Results-based climate finance platform

Problem Addressed
In the anthropocene epoch, climate change is being accelerated by human related activities from burning of fossil fuel, intensive agriculture, urbanisation, deforestation and pollution resulting in extraordinary changes on Earth.
Businesses want to reduce their carbon footprint. But they lack reliable data to make the case for transformation based on return on investment. What cannot be measured, cannot be tracked and therefore cannot be changed with confidence.
Action on decarbonisation will require:
- Financial and energy data to be accessible
- Data reflective of reality
- Live, granular data
- In depth understanding of combined financial and energy models
- Connection of the energy data space and how that impacts customers’ cash flows and asset values
Case Study
Early proof of concept has been demonstrated via decarbonising using solar, battery and multiple next best actions to get a 34% reduction in emissions. This was based on data, models and weatherization. Currently CarbonLaces are working with a large bank, technology company and partners in the built environment. As a SaaS based solution, they reduce the friction of 3-4 FTEs equivalent.
