LanzaTech CEO Dr. Jennifer Holmgren Recognized in TIME’s Inaugural TIME100 Climate List
November 16 2023 - 8:05AM
Today, TIME named Dr. Jennifer Holmgren, Chief Executive Officer of
LanzaTech (NASDAQ: LNZA) to the inaugural TIME100 Climate list,
recognizing the 100 most innovative leaders driving business
climate action.
Under Dr. Holmgren's leadership, LanzaTech became the first
carbon capture and utilization technology company to go public and
demonstrated that its commercial-scale biorecycling approach can
play a pivotal role in keeping our planet livable for the long
term. To date, LanzaTech has prevented more than 330,000 tonnes of
carbon from entering the atmosphere across six commercial plants.
With the recent start-up of two new plants using LanzaTech’s
process, its biorecycling technology now has the capacity to abate
500,000 tonnes of CO2 per year.
“In creating their inaugural Climate 100 list, TIME is
prioritizing a key issue of our generation. I’m honored to be
recognized among a diverse group of contributors, demonstrating
that a basket of solutions is needed to effect gigaton-scale change
for our climate,” said Dr. Jennifer Holmgren, Chief Executive
Officer of LanzaTech. “We need carbon to live, but we can live with
carbon differently. I hope more industrial emitters, brands,
governments, and consumers join us in accelerating the shift toward
a circular carbon economy.”
Prior to joining LanzaTech, Dr. Holmgren was the founding VP and
General Manager of the Renewable Energy and Chemicals business unit
at UOP LLC, a Honeywell Company, where she was one of the key
drivers of UOP’s leadership in aviation biofuels. Dr. Holmgren is
the author or co-author of 50 US patents and more than 30
scientific publications.
She currently serves in a number of advisory roles, including
the Board of Directors of the U.S.-India Strategic Partnership
Forum (USISPF), the Advisory Council for the Andlinger Center for
Energy and the Environment at Princeton University, and the
Advisory Council for the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory
(PNNL). Dr. Holmgren holds a B.Sc. degree from Harvey Mudd College,
a Ph.D. from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, and an
MBA from the University of Chicago and is a member of the National
Academy of Engineering (NAE).
To assemble the list, TIME's editors and reporters fielded
nominations and recommendations from industry leaders and partner
organizations like Global Optimism and The B Team, as well as
TIMECO2’s Advisory Council, then worked to assess the candidates on
a variety of factors, including recency of action, measurable
results, and influence.
The full list is now live on Time.com and will appear in the
December 5, 2023, issue, available on newsstands on Friday,
November 24th, and now at time.com/time100-climate. Follow @TIME
