Clean Growth Fund

Clean Growth Fund is a £101 million UK-based climate venture capital fund established in 2020, with cornerstone investment from CCLA and the UK Government. Its core mission is to accelerate the development and commercialization of innovative clean technologies capable of delivering significant reductions in greenhouse gas emissions across key sectors like power & energy (including solar), buildings, transport, waste management, industry, and agriculture. The fund targets early-stage businesses, primarily at Seed or Series A stage, with scalable solutions aiming for global impact. It provides financial investment, typically between £0.5–3 million initially, alongside hands-on strategic support leveraging its team's deep expertise in commercializing low-carbon innovations. While not a direct provider of services like solar installation or EPC, Clean Growth Fund plays a crucial role by investing in technology providers who enable advancements in areas such as AI-driven analytics for solar plants, high-efficiency heat pumps, and CO₂ capture systems. The fund empowers UK climate tech entrepreneurs with capital and guidance to scale innovations that drive decarbonization, particularly those supporting the growth of renewables like solar PV, contributing significantly to national net zero goals.
