💵 Up to $500K funding for early stage carbon dioxide removal scientists and entrepreneurs though the Breakthrough Energy Fellowship 💵

🌍The Breakthrough Energy Fellows program focuses across all technology categories that have the potential to reduce greenhouse gases, at scale, by at least 500 million tons per year - which includes carbon dioxide removal (hashtag#CDR).

🚀 They are particularly looking for breakthrough technologies that are not incremental, but a *step change improvement* to incumbent technologies and solutions.

The Breakthrough Energy Fellows program has three pathways:

💡 Innovator Fellows are world-leading scientists and engineers who enter the program with a critical climate technology to commercialize and receive up to $500,000 in funding.

📈 Business Fellows are experienced professionals with tech commercialization skills who support the Innovator Fellows in accelerating their path to market.

🥼 Explorers receive funding for earlier stage, higher technical risk endeavours. These projects are typically led by scientists at university labs or research entities and receive between $50,000-$250,000.

🤓 Previous CDR fellows include Sinkco Labs, Silicate, Loamist, Holocene, and Aspiring Materials.

📅 If this sounds like something for you apply now! Applications for their 5th cohort are open now until December 2: https://lnkd.in/d8TBQp8q

🙌 Thanks to Jack Andreasen for bringing this to my attention - excited to see the next cohort get us closer to gigaton scale!
