General Motors said today it plans to generate or source all electricity with renewable power for its 350 operations in 59 countries with wind, sun and/or landfill gas by 2050. This new renewable power goal, along with the pursuit of electrified vehicles and efficient manufacturing, is part of the company’s overall approach to strengthening its business and addressing climate change. It builds on GM previous commitment of using 125 megawatts of renewable power by 2020.

“This pursuit of renewable power benefits our customers and communities through cleaner air while strengthening our business through lower and more stable energy costs,” said GM Chairman and CEO Mary Barra. Photo courtesy of and copyright GM – all rights reserved
