The report covers 50 early-stage climate-tech companies across energy and grid, industry and recycling, the built environment, transport and agriculture, into which GAV has deployed £55mn to date. Twenty-four companies contributed positively to realised impact in the past year, 22 are progressing toward impact and five have ceased operating. The report also notes that biodiversity leader NatureMetrics is tracked for outcomes other than CO₂e.

Impact is calculated using transparent methods aligning with Project Frame and applied at company level, with portfolio-level results published to protect commercial confidentiality. The case studies span both direct-impact and facilitating solutions, from AI that optimises complex systems (eg balancing the grid, predicting battery health) to methane-leak detection, home energy storage, carbon-negative materials, circular manufacturing, and advanced water and wastewater technologies, showing how early-stage innovation can cut emissions as it scales.
