Summary

Carbbin[1] is an OaaS [2] company built on a climate intelligence platform that provides solutions to quantifying the Carbon Performance Potential[3] (CPP) and assessing Climate Physical Risks[4] for ex ante climate-informed investment decision making. Founded in 2025 by Dr. Jaume Albertí[5]. The company provides science-based climate analysis of climate solutions in minutes, instead of days.

History and Leadership

Carbbin was established in September 2025 to address the lack of use of science in climate investment and climate decision-making. Carbbin fixes the data gap in early-stage climate due dilligence by combining RAG-powered, AI-generated PDF reports grounded in peer-reviewed literature, geospatial environmental data, emission factor databases, and market adoption models.

The founder, Jaume Albertí, is expert in Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) former research line lead at the UNESCO Chair in Life Cycle and Climate Change. His doctoral research focused on the application of LCA to complex systems and his thesis was awarded with the best environmental thesis prize[6] by the University of Girona. In 2025, Carbbin was awarded[7] the aGOe[8] Prize for Creativity and Entrepeneurship.

Methodology

Carbon Performance Potential (CPP)

Carbbin's CPP core engine is designed for assessing solutions at any stage, early-stage included, and works across any sector, even with limited information. CPP assessments are built upon LCA methodology and the Project Frame[9] Guidelines[10], a global standard for assessing forward-looking climate impact.

Carbbin evaluates CPP by:

  • creating an ad-hoc search for the specific case,
  • determining emission pathways and solution effects,
  • setting relevant incumbents and market segments, and
  • crossing the information gathered against emission factor databases, academic literature, and market data.

The result is a comprehensive assessment including:

  • an investment committée ready executive summary,
  • market sizing (TAM, SAM, SOM), and
  • 10-year adoption and avoided emission[11] trajectories.

Users can add additional technical instructions to focus the analysis and can iterate over the performed assessment.

Climate Risk Assessments

Following EU Taxonomy - Appendix A, Carbbin evaluates exposure to acute hazards (i.e.: floods, storms) and chronic climate shifts (i.e.: temperature changes, sea-level rise) under different climate scenarios (i.e.: RCP 4.5 and RCP 8.5).

Carbbin evaluates companies' climate risk by:

  • Identifying which physical climate risks may affect the performance of the economic activity (cost, turnover, value chain) during its expected lifetime.
  • Assessing how the identified climate risk factors could develop during the expected lifetime of the asset.
  • Rating the risk level and concluding what, the development of the climate risk factor, would represent to the company.

Services

The platform enables investment professionals to generate "decision-grade" climate reports in minutes. Key features include:

  • CPP: Forecasting net unit impact and market adoption of climate solutions
  • Enabling impact analysis: assessing how enabling technologies contribute to enhance a direct solution's either market adoption or avoided impact.
  • Climate Risk: identification and quantification of climate physical and transition risks to a company's operations over its assets' expected lifetime.
  • Realised impact: transforming forecasted net unit impact and market adoption of climate solutions into real realised emissions.
  • Portfolio assessment and data intelligence: evaluating your portfolio behaviour and feeding annual reports.
