Artificial intelligence is rapidly emerging as a powerful tool for climate innovation, with growing evidence of its ability to help curb emissions and resource use across critical sectors. However, its deployment is not without trade-offs. Given AI’s own energy demands, achieving net climate benefits will depend on targeting its use toward the most impactful challenges. 

Early-stage companies are a critical part of this equation. They are key to developing many of the innovative breakthrough solutions needed to decarbonise tough-to-transform industries, yet often face the steepest barriers to adopting advanced technologies like AI. 

This white paper reports from the frontline of AI adoption in the sector, exploring where momentum is building, where systemic gaps remain, and what it will take to ensure AI is effectively unlocked as a key climate solution.
