The Future 50 ranking includes companies that derived at least 50 per cent of their revenue from clean business activities. To have been included in the ranking, each company must have experienced a year-over-year growth in revenue over the two most recently available fiscal years while having generated a minimum revenue threshold of $100,000.
Clir is an industry leading cleantech company, established to accelerate renewable energy production and reduce humankind's impact on the planet. The company incentivises the shift to wind and solar energy through improved production, health, insurance and financing.
“We are proud to be included in the inaugural list of Canada’s fastest growing renewable companies along with others whose business activities align with the transition to a global clean economy” said Gareth Brown, Chief Executive Officer, Clir Renewables. “As we grow, we continue to innovate, finding new ways to combine data, technology and industry expertise to help maximise the financial returns of wind and solar energy portfolios.”
Toby Heaps, founder and CEO of Corporate Knights, added that all companies are now in the business of dealing with climate change, whether they like it or not.
“Their ability to not only adapt but to also continue innovating and growing amidst uncertainty is admirable” said Mr Heaps. “Our reason for devising this unique list is our belief in the success of these companies being pivotal to creating a more sustainable Canada, as well as acting as inspiration for other entrepreneurs.”
