What GreenTree Global does

GreenTree Global (legal entity: GreenTree Building Energy (P) Ltd.) is an India-based sustainability services firm founded in 2009, headquartered in Noida with regional offices in Kolkata, Navi Mumbai, and Dhaka, Bangladesh. The company delivers four integrated service lines: Integrated Green Building Design Services (certification advisory under IGBC, GRIHA, LEED, EDGE, WELL, and TRUE rating systems); Energy Efficiency and Climate Change Advisory Services (Net Zero design, EV charging infrastructure, energy storage, ESG reporting); Smart Metering and IoT Solutions (dual-source prepaid meters, IoT retrofit modules, and a mobile application for residential, telecom, and infrastructure customers); and Skill Development through GT Academy, including the BEE-designated EA/EM Refresher Course Phase IV.

The firm is empanelled with India's Bureau of Energy Efficiency as a Net Zero Design consultant and ESCO, holds IGBC Accredited Professional and GRIHA Evaluator credentials, and is actively executing Energy Conservation Building Code (ECBC 2017) rollouts with six state governments (Assam, Haryana, Tamil Nadu, Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, West Bengal).

Core technology stack combines measurement and verification (M&V) methodologies, low-cost IoT modules that retrofit existing smart meters, automated tariff management, and the EVahanam App for EV charging analytics.
