Johnson Controls was named to the inaugural USA 25 Most Sustainable Companies list by Corporate Knights and As You Sow. The recognition highlights Johnson Controls’ leadership in making energy efficiency and sustainability core to its business, delivering market-leading solutions helping customers reduce energy costs, cut emissions and improve operational performance.
“As energy costs rise and demand continues to grow, our customers are looking for solutions that deliver real results,” said Katie McGinty, Vice President and Chief Sustainability and External Relations Officer, Johnson Controls. “Investing in smart sustainable solutions is powering the bottom line for companies across industries. Especially in times of uncertainty, efficiency and decarbonization are proving to be powerful drivers of resilience and growth.”
The USA 25 Most Sustainable Companies are ranked by portions of their revenue earned from sustainable business. Of nearly 1,500 U.S. companies evaluated, only 25 were selected for generating a significant share of revenue from sustainable business activities.
Customer success is central to Johnson Controls’ approach. Organizations across sectors are using the company’s technologies to accelerate progress toward climate and energy goals through a trifecta of technologies: efficiency, electrification and digitalization.
For example, Stanford University used Johnson Controls heat pumps combined with OpenBlue’s AI-powered solutions to cut energy costs by $500,000 and greenhouse gas emissions by 68%. A major healthcare institution leveraged OpenBlue to cut energy costs by 40% for each operating room while maintaining precise conditions required for patient care. These solutions are transforming operations, lowering costs and helping customers operate more sustainably across mission-critical industries like hospitals, advanced manufacturing, higher education and data centers.
Johnson Controls’ commitment to sustainable business practices is also recognized through inclusion on CDP’s 2025 A List.
