Common Energy is a verified, high-traction climate technology company with estimated annual revenue of ~$15M and ~80 employees, significantly exceeding the 'Minimal Traction' baseline. While the project itself demonstrates high real-world utility and strong market timing, the submission quality was poor (e.g., submitter name 'ShadowKeeper', false claims like 'everyone' for reach, and 'most people' for traction). The score reflects the strong underlying business fundamentals (validated externally) penalized by the low-quality, troll-like submission details.
