- Carbon Capture, Usage & Storage
Scaled and cost-effective carbon removal will be required to reverse historical emissions and reach climate stability. Carbon capture, usage, and storage are relatively novel fields, and start-ups are competing to define the dominant, cost-effective technology model. - Energy Transition
Climate change mitigation, as well as national and energy security, require innovations in low-carbon energy sources and energy transition. BEVC has the network to source and invest in grid optimization, renewable generation, next-gen batteries, and more. - Construction & Sustainable Materials
The built environment is the largest emitter of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Disruptive innovations in low carbon materials, recyclables, resilient and energy efficient construction, and AI will be essential to climate mitigation and future adaptation. - Food, Agriculture, & Land Use
Globally, more than a quarter of greenhouse gas emissions are linked to food. New solutions are needed along the entire value chain, ranging from product innovations (e.g., meat alternatives, climate resilient crops) to production emissions reduction.
