We’re powering a more prosperous, clean, and secure energy future

Our story

Energy demand is rising for the first time in decades, driving an urgent need for more affordable and reliable electricity. More electricity requires new clean energy infrastructure and strong domestic supply chains for minerals and components — as well as large amounts of capital. But traditional project financing is opaque, fragmented, and analog.

Crux is the capital platform supercharging the clean economy by making capital markets more liquid, efficient, and intelligent.

Our team of 85+ is composed of experts in energy, financial markets, government, marketplaces, and workflow software. Since our launch in 2023, we have raised ~$77 million from venture capital and strategic investors.

95%

of the increase in global power capacity through 2026 will be clean energy, according to the IEA

160%

increase in power demand from data centers by 2030, according to Goldman Sachs

$300B+

invested per year in clean energy and manufacturing project finance
