The GoingGreen 100 Winners

AlwaysOn presents the winners of the first annual GoingGreen 100, a list of private companies that are not only thriving in greentech but also helping large companies to go green.

The companies were judged using the following categories: innovation, market potential, commercialization, stakeholder value creation, and media attention or “buzz.” Categories included transportation, agriculture, energy management, energy storage, nanotech, clean energy, solar, waste management and water.

The overall winner was GridPoint, an energy storage company. All the winners will be honored at GoingGreen, an executive summit held at the University of California, Davis from September 10-12.
