Climate startups and scaleups
Lignin Industries has a patented revolutionary technology of transforming lignin, the most abundant unused biopolymer on earth, into a renewable and functional biomaterial replacing fossil-based plastics and thereby reducing CO2 emissions radically.
Helios Innovations develops technology that aims to make one of the world’s most energy-intensive processes, evaporation, more energy efficient. The technology makes use of waste heat, which otherwise goes to waste, and vaporizes industrial liquids.
The NoviOcean Wave Energy Converter use highly efficient and well-proven components and a strong and light-weight structure, ensuring full weather resilience and higher power density compared to other wave energy technology.
Small scale plants for liquid biogas. The solution is spelled CryoSep, container-based solutions to get you started with your own production of liquid biogas and carbon dioxide.
We are building a platform for companies to be able to find competence, capacity and capital so that they can implement their climate projects today. We make sure they can buy climate projects as a service, with no upfront costs.
The carbon project development and finance platform for farmers, NGOs and carbon buyers. We support farmers to take care of the planet, and help business achieve their net zero goals with long term carbon forward contracts.
Varmi Scandinavia AB develops and markets energy storage solutions where the energy is stored in the form of heat (heat batteries). These are aimed at home-owners to begin with and later to larger houses and for longer periods.
The construction industry accounts for ~30% of CO2 emissions. Energismeden Re-eko promotes reuse of building materials, inspiring a circular approach to construction and living throughout the building and renovation process.
Coeo’s platform makes it easy to create engaging, digital and hybrid conferences and meetings. Also offers access to our admin system for agencies or repeat customers wanting to create and offer digital conferences themselves.
Karma is an app that connects restaurants, cafes and grocery stores with users eager to purchase unsold food at a lower price. Offers a solution with minimal administration and high reliability.
Enduce drives the transition to environmentally and climate-smart showers. Hot water heating is the single biggest consumer of energy after space heating, for both homes and hotels. Most of the hot tap water is used for showering.
We create and provide the global industry with bio-based functional fluids, enabling efficient production of goods and services. We develop unique high performance functional fluids using our own bio-based formulations.
Rivus Batteries offers truly green and inexpensive stationary energy storage through organic flow batteries. This is important to support the continued integration of renewable energy globally, and to reduce the environmental impact of batteries.
Hyggligt revolutionizes forestry through cutting-edge continuous cover techniques. We help forest owners maximize carbon reduction, biodiversity and economical return through our optimization solution for continuous cover forestry.
Hydroyal, manufacture the key component of electrolyzers, membrane electrode assembly (MEA), in large-scale. Their unique MEA is composed of eco-friendly and inexpensive materials and improves stack efficiency with high hydrogen purity and electrolyzer-friendly conditions (low KOH concentration)
By developing products that enable the haulers to save money on reduced fuel consumption, we contribute to the transition to a more sustainable transport industry by using big data and advanced algorithms.
Through EcoDrop’s innovative technology, we want to make it easy for every household and business to monitor and adapt their water use. Looking to the future, we dream of seeing individual smart meters in almost every household in Europe.
Lignoflow has developed a patent-pending technology for the processing of lignin to produce scalable bio-based materials for a sustainable future. Lignoflow Technologies AB is a spin-off company from Stockholm University.
Blykalla develops advanced small modular reactors (SMRs) utilizing lead-cooled fast reactor technology to provide safe and sustainable baseload energy.
Echandia supply heavy-duty energy storage where the need for durability, safety and power is top priority. All our systems are built for demanding applications and provide a safe, durable, and cost-efficient solution.
