Over 80 Bay Area companies made the list of 250 "Top GreenTech Companies of 2024," which was compiled by Time magazine and data portal company Statista.
The list that went live Thursday showed 81 Bay Area companies ranked among the top 250 greentech startups the magazine ranked, making 32% of the entire list comprised of local companies. Additionally, close to 45% of all companies listed were based in California, or 112 companies total.
"What’s most striking about the ranking is the diversity of types of companies at the upper reaches of green tech, a range spurred by significant government investment via the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022," said Shyla Raghav, Time's chief climate officer in the post. "The industry now reflects major investments in the panoply of approaches that will be required to reduce the environmental impact of everything from food to heavy industry, and develop renewable power from solar to fusion."
According to Time, the list was "based on … positive environmental impact, financial strength, and innovation," it said in its post. Additionally: "To determine these, Statista analyzed data points such as value of the company's intellectual property portfolio, revenue and funding, and environmental data specific to each industry, such as carbon capture, offsets, and renewable energy generated."
