JMI Equity's Sustainability Plan

We aspire to drive growth that benefits all our stakeholders, from our limited partners and colleagues to our portfolio company management teams and employees, as well as our local communities. We’re data-driven and understand that growth must be achieved in an environmentally sustainable fashion. By reducing our carbon footprint, investing responsibly in companies that may advance ESG principles, and using and sharing data to track our progress and continuously improve our processes, we are taking action to create a cleaner, healthier and more sustainable future.

Our Initiatives
Carbon Neutral
Carbon Neutral

Being carbon neutral means your carbon emissions are balanced by carbon negative projects to eliminate your impact on the environment. Research shows that sustainable businesses have an advantage over others. By becoming a carbon neutral business, you can help fight climate change, increase your company value, improve employee recruiting and retention, build brand loyalty, attract more customers and improve the overall community. Investing in carbon negative projects offers a effective solution to take action against emissions from essential business operations that can't be eliminated.

Recurring Commitment
Recurring Commitment

A recurring commitment to sustainability provides your customers, employees, and prospective employees with proof that your company is working towards a better planet for all. This commitment can include quantifiable goals set by your company and transparency on emissions and business practices.

Calculate Your Footprint
Calculate Your Footprint

Knowing where you are is the best place to start. Green Places uses methodology developed and supported by top climate institutions like UC Berkeley to calculate a business’ carbon footprint, identifying the total emissions your business is responsible for producing, and using (directly and indirectly). Understanding your emissions allows companies to be smart about what next steps they take on their climate journey!

Projects We Support
Northern China Wind Farm
Hello Northern China Wind Farm

This project includes 33 wind turbines that, all together, produce approximately 124,300MWh per year. The renewable energy is sold to the North China Power Grid, strengthening their electrical grid resilience and expanding their energy sources for generations to come.

49.5 MW Wind Power Project
Hello 49.5 MW Wind Power Project

This project supports the creation and operation of wind turbines in multiple regions in Pakistan which ultimately supply power to the grid. The total installed capacity of the project activity is 49.5 MW equipped with 33 WTGs of 1.5 MW installed capacity each. Prior to this project, the only source of energy in the region was fossil fuel intensive. The project activity is expected to reduce emissions of GHGs by an estimated 91,085 tCO2e per year by displacing equivalent amount of the electricity from the grid.

IdleAir Emissions Reduction Project
Hello IdleAir Emissions Reduction Project

This project supports 118 Advanced Truckstop Electrification (ATE) locations across the U.S. ATE is an idling reduction solution that allows a driver to completely shut down the main propulsion engine of the diesel truck, eliminating all of the air pollution associated with diesel engine idling. This helps reduce the carbon emissions from engines that would otherwise be idling to keep the cabin comfortable during rest stops for drivers.

New River Landfill Gas Methane Destruction Project
Hello New River Landfill Gas Methane Destruction Project

The New River Solid Waste Management Facility is an active municipal solid waste sanitary landfill in Dublin, Virginia. The landfill opened in 1997 and annually accepts on average 150 tons of municipal solid waste. The project consists of an active landfill gas collection and control system (GCCS) in Area A of the facility. The GCCS consists of 16 vertical extraction wells. The Landfill Gas (LFG)was originally flared, but since 2008 an electric generation station has been installed that receives the LFG. With yearly non-methane organic compound (NMOC) emissions of 24.1 Mg, the landfill is not required by EPA regulations to reduce emissions.

Phlogiston Phase I
Hello Phlogiston Phase I

This project reduces GHG emissions as a result of the enhancement of an existing control technology at a single adipic acid plant (AAP) that destroys N2O emissions above the baseline destruction rate that would otherwise have been vented to the atmosphere. Prior to the project activity, the exhaust from the adipic acid process was directed to a Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) unit or a Thermal Reduction Unit (TRU). The SCR destroys nitrogen oxides (NOx) as part of the facility's Clean Air Act Title V permit requirements; however, the SCR is ineffective at abating nitrous oxide (N2O). The TRU destroys N2O and NOx to a much lesser extent. As a result, in order to comply with the facility's Title V permit, the SCR was operated, historically, for a significant fraction of the year. Phase I of the project activity involves the installation and operation of a new absorption column at Ascend Performance Materials Operations LLC that will convert NOx to nitric acid via a high-pressure water absorption process. This absorption column will allow the Thermal Reduction Unit (TRU) to accept a higher percentage of the flow from the adipic acid plant, resulting in a higher quantity of N2O destroyed.

THERM Advanced Refrigeration
Hello THERM Advanced Refrigeration

This project revolutionizes US grocery stores by replacing harmful refrigerants with natural ones, slashing greenhouse gas emissions drastically. It marks a significant step towards sustainability, reducing operational costs and energy consumption. Over its lifetime, the initiative will prevent emissions equivalent to millions of tons of CO2, fostering a healthier environment. It also promotes industry-wide shifts towards eco-friendly practices, contributing to economic growth and inspiring further innovation in green technologies.
