Methane and Super Pollutants grants

8 listings tracked right now

Funding to detect and cut methane, HFCs and other short-lived climate pollutants. Backed by the US EPA and DOE, the Global Methane Hub and aligned philanthropy, the EU, and oil-and-gas decarbonisation programmes. Listed below are the open methane and super pollutants grant calls in that landscape, taken from each funder's own notice and re-checked on every refresh.

Carbon funding is unusually concentrated in sovereign and philanthropic money, because most of the sector has no natural commercial buyer yet. The large recurring programmes are the US Department of Energy, the EU Innovation Fund and its Carbon Removal Certification work, UK DESNZ, and foundations including the Bezos Earth Fund. Advance purchase commitments from Frontier and Microsoft behave like grants for early deployment, and are worth tracking alongside the calls proper.

This page lists open methane and super pollutants grants currently tracked by Raise Lens — 8 of them right now, sorted with the soonest deadline first. Every listing has been classified against the sustainability taxonomy rather than matched on keywords, so what appears here is methane and super pollutants work rather than anything whose description happens to mention it.

The funders publishing methane and super pollutants grants here include 50146556, United Nations Development Programme, Quadrature Climate Foundation (QCF), among 2 others. Who is funding matters as much as what: eligibility, reporting burden and the realistic timeline to a decision vary far more between funders than between individual calls.
