Our take
In the race against climate change, innovative solutions such as Twelve’s carbon transformation technology has the potential to positively impact a broad variety of sustainable consumer products. Reinventing what it means to be a chemical company, their technology allows companies to eliminate the need for fossil fuels across their supply chains and operations.
Carbon transformation is essentially industrial photosynthesis, converting CO2 emissions into critical chemicals and fuels with just water and renewable energy. Twelve’s technology is able to integrate into existing industrial systems and supply chains. This is a major benefit to companies trying to reach lower emission goals.
In 2022, the company launched its first commercial products and is partnered with a range of companies, including Mercedes-Benz, Procter & Gamble, Shopify, and NASA. With significant funding led by DCVC, Twelve has expanded its team to include key industry veterans Anne Roby, Ram Ramprasad (both formerly of Linde) and David Frank (formerly of Cummins) to help drive the scaleup of the engineering, manufacturing, and deployment of its industrial-scale technology, Opus.
