There isn’t an industry standard for forward-looking emissions impact assessment. Because of that, it can be challenging to know what to include—and what to exclude— to ensure novel climate solutions are assessed rigorously and transparently. That’s why we are so excited about our new series of case studies, inspired by real investments from Project Frame collaborators Future Energy Ventures, Starshot Capital, 2150, AENU, Just Climate, Climate Investment (CI), and Climate Dividends, and others. These case studies bring our methodological guidance to life, highlighting the importance of accountability and transparency by diving into challenges analysts face alongside practical steps to help others apply the framework to their own assessments.
