To ensure our future on Earth by enabling and accelerating every project that reduces humanity’s carbon footprint.

As carbon credits have become an actively traded international commodity, the global market has grown 20% annually. In 2022, tax equity was estimated to be at $20 billion in value and is projected to double in value by 2024. Despite that impressive growth, projects reducing humanity’s carbon footprint still struggle to access financing.
For example, climate projects often require finalised offtake contracts to qualify for underwriting from banks. Even then, the model for underwriting based on these contracts is constantly evolving. Evergrow is the first company dedicated to streamlining and standardizing this process.
The startup is developing a suite of products and services for decarbonization project developers starting with a financial product that shields developers from carbon credit price volatility.
Evergrow plans on using seed funding awarded in 2023 to expand the platform's risk management, transactional, and diligence capabilities, ultimately expanding its suite of products and services so that it can become the ultimate FinTech support system for developers. To do this, the startup will have to expertly navigate the peculiarities of a nascent carbon offset market while meeting challenging regulatory requirements for traditional financial institutions.
