Global Thermostat Signs on as Partner of Formula E Championship
April 14, 2014
Leading carbon capture company Global Thermostat has signed on with the FIA Formula E Championship to significantly reduce the CO2 emissions generated by the series and to jointly promote sustainable technologies.
The debut of Formula E ushers in an innovative age where a race on the world stage will become the platform to showcase and promote sustainable technology for the environment.
Ben Bronfman, help Principal of Business Development at Global Thermostat, said: “We are very excited to enter into this partnership between Global Thermostat and Formula E. They are one of the first organisations, outside of our development partners, that recognise the power and value of our transformative platform. Formula E is serious about what they are doing and we look forward to working together.”
Graciela Chichilnisky, Co-Founder and Managing Director at Global Thermostat, said: “The two largest sectors in terms of carbon emissions are energy and transportation. Global Thermostat is already creating carbon negative power plants and with Formula E it can create carbon negative automobile transportation – truly cutting edge technology for our new millennium.”
Formula E has already attracted many high-profile environmental supporters with the likes of Sir Richard Branson, Leonardo DiCaprio and former UK science minister Lord Paul Drayson all associated with teams for the opening season.
Enrique Bañuelos, Chairman of the Board of Directors at Formula E, added: “This partnership between Global Thermostat and Formula E is a natural one, as the core beliefs and goals associated with both companies are the same: reduce atmospheric carbon emissions and progress the dialogue towards a sustainable future. It is our intention to bring carbon negative solutions to the hearts of the host cities around the world. Global Thermostat’s breakthrough technology, together with all of our partners, will make it possible for Formula E to pave the way towards uniting sustainability-minded corporations, entertainment, global governments, and the sports world.”
