Green Biologics is Named in the 2011 Global Cleantech 100
The Global Cleantech 100 list is unique in the sector because it highlights the promise of private clean technology companies from all around the world, focusing on those companies which are most likely to make the most significant market impact over the next 5-10 years.
“The third Global Cleantech 100 exemplifies the best in cleantech innovation across the world.” said Richard Youngman, Managing Director, Europe & Asia, Cleantech Group and the founder of the Global Cleantech 100. “This list is based on the collective wisdom and experience of the world’s cleantech leaders and this year it truly reflects not only the most interesting companies, but also the mainstreaming of this dynamic industry.”
“It’s a great honour to be awarded this prestigious award again” said Sean Sutcliffe, Chief Executive. “We are making great progress in turning our advanced n-butanol technology into commercial reality. We have been targeting cheaper cellulosic feedstocks which impact the process in two significant ways. It brings very favourable economics when compared to the traditional petrochemical process whilst at the same time reducing the environmental impact through the use of a renewable source of feedstock. Consequently we have received much interest from around the globe and have now signed several commercial contracts from customers in our key markets of China, India, Brazil and the US looking to retrofit our process technology into their facilities”.
