Portland: Where Climate Tech Meets Climate Action

The city that led the green building movement and launched the first-of-its- kind clean energy fund for frontline communities holds a steadfast commitment to stewardship of the earth, its climate and the people who live here.

For Portland, this commitment makes good business sense. In 1993, Portland was the first U.S. city to create a local action plan for cutting carbon. We are on a path to deep decarbonization of all sectors with a net zero commitment by 2050. Our history of climate action has created a home for a talented climate tech community that has been honing its craft for more than four decades.

As the most affordable major city on the West Coast with excellent access to key markets, clean energy companies and talent, Portland is a place where people want to live and join a community of like-minded, values-driven companies. We share a commitment to protecting the Earth and our beautiful home in the Pacific Northwest.
