About Crux

Crux is the capital markets technology company changing the way clean energy and manufacturing projects are financed in the U.S. Crux’s platform, market intelligence, and expert team help developers and manufacturers raise capital through all stages of project development and operation. The company’s first offering is the leading platform for tax credit transfers.

Energy demand is rising and project development and manufacturing are booming in the United States. Clean energy and manufacturing tax credits are the policy tool for companies building projects and manufacturing critical products and materials. And for the first time, these credits are transferable – creating a new and powerful market mechanism to fund clean energy projects. The market for transferable tax credits needs new standards, more buyers, expanded financial products, and purpose-built software.

Our team of 30 is composed of experts in energy, financial markets, government, marketplace and workflow software. We are building rapidly in this new large market.

Crux has raised ~$27M in capital from some of the best investors, including Andreessen Horowitz, Lowercarbon Capital, New System Ventures, Overture, Ardent Venture Partners, QED, Canapi, and others. These funds are joined by strategic investors including Pattern Energy, Clearway Energy, EDF Renewables, Intersect Power, LS Power, Orsted, Hartree Partners, and others who collectively generate billions of dollars of tax credits annually.
