Chart Industries emphasizes oversight of its sustainability and climate risk strategy, noting that “Transparency, accountability and ethics are the cornerstones of our corporate governance structure” and that “Oversight of Chart’s climate change strategy and risk management efforts resides with the Board of Directors and executive leadership.” However, the company does not disclose any dedicated policy or process for governing its lobbying activities, nor does it identify an individual or committee responsible for ensuring that direct or indirect lobbying aligns with its climate goals. We found no evidence of procedures for reviewing or managing trade association engagement, nor any mention of board or executive-level oversight specific to political advocacy.

Chart Industries provides virtually no transparency around its climate-related lobbying. It references the U.S. Inflation Reduction Act only to note that the company’s technologies could benefit from it, without indicating that it tried to influence that law or any other climate policy. The company says it “interact[s] with professional and trade groups, legislative bodies, regulatory agencies, and citizens’ organizations,” but gives no details on what form this interaction takes, which government bodies or officials were approached, or whether any formal lobbying tools—such as meetings, letters, or submissions—were employed. Likewise, it does not identify any policy changes, provisions, or outcomes it seeks to advance or oppose. In short, no specific climate policies, lobbying mechanisms, or desired legislative outcomes are disclosed.
