"We were impressed by the level of FCA’s in-house expertise, depth of engagement with technical research, and sophisticated understanding of the innovation landscape. In addition, despite being a relatively new organization, FCA has already developed an effective track record of shaping EU policy and contributing to international climate discourse through engagement with UN organizations. We think FCA fills a critical gap in the climate policy ecosystem by connecting lessons and learnings from its ‘boots on the ground’ technical work to high-level policymaking."

''We are now ready to invest in its ambitious growth, supporting its organizational development as well as key programs in hard-to-decarbonize sectors requiring more innovation, namely zero-carbon fuels, industry, long-duration storage, and carbon removal technologies. We believe that if FCA is successful this could significantly improve the German and European climate policy response.''

Founder's Pledge
„The science-based approach of Future Cleantech Architects (FCA) has significantly influenced the strategic investment decision on our new bus fleet. Our fleet consists of about 90 buses and we were considering two options: hydrogen buses (with a fuel cell) or all-electric buses with battery systems. The advice of FCA and their expert team has led us to decide against hydrogen (which will be more urgently needed in other applications) and go for a more efficient and economic all-electric bus fleet instead.”
Prof. Dr. Thomas Hoffmann
''Its aim is to promote innovation in Europe’s hard-to-decarbonize sectors by running key programs in, for example, zero-carbon fuels, industry, and carbon removal technologies. (...) You might be wondering if this kind of innovation really meets the “neglectedness” criterion — don’t we already have a lot innovation? In the US, yes. But in Europe, this kind of organization is much rarer.''

''What is special about FCA's approach is that the organization not only takes on the advocacy for these technologies at the political level, but is also itself part of research consortia for the development of these technologies.''
