Two Point O Capital Raises $6.3 Million From Omnivore, Others

Two Point O Capital, a climate financing platform for businesses (including MSMEs and rural enterprises), announced today that it has raised $6.3 million in Seed funding. VC fund Omnivore led the round with participation from Multiply Ventures, RTP Global, GrowX, Spectrum Impact, and a group of angel funders.

Two Point O aims to address the substantial gap in debt financing within the distributed clean energy sector by catalysing investments through innovative financial solutions. While traditional financing meets the capital needs of utility-scale clean energy projects, a vast and growing unmet demand exists—exceeding $10 billion annually—for efficient and flexible capital to finance distributed-level projects.

With this funding, Two Point O will strengthen its tech-enabled platform to source, underwrite, finance and monitor distributed projects in clean energy segments such as solar rooftops, energy efficiency equipment, and wastewater treatment. The company plans to work with various operating and financial partners to build a high-quality portfolio and manage it through its lifecycle on this platform. This partnership-driven approach is needed to create a meaningful impact in this space.
