About

Carbon Direct is a climate-focused company founded in 2019, specializing in science-backed carbon management solutions for businesses aiming to reduce their carbon footprints and achieve climate goals. With a robust team of over 30 top carbon scientists, Carbon Direct offers end-to-end services to organizations across various sectors, including Fortune 500 companies like Microsoft, American Express, and Alaska Airlines. Their expertise spans a wide range of technologies, from sustainable aviation fuels to reforestation and direct air capture. Carbon Direct's unique value lies in its combination of deep scientific knowledge and software solutions, enabling clients to effectively measure, reduce, and remove carbon emissions. In 2024, the company raised $60 million in Series A funding, backed by major investors like Decarbonization Partners and Quantum Energy Partners, to accelerate its mission of scaling carbon management globally. This funding will help expand their platform, which already enables organizations to embed carbon purchasing directly into their business operations via API integration. The firm's capital management arm, Carbon Direct Capital, also plays a significant role by investing in companies driving innovative decarbonization technologies. Their portfolio includes clean energy firms like ION Clean Energy, Sunfire, and Syzygy Plasmonics. By blending strategic investments and advisory services, Carbon Direct is positioning itself as a leader in helping the world transition to a net-zero economy.
