Company: Crux is the software toolset and network that helps renewables developers, corporations, and financial institutions efficiently execute renewable finance to accelerate the energy transition and decarbonize the planet.

We are starting with transactions of the $500B+ of transferable tax credits created by the Inflation Reduction Act. Renewable developers who produce these credits generally can’t use them directly because they have limited taxable income - creating a need for tools and an exchange to transact.

Crux Climate is founded by Alfred Johnson & Allen Kramer. They previously founded another mission-driven company, Mobilize (acquired in 2020). Alfred was most recently Deputy Chief of Staff of the Treasury Department. Before Mobilize, he led Sales/People for Clara Lending and was a Vice President at BlackRock. Before Mobilize, Allen worked at Bain & Company and Assured Labor.

We are an early-stage, mission-driven company, backed by some of the best investors (soon to be announced). We are building a company where people care for each other, ship and improve rapidly, and focus unremittingly on the needs of our partners and customers. We care about building a team that reflects and embraces the breadth of experiences in the country.
