Promega Achieves 100% Renewable Electricity Across Global Operations
28.7.2026 13:00:00 CEST | Business Wire | Press Release
Promega Corporation today released its 2026 Corporate Responsibility Report, detailing significant environmental and social progress across its global operations. The report marks three milestones for the company: achievement of 100% renewable electricity across all global operations, the completion of a comprehensive value chain emissions inventory and validation of near-term emissions reduction targets by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi).
“Our 100% renewable electricity reflects years of deliberate investment, from solar arrays on the Madison campus to renewable partnerships in the communities where we operate,” says Corey Meek, Promega Global Sustainability Manager. “Looking forward, we will continue working to strategically reduce the environmental impact of our global business.”
Promega recently completed its first comprehensive greenhouse gas inventory across its global operations and value chain. Scope 3 emissions, which occur outside direct operations, represent about 76% of the company’s total footprint, highlighting the importance of supplier engagement to meet long-term climate goals. This data informed the science-based emissions reduction targets that were validated by SBTi in April 2026.
