About ClimateClever 

ClimateClever is Australia’s first community-focussed climate-tech platform and program that assists households, schools and now businesses to measure and reduce their carbon footprint and save money on utility bills. The innovative Perth and Sydney-based startup initially launched as an Edtech biz in 2018, but expanded into Homes in 2020 and has just launched their ClimateClever App for Businesses. Often partnering with Local Governments, the ClimateClever Platform provides a unique opportunity to quantify climate action at the local level. Council partners benefit from the aggregated, de-identified/anonymous community climate data, which they use for sustainability reporting within their community. ClimateClever’s vision is to create a network of climate champions within our communities leading the way in creating a low carbon future.
