ClimateHaven and the Regional Water Authority, New Haven’s local water utility, have partnered to develop the Water Innovation Hub, a center for entrepreneurs to rapidly advance novel technologies addressing water-related challenges in our ecosystem. The hub supports emerging research on water technologies such as wastewater management, water filtration, PFAS treatment, industrial decarbonization, green chemistry, and ocean-based carbon removal.
