Aligned Climate Capital

Aligned Climate Capital is a venture capital firm based in New York, with a sharp focus on investments that drive the decarbonization of the global economy. Founded in 2019 by veterans of the U.S. Department of Energy’s Loan Programs Office, Aligned has quickly established itself as a leader in climate-related investments, managing over $1.8 billion in assets across three primary strategies: venture capital, distributed solar, and climate infrastructure. Aligned's investment strategy revolves around identifying and backing companies that contribute to significant environmental impact while delivering strong financial returns. Notable investments include UtilityAPI, Sealed, and SWTCH, which are involved in energy services, consumer services, and commercial services, respectively. The firm tends to focus on later-stage ventures and infrastructure projects within the United States and Canada. The team, led by CEO Peter Davidson and COO Brendan Bell, leverages their deep expertise in finance and renewable energy to guide their portfolio companies towards growth and impact. The firm is headquartered in New York and Los Angeles, with a small but highly specialized team dedicated to aligning the success of their investments with the broader goal of mitigating climate change.
