Johnson & Johnson Vision’s operations in Jacksonville, Florida, will be powered by solar energy by 2022, a move that is part of the company's effort to be more sustainable.
100% renewable
The company has signed a 10-year power purchase agreement with solar farm JEA, a community-owned utility, to cover its entire electricity consumption. Johnson & Johnson will purchase electricity from JEA’s ground-mounted solar farms starting in 2022. The move will allow the company to reach its goal of meeting all of its electricity needs with 100% renewables by 2025.
More broadly, J&J aims to reduce greenhouse emissions and reach carbon-neutral operations globally by the end of 2030. It has already made significant progress in this direction, according to reports.1
In 2019, the total amount of renewable energy projects made in the U.S. rose to 16GW, up from approximately 10GW in 2018.1 According to an analysis from Bloomberg NEF, a significant portion of the global increase in clean energy procurement was attributed to the U.S.2
