The United States is at the dawn of a technology boom to tackle climate change, fueled by historic laws, increased money from both public and private funders and a heightened sense of urgency as we face more extreme weather exacerbated by a warming world. Cipher’s Cleantech Tracker map and accompanying investment chart show the progress of select emerging technologies: carbon management, clean hydrogen production, hydrogen electrolyzer manufacturing and sustainable aviation fuel. These tech types are critical parts of a broader puzzle of technologies, ranging from wind and solar farms to carbon dioxide pipelines to electric vehicle manufacturing. Cipher is intentionally focused on technologies that receive less attention from the media and investors and on sectors that are harder to clean up compared to others, though our tracker and focus will evolve with time. Learn more about the technologies we’re including in the Tracker here. The Cleantech Tracker map is a window into the transformative technological landscape, illustrating where innovations are taking root. We’ll be doing in-depth reporting on the potential impacts they can have on local economies and in the global fight against climate change. The chart, below, summarizes the state of play in our key technology areas.
