GM Sustainable Initiatives
• Globally, GM matched 70% of its electricity usage with renewables — nearly double its 2023 level — thanks to new projects in Mexico and Brazil, and continues to pursue 100% worldwide.
• GM has reduced operational emissions (known in greenhouse gas accounting as scope 1 and 2) by 52% since 2018, meaning its energy transition is also advancing its vision of a zero-emissions future.
• The company’s domestic renewable energy investments have generated about $1.9 billion in GDP impact since 2015. Projects contracted through 2026 will add $333 million more.
• Projects GM has invested in also support an average of 1,500 construction jobs per year across states like Michigan, Texas, Ohio, Arkansas, and Illinois — and fund rural schools and emergency services through local taxes.
Clean Energy Business Effects
• Price stability: Long-term renewable contracts insulate GM from energy market volatility.
• Grid resilience: More clean energy on the grid means a more dependable system for everyone.
• Energy independence: Reduced reliance on foreign energy imports strengthens the local communities our facilities depend on.
GM U.S. Manufacturing
• Factory ZERO, Detroit: Supplied by DTE Energy’s clean-energy utility program, MIGreenPower. Builds Chevrolet Silverado EV, GMC Sierra EV, GMC HUMMER EV Pickup and SUV, and Cadillac Escalade IQ.
• Spring Hill Manufacturing, Tennessee: Supplied by the TVA Green Invest program. Builds Cadillac LYRIQ, VISTIQ, and XT5.
“Achieving GM’s renewable goal in the U.S., and making continued progress internationally, proves that decarbonizing its footprint and driving economic growth aren’t in conflict. GM is building the vehicles — and the energy systems — that will help us all enjoy an all-electric future,” said Garber.
