Corporate Knights, which includes the business and society magazine Corporate Knights and a research division that produces rankings based on corporate sustainability performance, named Itron in their 15th annual list of the world's 100 most sustainable corporations. After an in-depth analysis of over 7,500 companies, Corporate Knights found that sustainable corporate performance is closely related to better returns for investors and increased corporate longevity.

Companies are ranked on a variety of metrics, including carbon productivity, percentage of women on boards and sustainability measures. Accounting for 50 percent of each company’s score, the “clean revenue” metric measures the percentage of revenue that is earned from products or services with environmental or social benefits. Itron’s technology connects people, devices and insights to better manage energy and water resources all around the world.

The list represents companies from 21 countries and various industries, including information technology, finance, heath care, and food and beverage. Earning a place on the world’s 100 most sustainable corporations list confirms that Itron’s commitment to creating a more resourceful world is making a difference across the globe.
