History

Carbon Green was formed in 2006 to support the renewable energy industry, specifically the biofuels and biomass sectors. We joined the Chicago Climate Exchange and Chicago Climate Futures exchange to develop protocols which would create carbon credits for our bioenergy clients.  In 2008 we became the first firm to successfully monetize carbon credits for a biofuels producer, Corn Plus located in Winnebago, Minnesota. Our market-leading knowledge of carbon credits, RINs and the biofuels industry drove us to explore additional opportunities in energy efficient technologies.

Over time, our expertise and focus has evolved along with the market.  Today we are a professional services firm providing comprehensive solutions to numerous companies, from bioenergy to sustainable agriculture .  Our latest projects are focused on increasing the availability of locally-sourced foods in the Chicago market.  We believe strongly in identifying high-quality team players, building strategic long-term partnerships and instilling the passion and discipline necessary to succeed.

Carbon Green's approach is straightforward: align with capable partners, conduct disciplined opportunity assessments, discover new technologies, provide operational insights, and structure financial solutions.  Each of our client partners has their own unique challenges and opportunities.  We can assist at any stage in the process, however, we typically provide the most value when we are involved early and deliver our expertise in a more holistic fashion.
