GM Commits To 100% Renewable Energy By 2050.

General Motors has announced plans to generate or source all electrical power for its 350 operations in 59 countries with 100% renewable energy such as wind, sun and landfill gas by 2050.

“Establishing a 100% renewable energy goal helps us better serve society by reducing environmental impact,” said GM chairman and CEO Mary Barra. “This pursuit of renewable energy benefits our customers and communities through cleaner air while strengthening our business through lower and more stable energy costs.”

This new renewable energy goal, along with the pursuit of electrified vehicles and efficient manufacturing, is part of the company’s overall approach to strengthening its business, improving communities and addressing climate change.
