The Planet2050 Hub is Live: Accelerating Climate Project Finance

Reading Time: 3min

The Planet2050 Hub is our digital Climate Finance Platform. Its objective is to make investments in high-integrity carbon projects possible, more transparent, and more reliable. The Hub is now live in its beta phase.

A Central Place for Climate Projects, Data, and Capital

The Planet2050 Hub is the central place where climate projects, data, and capital come together at Planet2050.

The Planet2050 Hub makes climate protection verifiable and scalable using carbon credits as key financial instruments, part of the business models of thousands of projects around the world. The Hub shows:

  • Early-stage projects originated by Planet2050 and its partners, able to reduce or permanently remove CO₂ from the atmosphere

  • How their impact, risks and performance is assessed ex-ante, meaning before the project is fully financed and live

  • Financing options integrating the future sale of carbon credit (forward credit), as well as equity or debt financing options to accelerate the project’s development and impacts.

Why Climate Projects Are Hard to Finance Today

Many Net-Zero solutions fail not because of the technology, but because of financing in early project phases.

Especially with innovative climate projects, there is often a lack of:

  • Reliable and comparable data

  • Standardized review processes

  • Transparent risk assessment

Without these fundamentals, traditional capital providers hesitate—even if the project has strong long-term potential.

At the same time, carbon assets represent an emerging asset class that is not designed for conventional financing models alone. Unlocking their potential requires innovative, specialized financiers who understand how new climate markets evolve—and how carbon certificates can be embedded as part of the financing structure from the outset.

Our Solution: Structured Project Due Diligence

For this reason, we have launched the Planet2050 Hub in its Beta version, thereby implementing our first strategic pillar: Project Due Diligence. The Hub transforms project financing from a hard-to-assess risk into a quantifiable investment opportunity.

The platform was developed and already tested in real-world use as part of our first Request for Proposal (RFP) for Carbon Removal projects.

How the Review Process Works in the Planet2050 Hub

  1. Deep Project Review

    In the multiphase review process, we capture over 250 structured data points per project—from technology and location to financing and scaling assumptions.

  2. Scientifically Founded Criteria

    We work with specially developed Due Diligence questionnaires for six durable Carbon Removal pathways:

    • Biochar

    • BECCS (Bioenergy with Carbon Capture and Storage)

    • Enhanced Rock Weathering (ERW)

    • Mineralization

    • Carbonated Materials

    • Biomass Burial

      All criteria are based on current scientific knowledge and recognized methodologies.

  3. Independent Expert Evaluations

    Internal analyses are supplemented by external evaluations from science, technology, and finance experts. This results in a well-founded and verifiable overall assessment.

  4. Data-Informed Decisions

    The Hub uses AI-supported analyses, automated project summaries, and initial integrations with relevant registries and digital MRV (Monitoring, Reporting, and Verification) systems.

Added Value for Investors and Project Developers

The Planet2050 Hub is more than a platform. It is the scalable backbone of a high-integrity carbon market.

For Investors and Buyers

The Hub replaces uncertainty with data. It provides access to a vetted pipeline of high-quality projects and reduces risks, especially in early investment phases.

For Project Developers

Over 100 project developers are already using our framework to gain access to seed capital—particularly for the transition from the planning to the construction and scaling stage.

What’s Next?

Project developers using the platform beta have entered the Phase 3 of our CDR RFP and will continue to interact. 

The access of the platform will be extended in the near future until public release.

Our goal is to build a digital infrastructure that enables billions of capital to be efficiently directed into high-integrity climate projects worldwide.

This is just the beginning.

The future of durable carbon investments is being built project by project – deal by deal.
