use, carbon removal, and the digital and financial tools that directly enable these mitigation or adaptation outcomes.

We exclude broad ESG and sustainability tools, general environmental or social impact solutions without a clear climate focus, and consumer products whose climate impact is indirect, marginal or mainly marketing-driven.

We focused exclusively on pure players, defined as companies with at least 70–80% of their business directly tied to the climate tech market.

Our analysis has been done at a global level with a minimum funding threshold of $300k.

You can also read our detailed analysis to understand how funding activity in the climate tech market has evolved recently.
