NEW GRANT FUNDING AVAILABLE
Climate Vault’s award-winning carbon reduction & removal program provides grant funding to stimulate the growth and development of innovative carbon dioxide removal (CDR) technologies.
Interested applicants will receive the RFP via email. We will consider all applications for this round of funding submitted by March 29, 2023. Applications submitted after March 29 will be reviewed as part of a future round.
In addition–the first 10 eligible RFP applications submitted will receive invitations to speak at a future Climate Vault-hosted CDR panel.*
Climate Vault, founded at the University of Chicago, provides an integrated, market-based approach to reducing and removing carbon emissions for organizations and individuals alike.
By purchasing emissions allowances from government-regulated Carbon Compliance Markets, we guarantee our partners immediate and verifiable carbon reduction.
But as CDR developers know, carbon reduction isn’t enough: to counter climate change, we need ultimate long-term carbon removal. That’s why Climate Vault also provides grant funding to help scale new and innovative CDR technologies based on rigorous standards. In doing so, we provide our partners with automatic first-in-line access to cutting-edge CDR technology solutions and help to create and support an ecosystem for scaling CDR solutions.
Funding successful CDR projects provides Climate Vault’s partners with the credible carbon solutions they require–while also stimulating the growth of technologies essential to the future of our planet.

* - This invitation will be extended to the first 10 applicants to submit complete RFP applications that meet all relevant CDR criteria as detailed in the RFP and any accompanying information. Submission of an RFP application does not guarantee participation; attendance at the future CDR panel will be virtual; Climate Vault reserves the right to review and approve content in connection with the panel. Submitter and panel participant must be the CDR tech innovator or project developer; people submitting on others’ behalf will not be eligible for this prize.
