General Motors has become the first US automaker to power 100% of its domestic operations with renewable energy. (ESG Dive)
GM confirmed it reached its 100% US renewable target last year, matching every kWh used across its domestic sites and facilities. Globally, the company matched 70% of its electricity consumption with renewables in 2025—nearly 2Xing its 2023 performance.
The energy mix: 40% comes from utility green-power programs, 37% from VPPAs, and 14% from RECs. GM expects to phase out RECs as long-term projects, like NorthStar Clean Energy’s 180-MW solar farm in AK, come online.
