Using renewable energy

From solar farms to wind parks, explore how we're harnessing clean energy to transform our global operations.

Sustainability

Starting with why

Climate change needs bold action, and that's why we're transforming how we use energy and power our business. By 2030, we're aiming to reduce our emissions by 47% and be carbon neutral for our own operations – and renewable energy is key to getting us there. That's why we have a target to achieve 50% renewable electricity by the end of 2025.

Where we are now

Our progress tells a compelling story of real change. At the end of 2025, 62% of our total electricity came from renewable sources. We achieved our 2025 renewable electricity target already in 2024 and exceeded it substantially in 2025. This contributed to the 38% reduction in direct carbon emissions since 2019. Across our facilities, our solar panels are now generating about 25,500 MWh of electricity every year - enough to avoid around 18,700 tons of CO₂ emissions annually. These aren't just numbers - they represent meaningful steps toward a more sustainable future. And we continue to expand our use of renewable energy.

Delivering excellence

Our commitment to renewable energy is backed by rigorous standards and external validation. All our factories have energy management systems, the majority certified to ISO5001. Our environmental and energy data are independently verified by Bureau Veritas. Our emissions reduction targets are science-based and in-line with JTG targets which are validated by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).

Looking ahead

We're not slowing down. We're exploring similar projects across our global operations to keep driving towards our emissions targets. Through these efforts, we're not just transforming our energy use – we're contributing to the UN Sustainable Development Goals and building a cleaner, more sustainable future for all.
