Quilt, a smart home climate solution company, announced a $33 million Series A funding round co-led by Energy Impact Partners and Galvanize Climate Solutions. Lowercarbon Capital, Gradient Ventures, MCJ Collective, Garage Capital, Incite Ventures, and Drew Scott also participated.
Quilt was created because about 20% of U.S. global warming emissions come from homes. The largest driver of home emissions is heat generated by burning fossil fuels.
This funding round will drive Quilt’s launch and expansion into homes nationwide to supercharge the clean energy transition. And Quilt will first launch in the Bay Area, followed by Los Angeles, and expand to new markets in the U.S. to meet rising demand for a smart, intuitive, design-forward heat pump option. And Quilt’s waitlist has thousands of interested homeowners.
Through Quilt’s advanced heat pump technology, homeowners will get a sleek and modern system designed to blend seamlessly into any home environment, combined with intuitive room-by-room control, occupancy awareness, and predictive technology for unmatched energy efficiency and comfort.
