Over 30 companies, including Aurora Hydrogen Inc., Electric Era Technologies Inc., ChargePoint Holdings Inc., and Carbon Clean Solutions Ltd., have benefited from investments from these funds.

Initial investments from the latest fund will range from USD 1 million to USD 5 million, primarily targeting Series A through C rounds. The objective extends beyond financial returns, aiming to reinforce Chevron's traditional oil and gas operations, support its multi-billion dollar diversification efforts into areas like carbon capture and hydrogen, and lay the groundwork for future opportunities in emerging technologies. This strategic move comes at a time when major oil companies face mounting pressure to reduce emissions and expand their business portfolios. This investment will play a pivotal role in the global solar and wind markets.
