Volkswagen’s Main Goal Is to Use Renewable Energy to Reduce and Perhaps Even Neutralize Pollution Emissions by 2030 in Its Factories in Brazil

The first parts center of Volkswagen that will adopt the standards of using 100% renewable energy is located in SP; the market leader’s parts center has been operating since June of this year using renewable energy.

Much more than just reducing toxicity levels with its products, Volkswagen is also saving about 6% on its electricity bill, this only during the short time it has been using renewable energy.

The automaker aims to further reduce its expenses regarding electricity; Volkswagen intends to cut 40% of its costs over a period of 5 years.

The Automaker Expects Possible Investments in the Renewable Energy Sector

Although many see it merely as a purchase and adaptation of the automaker to a renewable policy, the truth is that VW is also considering investing in energy efficiency, with a goal of having more than 700 initiatives for using renewable energy solely in Brazil.

The planning director stated that he will maintain his focus on more traditional business lines and will not invest in projects without clear financial prospects. “It is a decarbonization goal within a timeline; it does not mean that we will enter any project with unclear results. We continue to operate on all fronts.”
