From solar, to batteries, to home insulation, the Climate Index has more than 100 companies building solutions.
Hold the rest to pressure them to decarbonize
This ~80% of the stock market could transition to use only clean energy, EV’s, and generally run CO2e-free without changing their core business.

Nuclear
Most models project we can’t reach a 100% clean electricity grid without nuclear. Luckily, improvements in technology are making nuclear safer, cheaper, and more efficient.
Landfill Methane Capture
Landfills produce methane, a gas that is 25x more potent than CO2 for climate change. These companies capture methane and use it for power.
Upgrading the Grid
To reach 100% clean electricity, the electrical grid needs to be able to move far more electricity, to far more places, and get much better at storing it for later.

Industrial recycling
From refrigerants to plastics, recycling reduces emissions from manufacturing and gets the world closer to a circular economy.
Fuel Cells
Fuel cells use hydrogen to generate emissions-free energy for power production or transportation.

Electric Vehicles
When paired with zero-carbon energy, electric vehicles allow us to greatly reduce emissions from transportation.

Telepresence
The best way to reduce the emissions from traveling is... to travel less. Better telepresence and work-from-home tools help make this a reality.
Building Efficiency
More efficient: lighting, heating/cooling, and insulation are critical in reducing emissions from buildings

Building Automation
Building automation systems reduce energy and water consumption by reacting to the external environment and the presence of people.
Building Retrofits
Retrofitting buildings with better insulations, heat pumps, and LEDs can greatly reduce their carbon emissions (and save the building owner a lot of money
High Performing/Dynamic Glass
High performance glass reduces heat or cold loss, while dynamic glass reduces the amount of heating and cooling a building needs.
Water Efficiency
A lot of energy goes into purifying, moving, and treating water. Better systems that detect leaks and recycle water save money and reduce emissions
