It’s always nice to get recognized for your good work.
The Guardian and Cleantech Group™, LLC, providers of leading research, events and advisory services for the cleantech ecosystem, have announced the Global Cleantech 100 – the first ever list of this scale highlighting the most promising private clean technology companies around the world. Supported by the Carbon Trust, the Global Cleantech 100 recognises companies at the forefront of cleantech innovation offering solutions to some of the world’s most pressing environmental challenges.
The most interesting part to this list is the little sidebar widget that shows a numeric indicator of the amount of buzz around each company. Fisker has been making a consistent climb to the top over the past 90 days. This is a very good sign as we are rapidly approaching the much anticipated arrival of the first production models to roll off the assembly line. It’s very important for a company in this position to maintain reasonable expectations. We saw this once again this week with the release of the 67 mpg fuel economy numbers. Of course, time to market is the one everybody is watching. We have all seen there’s a big difference between getting the first few vehicles out the door and having a quality, consistently built product.
