Christopher Kemper, Chairman, Founder & CEO Journey: A Mission-Oriented Leader in Clean Technology
Chris is the Chairman, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Palmetto Clean Technology, Inc. He is a mission-oriented leader focused on technology solutions to climate change. Chris’ approach blends capitalism with environmentalism, focusing on re-imagining decentralized energy systems and a decarbonized future.
As outlined in his manifesto, the New Utility Revolution, technological advancements and economic advantages created by clean technology are approaching a tipping point in the global energy infrastructure. The need to democratize access to clean energy and the need to reduce global warming and emissions is quickly driving the realization that clean energy now makes good business sense for the planet’s survival.
Chris originally started Palmetto in London after refining his skillset in both policy and finance from organizations including Compagnie Financiere Tradition and the United Nations. In both capacities, he worked primarily with, and in, developing countries to deliver clean technologies in an effort to leapfrog and work outside of an antiquated centralized utility grid structure. In those early days, Palmetto was focused on sourcing, financing, and developing renewable energy projects around the world, but primarily in the least developed countries.
Chris continues to lead the company toward the marketplace, energy-as-a-service model, while ensuring the company is grounded by two major principles - building trust with Palmetto’s customers and driving as much transparency as is possible. As a result of Chris’ hard learned experiences and his vision, today, Palmetto is one of the leading clean technology marketplaces and stands as one of the largest job creators (direct and indirect) in the sector.
With his graduate degrees in hand, Chris aspires to complete his doctorate-level coursework in environmental economics, which he plans to use to continue educating populations about the environment and the ramifications of climate change. Chris is an avid hiker, a struggling fly fisherman, and is active in charitable giving through his foundation that focuses on supporting early-stage companies, entrepreneurs, and mission driven organizations. He lives in Charlotte, North Carolina.
