An inflection point in American energy and manufacturingEnergy demand is growing for the first time in 20 years, driven by surging manufacturing, transportation, electrification, and data centers. Simultaneously, hundreds of billions of dollars are being invested in domestic supply chains for critical minerals and components. Developers and manufacturers will require trillions of dollars in capital to meet growing needs.
Before Crux, the capital markets supporting this transformation remained opaque, fragmented, and complex.

We unlock faster decision making, lower cost of capital, and accelerated investment.
