TEA Commons is a coalition effort.
We partner with funders, accelerators, universities, tech transfer offices, and government programs to make world-class techno-economic analysis accessible to every climate innovator — a shared analytical layer for the whole ecosystem.
Early-stage climate teams are backed by over $100B in public R&D and private capital, yet 88% have had no meaningful exposure to TEA. The gap isn't motivation — it's shared infrastructure. Teams across the world re-research the same data points, programs watch cohort after cohort hit the same wall, and experts answer the same questions on repeat.
Solving that takes a coalition: validated data, AI-enabled tooling, and a human network of practitioners and partners who keep the maps honest.
Funders
Philanthropic capital to fund the data build-out and tooling development — an investment in public goods that increases the leverage of every downstream dollar spent on climate innovation.
Accelerators & research institutions
Pilot with us — push your teams to adopt TEA, contribute domain expertise for specific verticals, and give your cohorts validated data and tooling to build conviction faster.
Tech transfer offices
Use the TEA calculation engine for IP evaluation, white space identification, and portfolio-level commercial screening across your technology portfolio.
Government & policy programs
A common analytical baseline for program evaluation, capital allocation, and policy design — the same shared language innovators, funders, and incumbents are learning to use.
Industry & incumbents
Contribute operational data and process knowledge. In return, a stronger analytical baseline across the ecosystem means a higher-quality pipeline of technologies and teams reaching your door.
