Booster Commitment to ESG & Sustainability
At a time when the urgent desire to transition to a sustainable energy future is far outpacing the availability of the necessary infrastructure, Booster provides a critical solution for the mobility and transportation sectors. We are proud of what we do but that alone isn’t enough.
Sustainability drives everything we do here at Booster, and is reflected in our commitment to the environment, our people and the governance of our company.
Sustainability is a journey, not a destination.
“It’s not enough to only look externally; we must also examine our own business practices and operations to ensure we are making the strongest commitment to the environment, our people and the governance of our company. Taking a more holistic approach to sustainability will only deliver greater benefits for our employees, customers and communities.”
- Frank Mycroft, CEO and Co-Founder
With sustainability as the backbone behind Booster’s mission, strategy and service offerings, the company’s activities reflect its priorities in addressing a range of business practices, including safety, carbon emissions, diversity, equity and inclusion, and accountability. As part of its commitments, Booster is actively working to increase its positive impacts across the economic, social and environmental dimensions of the energy landscape.

Environmental
As a company focused on bringing sustainable, decarbonized solutions to the transportation sector’s energy transition, environmental stewardship naturally sits at the heart of our business model. But we recognize that a successful sustainability mission radiates outwardly, and we take seriously our responsibility to minimize our own energy, water, waste and environmental impacts, both in our daily operations and throughout our value chain. At our core, we want to make the world a better, cleaner, more convenient place for all. We recognize this begins with securing the health of our planet and our generations to come.
