3 Phases Renewables, a leading provider of renewable energy solutions, announced today that it has become a Certified B Corporation. The prestigious B Corp designation is awarded to companies that use the power of business to solve social and environmental problems and meet transparency and accountability standards set forth by B Lab.
To become a Certified B Corporation, B Lab, the nonprofit that certifies and supports B Corporations, conducted a rigorous evaluation of 3 Phases Renewables and determined that its product and services offerings, as well as its operations met the comprehensive performance standards to qualify for the certification. As a Certified B Corporation, 3 Phases Renewables will now be legally required to consider the impact of its decisions on its employees, suppliers, community, consumers, and environment.
“Sustainability is at the core of 3 Phases Renewables,” said Lisa Mazur-White, who spearheaded the B Corp application for 3 Phases. “3 Phases Renewables’ mission is to help Fortune 500 companies, municipalities, and other electric power suppliers achieve their sustainability goals by providing them with up to 100% renewable energy, so becoming a B Corp is a natural extension of our core values.”
3 Phases Renewables joins over 2,000 Certified B Corps around the globe, including 95 in the State of California and 88 in the State of Oregon, in redefining success in business and using business as a force for good.
