WHY GREEN STRATEGIES?

Green Strategies Inc. is built around the concept that as the world becomes more attuned to issues such as clean air, clean water, energy security, climate change and resource conservation, significant business opportunities will arise from the development of products and practices consistent with these values.

In the future even more so than in the past, the private sector will play a key role in solving our environmental and energy-related challenges. And since markets for products and processes that further both economic and environmental goals are and will continue to be heavily affected by government policy, we help companies and investors develop and implement business plans that anticipate and benefit from these powerful trends. For example, we help clients maximize the opportunities presented by the government's role, minimize the obstacles that government actions may impose, and develop strategic partnerships among a wide variety of stakeholders.

BECAUSE YOU CAN'T BUILD A BUSINESS ON A TWO-LEGGED STOOL:

The Example of "Clean" Energy

Business success for clean energy technology and service companies depends on three critical factors: the technology, commercialization of that technology (markets) and public policy. The first two are intuitively obvious. Technology is at the heart of the clean energy sector, but technology alone does not spell commercial success. It is necessary to marry good technology with commercialization skills in order to access the marketplace successfully.

But what is creating and driving the marketplace?

The market for clean energy technologies is critically dependent on governmental drivers. Unlike many conventional sectors, public policy, legislation and regulation are critical drivers of the market for clean energy technologies and services. Whether it is an international treaty, national clean air policy, or local and state regulations, public policy decisions shape the market and create opportunities for clean energy technologies. Accordingly, successful companies and investors need to understand, take advantage of, and help shape those policies that can impact them positively or negatively.
