零食、食品及宠物护理产品供应商玛氏公司宣布达成重要可持续发展里程碑——其欧洲零食工厂已实现100%可再生能源供电。

电力。玛氏的投资举措包括降低能耗、转向可再生能源,并通过购买证书类
市场工具,将公司直接运营中剩余的电力与天然气需求覆盖为可再生电力和生物甲烷。

Mars Achieves 100% Renewable Energy in its European Snacking Factories
According to the company, the achievement was made following Mars’ first investment in a European windfarm in 2016, and the transitioning of all of its confectionary manufacturing sites across Europe to renewable electricity over the past decade. Mars’ investments have included reductions of energy and conversions to renewables, as well as purchases of certificate market-based instruments covering the remaining amount of electricity and natural gas used in the company’s direct operations with renewable electricity and biomethane.
