At NZDPU, our mission is to provide a trusted, central source of company-level climate data that is transparent and openly accessible to all. Our efforts started in 2022 when the Climate Data Steering Committee published recommendations for the development of a unified, global, open climate data repository. A proof of concept of the Net-Zero Data Public Utility was launched during the UN’s Climate Change Conference (COP28) and is publicly accessible at nzdpu.com.
Over the past 2 years, we have focused on building out the proof of concept incorporating historical data across a wide set of company emissions data. As we start to lay out the work for the next few years, we are working to significantly expand the sources of data as we grow the global coverage and access of the platform.

- Sit at the intersection between Product Management, Business Strategy, and Public Policy. This role will be responsible for developing Go-to-Market strategies and identifying partnership opportunities that aim to expand the uptake and global scale of Net Zero solutions.
