Lowercarbon Capital

Lowercarbon Capital believes the shift away from transformative ventures has weakened venture capital as a force for true innovation. They reject the notion that all technological avenues have been exhausted; the internet, for instance, remains vastly untapped beyond its current applications.

In April 2023, Lowercarbon Capital led a $40 million Series A funding round for Avalanche Energy, a startup developing modular fusion micro-reactors. This investment aligns with Lowercarbon's mission to support breakthrough technologies capable of significantly reducing global carbon emissions. Fusion energy, particularly in compact forms like those developed by Avalanche, offers a promising pathway to provide abundant, clean energy without the environmental impact associated with traditional energy sources.

By investing in Avalanche Energy, Lowercarbon Capital aims to accelerate the development and deployment of fusion energy solutions, contributing to a sustainable and low-carbon future. This partnership underscores Lowercarbon's commitment to fostering innovation in the energy sector and supporting companies that have the potential to make a substantial impact on climate change mitigation.
