Transportation
How we get around including sustainable transportation and infrastructure options available to
us. Primary challenges include improving carbon-free vehicle options and increasing the amount
of carbon-free vehicles on the road.
Electric Car Manufacturers
In almost every single metro area of the U.S., the total amount of carbon emissions from
passenger vehicles has increased since 1990. The electrification of our vehicles is one of the key
ways that we’ll lower these emissions in cities. And the race to create the next best electric car,
one of the greatest races among green technology companies, has begun.

EV Charging
With the rise of electric vehicles comes a need for innovation in electric vehicle charging
technologies as well. To support an all EV economy, we need batteries that support driving
longer distances and also networks of EV charging stations to grow and meet demand. The
following companies are leading the charge.

Electric Airplanes
Did you know that if aviation were a country, it would be the 7th largest in terms of greenhouse
gas emissions? If no action is taken, climate change pollution from aviation is forecasted to triple
by 2050. Fortunately, the following businesses (among others) are making progress to
build sustainable electric airplanes.

Energy
Transitioning from fossil fuels to renewable energy is a premier focus of the green tech industry.
Primary challenges include decreasing air and water pollution, and decreasing CO2 emissions.
Solar Energy at Home
If you’re looking to take control of your own emissions through installing solar at home, more
and more options are becoming available to you. And for those who would love to have solar but
are not in a position to purchase or install it (can’t afford it, don’t own property, etc.), learn how
you can switch to clean energy to free with Arcadia Power.

Agriculture and Food Services
Transportation and energy are usually what we think of when we think about clean tech, but
some of the best clean tech companies are making headway in the agriculture and food services
space.
These businesses are focused on sustainability of how we grow, distribute, and consume our
food. The primary challenges include water overuse, limited land, distance between where food
is grown and where it’s consumed, and decreasing and repurposing agricultural and consumer
packaging waste.
Urban Sustainable Farming
In How to Feed the World in 2050, the Food and Agriculture Organization of the UN states that
we’ll need to increase food production by 70% while farmable land is only expected to expand
by about 5%. Learn about how vertical farming can solve this problem. And see which
companies are leading the way in our article Cleantech Collides with the Future of Food.
