The Company
CoolPlanet is a fast growing global leader in industrial-scale decarbonisation and is currently experiencing significant market expansion. We combine technology and world-leading engineering expertise to help complex organisations reach Net Zero faster, at scale.
We engage in developing and designing innovative energy-efficient solutions tailored specifically to each client site, through examining and modelling their existing processes and equipment in order to identify and implement energy conservation measures. We dramatically reduce carbon emissions and bring the world closer to solving climate change.
Our people are the driving force behind our success. We have a high performance, fast-paced, growth culture that attracts and fosters highly talented and driven individuals. CoolPlanet operates in seventeen different global regions.
The Challenge
Large industrial businesses are facing an ever-more challenging trading environment, with energy prices soaring, carbon borders on the horizon and ongoing global instability. Industry is increasingly automated, so energy is becoming its biggest cost-driver, and pressure is coming from governments, investors and consumers to decarbonise. While some businesses have strategically defined decarbonisation targets, others don't know where to start. We are in a period of transition. Businesses are aware they should tackle their carbon emissions, but in many cases, it has yet to become business critical to do so.
The Solution
CoolPlanet transforms the complex challenge of large-scale decarbonisation into a significant commercial opportunity, repositioning it as an investment rather than a cost. We make organisations more competitive on a global scale by reducing OpEx, increasing operational efficiency and delivering consistency of energy supply - all with minimal disruption. We are a trusted and insightful voice in the decarbonisation conversation, with a deep understanding of how to deliver both established and emerging solutions.
