Capture6 develops integrated carbon dioxide removal and brine-to-freshwater recovery technology that captures atmospheric CO2 emissions, converts brine waste into usable freshwater, and produces green chemicals. Its Monarch project, currently in demonstration in Palmdale, California in partnership with the Palmdale Water District, is designed to process brine from a 0.68 MGD purification plant. Once scaled in Phase 2, Monarch is expected to remove about 25,000 tons of CO2 per year and recover roughly 400,000 m³ of freshwater annually, while lowering regional brine disposal costs by up to 40%. The company has secured project-level, non-recourse financing to advance Phase 2 and previously raised $27.5 million in earlier funding. Beyond Monarch, Capture6 is pursuing a global pipeline of projects including sites in Western Australia, South Korea, the U.S. Midwest, and the United Arab Emirates. The company positions its offerings to address both climate targets and regional water stress through commercial deployments.

Founded in 2020 by KAIST aerospace engineering alumnus Seung-Hyun Yoon, ADRO is an aerotech company that designs and sells aerodynamic body-kits for 12 car brands, including Tesla, BMW, Toyota and Porsche. Its 230+ SKUs not only change styling but also reduce drag and increase downforce; a real-world test on a Tesla Model Y demonstrated a 4.1 % drag reduction and a 4.6 % energy-efficiency gain. Roughly 90 % of the firm’s sales come from overseas, spanning 21 countries, with U.S. revenue tripling from ₩1.8 billion in 2023 to ₩5.2 billion in 2024. Consolidated revenue reached about ₩11 billion in 2024, up 93 % year-on-year, and the company reported ₩6.5 billion for the first half of 2025, a 46 % increase over the prior-year period. ADRO is also building AOX (Aerodynamic Optimization eXperience), a cloud-based, no-code AI simulation tool that promises CFD-level analysis in minutes; beta launch is planned for CES 2026. Partnerships with HP and AWS for AOX’s cloud infrastructure are under discussion. Proceeds from the latest funding will support new product development, U.S. offline center build-out, a German subsidiary, and continued AOX development.

Lumen Energy launched Auto PPA, an automated power purchase agreement software that helps facilities managers and property owners find and implement the best renewable energy for each building in a portfolio. Auto PPA evaluates development, deployment and operation costs and finances solar and battery installations with zero upfront capital, creating new net operating income by replacing future utility grid expenditure with predictable contract payments. The product provides a full cash-flow model and performs underwriting in the background so facility operators can evaluate personalized offers for development, deployment and operation. Lumen supplies two-page clean energy reports that summarize project economics to help facilities managers make a business case. Large commercial real estate players, including Bridge Investment Group, Hines and Tishman Speyer, are using the software, the company said. The Auto PPA launch coincided with Lumen Energy receiving $11 million in Series A funding and the company recently became a participant in the Urban Land Institute’s greenprint program.
