SC Venture is Suma Capital’s strategy to drive climate innovation through technology. It is structured through two complementary funds that support different stages of the entrepreneurial journey: SC Climate Tech Ventures (early stage) and SC Net Zero Ventures (scale-up). Both share the same ambition: to accelerate decarbonisation and contribute to a sustainable economy.
We support founding teams in the early stages of development and commercialisation, backing emerging technologies that tackle climate challenges in sectors such as energy, mobility and industry.
We invest in technology companies with proven traction and validated business models, ready to scale impactful solutions for the energy transition and global decarbonisation.
We are interested in four key trends to achieve a transition to a sustainable energy future: advanced mobility, decarbonisation of industry, renewable energy and enabling digital technologies.
Advanced mobility faces challenges such as the lack of charging infrastructure for electric vehicles, but can be addressed with disruptive solutions. Energy storage and the use of synthetic fuels and hydrogen technologies are also key to decarbonisation and the adoption of sustainable transport solutions.
Several technological solutions are available to decarbonise industry, such as carbon capture, use and storage (CCUS), renewable hydrogen production, industrial heat recovery and waste recovery. These sustainable options are key to reducing industry’s emissions and achieving a low-carbon economy.
Digital energy solutions such as AI, VR/AR, quantum computing, Industry X, Blockchain, robotisation and process automation are key to achieving a transition to a sustainable energy future and improving energy efficiency and resource management.
Technology solutions such as energy management systems, virtual power plants, SaaS platforms, storage and distributed energy are key to the transition to a sustainable energy future. These solutions can improve energy efficiency, optimise resource management and increase the use of renewable energy.
