[56]carport [56]  In May 2005 GE announced the launch of a program called "Ecomagination," intended, in the words of CEO Jeff Immelt "to develop tomorrow's solutions such as solar energy, hybrid locomotives, fuel cells, lower-emission aircraft engines, lighter and stronger durable materials, efficient lighting, and water purification technology”. [57] The announcement prompted an op-ed piece in The New York Times to observe that, "while General Electric's increased emphasis on clean technology will probably result in improved products and benefit its bottom line, Mr. Immelt's credibility as a spokesman on national environmental policy is fatally flawed because of his company's intransigence in cleaning up its own toxic legacy." [58] [57]clean technology [58]  GE has said that it will invest $1.4 billion in clean technology research and development in 2008 as part of its Ecomagination initiative. As of October 2008, the scheme had resulted in 70 green products being brought to market, ranging from halogen lamps to biogas engines. In 2007, GE raised the annual revenue target for its Ecomagination initiative from $20 billion in 2010 to $25 billion following positive market response to its new product lines. [59] In 2010, GE continued to raise its investment by adding $10 billion into Ecomagination over the next five years.

Merely having regulations in place is not enough–companies must devote significant attention and resources to ensuring that such rules are truly embedded in their actions every day.  GE infuses compliance and governance into every aspect of its business. On a companywide level, the Regulatory Excellence initiative has mandated a full reexamination of GE’s compliance systems and processes to assure that risks are anticipated and managed effectively. Processes are in place for executive accountability and compliance training, and an open reporting environment and acquisition framework set the tone for a culture of integrity.
