Raise Green is a financial technology platform for municipal projects to finance impact investments. It empowers individuals with the tools they need to create and invest in climate solutions such as community solar systems. The company announced the completion and launch of the first phase of their collaboration to develop a software solution that can be used in the IBM Cloud with Red Hat OpenShift. This enables entrepreneurs to start their own solar energy companies and finance their climate technology companies. Franz Hochstrasser, CEO and co-founder of Raise Green, explains how digital tools can help climate scientists become active. Raise Green turned to IBM Global Business Services (GBS) to build the originator engine. This digital platform allows anyone with income experience to navigate the complexity of project development with a step-by-step software solution.
