Virtual Power Purchase Agreement with Low Carbon helps take Ecolab’s global renewable electricity sourcing to 80%
In 2022, Ecolab and Low Carbon entered into an agreement to develop the Mörknässkogen windfarm, located on the west coast of Finland near the city of Vaasa. Now, the windfarm has reached full commercial operation, and its 30MW capacity will generate approximately 100GWh of electricity annually. That’s enough to power 30,000 homes and avoid 20,000 tonnes of CO2e per year.
“We believe that truly sustainable companies deliver on both their financial and environmental goals,” said Christophe Beck, Chairman and CEO, Ecolab. “By achieving this milestone in Europe, we’ll be sourcing the renewable energy needed to power our operations and as we electrify our vehicle fleet. These efforts support our continued growth and ability to serve customers, all while moving us closer to our 2030 Impact Goals and a 100% positive future.
This latest renewable power milestone builds on Ecolab’s progress in North America, where the company reached 100% renewable electricity in 2020 as a result of its 2018 investment in the Mesquite Star windfarm in Texas and 2015 investment in a local community solar garden project in Minnesota.
