Meta’ s 2025 Sustainability Report shows how clean energy use ties to supply chain reform, with emissions cuts across both operations and the value chain

Meta’ s 2025 Sustainability Report sets out clear progress on renewable energy and the decarbonisation of its supply chains. Since 2020, the company has matched 100 % of its electricity use with clean energy, adding more than 15 gigawatts of wind and solar capacity to grids around the world. This makes Meta one of the largest corporate buyers of renewable electricity globally.

The company uses long-term power purchase agreements( PPAs) to help bring new renewable projects online. These agreements support solar in Ireland, floating solar in Singapore and geothermal energy in the US. Energy storage investments back up these projects and help strengthen the reliability of local grids.
Meta’ s clean energy use has a clear effect on its emissions. In 2024, the company cut six million tonnes of CO2 equivalent from its operational footprint and a further 1.4 million tonnes from its value chain.
Scope 3 emissions remain the most challenging part of the company’ s environmental impact. To address this, Meta runs a Net Zero Supplier
Engagement Program, encouraging suppliers to adopt science-based targets for emissions reduction.
The report links emissions reduction directly to strategic energy procurement. By using its scale to back renewable infrastructure, Meta enables cleaner grids while pushing lower emissions through its operations and supply chain. The goal is to reach net-zero emissions across the entire value chain by 2030.

“Our sustainability strategy is centred around climate, water, supply chain responsibility and biodiversity”
