Cleantech Innovation Research

Future Cleantech Architects is a cleantech innovation think tank based in Germany that focuses on high-impact research and development, targeting technologies that carry the potential to drive down greenhouse gas emissions disproportionately.

What problem is Future Cleantech Architects working on?

More than 50% of technologies needed to reach net-zero emissions are still in their infancy. Future Cleantech Architects is a cleantech innovation think tank that aims to close the remaining innovation gaps to reach net-zero emissions by 2050, and accelerate innovation in critical industries where sustainable solutions are still in very early stages.

Future Cleantech Architects has also repeatedly been able to showcase its work at the Conferences of the Parties (COP) and will continue to do so at COP28 in Dubai, actively participating in a number of panels, events, and sessions with the goal to push cleantech innovation harder at a global scale.

What information does Giving What We Can have about the cost-effectiveness of Future Cleantech Architects?1.

Future Cleantech Architects has been supported by a grant from Founders Pledge, an impact-focused evaluator, due to its innovative work. It was also listed by Vox as one of the top climate action charities in 2022.

Please note that GWWC does not evaluate individual charities. Our recommendations are based on the research of third-party, impact-focused charity evaluators our research team has found to be particularly well-suited to help donors do the most good per dollar, according to their recent evaluator investigations. Our other supported programs are those that align with our charitable purpose — they are working on a high-impact problem and take a reasonably promising approach (based on publicly-available information).

At Giving What We Can, we focus on the effectiveness of an organisation's work -- what the organisation is actually doing and whether their programs are making a big difference. Some others in the charity recommendation space focus instead on the ratio of admin costs to program spending, part of what we’ve termed the “overhead myth.” See why overhead isn’t the full story and learn more about our approach to charity evaluation.
