- The market for climate tech is expected to be worth over $2 trillion by 2035, as companies accelerate their sustainable transformations to meet environmental commitments and achieve a leadership position in a decarbonized economy. With expertise in technology, consulting, and engineering, Capgemini is ideally positioned to help organizations not just prepare for a sustainable future-but seize its full potential.
Our recent research shows that 75% of executives view climate tech as critical for their net zero targets. It is becoming essential for organizations of all sorts to tackle the environmental crisis. Beyond reducing carbon emissions, climate tech can also enhance competitiveness and innovation. 62% of organizations plan to boost investments in sustainability in 2025, according to Capgemini research, focusing particularly on climate tech, with battery and solar energy at the forefront of these efforts.
2025 is pivotal for scaling up these initiatives, highlighting the growing recognition of the strategic importance of climate technologies in achieving long-term sustainability and business success.
Climate tech is both a hardware and a software challenge. Capgemini acts as a transformation partner in climate tech across three distinct layers. The physical layer focuses on engineering the infrastructure and equipment needed for climate solutions. Here, Capgemini has partnered with key players like Verkor and ACC Automotive Cells on the industrial ramp-up of a gigafactory, and with many other renewable players on the manufacture and tech transfer of solar panels or the rollout of an electric vehicle charging network.
The protocol layer concerns the deployment of the systems and digital solutions to enable the control, interaction and optimization of climate tech infrastructure and products. Here, we’ve worked with utility companies, automotive and battery manufacturers to deploy and optimize data platforms and engineer AI systems to adapt power networks to demand.
Finally, there’s the application layer, where we work with multiple clients and partners to build and deploy applications and services to enable the right business models tailored for each technology and organization.
At every stage in the development and successful deployment of climate tech, Capgemini has the expertise and network to create solutions. We bring together major players to codevelop the systems that will power the future of this field.
