The latest climate technology and sustainability developments on November 27, 2025, highlight significant funding, innovation, and policy momentum across climate tech startups, clean energy, ESG investing, and environmental solutions:

•

Climate Tech Startups & Funding

The All Aboard Coalition launched a $300 million fund targeting the "missing middle" stage of climate tech financing, helping startups scale from pilot to commercial deployment. Key investors include Breakthrough Energy Ventures, Khosla Ventures, DCVC, and Clean Energy Ventures. This fund focuses on technologies like long-duration energy storage, green hydrogen, advanced materials, and scalable carbon removal[1].
Additionally, US climate tech investment reached $15.3 billion in H1 2025, with a shift toward later-stage funding (Series C and beyond up 33.3%) and industrial decarbonization surging to 19.3% of total funding, driven by efficiency software, process electrification, and low-carbon materials[2].
Notable startups with recent funding rounds include FreeWire Technologies ($230.2M Series D), ZeroAvia ($140M Series B), Pachama ($79.3M Series B), and Climavision ($100M Series A), focusing on energy storage, clean aviation, carbon capture via AI, and advanced weather prediction respectively[4].
The Wells Fargo Innovation Incubator (IN2) program, with $55 million funding, supports startups like MicroEra Power, SkyCool Systems, and Verv Energy, advancing energy efficiency and reliability in buildings, including innovations in energy storage and smart grid management[6].

•

Clean Energy & Carbon Impact

Industrial decarbonization and energy infrastructure modernization are key investment areas, with AI-driven demand for reliable power and grid upgrades fueling growth. Technologies that reduce carbon emissions through electrification and waste-heat recovery are prioritized[2].
Natural climate solutions also attracted major capital, with Just Climate raising $375 million for projects that deliver measurable carbon impact through nature-based solutions, deploying $30-50 million checks to scale these efforts[10].

•

ESG Investing & Climate Policy

While government-backed R&D funding has slowed, private capital and institutional investors are increasingly focusing on later-stage climate tech investments, signaling confidence in commercial viability and policy alignment[2][7].
The All Aboard Coalition fund’s backing by prominent investors sends a strong market signal encouraging more institutional ESG capital to flow into climate tech scale-ups[1].
The Net Zero Challenge 2025 awarded $790,000 in catalytic grants and prizes to promising startups, supporting innovation aligned with net-zero goals[8].

•

Environmental Innovations

Startups are leveraging AI, remote sensing, and advanced materials to enhance carbon capture, climate resilience, and energy efficiency. For example, Pachama uses AI and satellite data to verify carbon credits and protect forests, while Climavision develops high-resolution weather radar for better climate prediction and preparedness[4].
IN2 cohort startups focus on building resilience during grid outages and extreme weather, integrating fuel backup and passive load reduction technologies[6].

In summary, November 2025 sees robust climate tech funding focused on scaling proven innovations, a surge in industrial decarbonization investments, growing ESG-driven capital flows, and policy frameworks encouraging commercial deployment of clean energy and carbon removal technologies. Total funding highlights include a $300 million scaling fund, $15.3 billion invested in US climate tech in H1 2025, and $375 million raised for natural climate solutions[1][2][10].
