"ClimeCo represents energy-intensive industries that have unique decarbonization challenges," says William Flederbach, President and CEO of ClimeCo. "We are building our team and leveraging a proven track record of thirteen years to meet our customer's needs.

In 2022 and beyond, investing in low carbon technologies is paramount to achieving our aggressive global climate goals, and I couldn't be more excited to have Erika leading this practice."

Schiller will build on ClimeCo's strengths in industrial greenhouse gas (GHG) management, nature-based solutions, such as reforestation and composting, and plastics mitigation. Additionally, she'll look to expand in other industrial spaces like low-carbon cement, renewable natural gas, and carbon capture use and storage (CCUS).

"ClimeCo was compelling to me because of their market-based approach to tackle environmental challenges," says Schiller. "I see a strong business case for measuring and delivering GHG reductions, and other benefits for a world focused on how to achieve net-zero this century. ClimeCo is poised for growth, and I'm excited to contribute my expertise to their strong foundation."

Before joining ClimeCo, Schiller worked in the low-carbon energy industry for ten years, spanning energy storage to renewable fuels and carbon capture use & storage with Chevron. She helped Chevron launch its renewable natural gas business, forming two joint ventures in dairy RNG production. She then moved to their corporate strategy and sustainability team, where she led the commercial strategy for a new CCUS global business line and supported the start-up of their New Energies business unit.

Schiller earned her Master of Business Administration from Georgetown University, McDonough School of Business, and her Bachelor of Science from Vanderbilt University.
