Helping companies make low-carbon innovations

We partner with leading companies to hasten market innovations that reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

With over 20 years of experience working with leading U.S. companies, we know what it takes to achieve a successful partnership with business and environmental benefits.

In every partnership, we aim not just to improve one company’s performance, but to spur environmental gains across an entire economic sector.

Working with leaders across all industries

Walmart: World’s largest retailer

No company has a greater potential to effect environmental change than Walmart — which is why we opened a Bentonville office down the street from their headquarters in 2007.

Today, we're working with Walmart to make sure they reach their commitment to eliminate 20 million metric tons of greenhouse gas pollution by 2015.

Climate Corps: Training tomorrow’s chief executives

Our fellowship program places MBAs in the biggest U.S. corporations— AT&T, Facebook, McDonalds, Microsoft, Target and more — to develop practical, actionable energy efficiency plans.

Kohlberg Kravis Roberts: Green returns for private equity investment

Our work helping private equity firms find ways to reduce environmental impacts while building more valuable, competitive companies provides us with powerful means to impact a wide range of businesses across the economy.

FedEx: Launching an industry revolution

Together with FedEx and Eaton Corporation, we developed the world's first commercially successful hybrid delivery truck. Today more than 100 vehicle fleets are using hybrid trucks.
