Sysco Adopts Solar in Pursuit of 2025 Goals

In 2018, we announced that we will be reducing our carbon footprint by sourcing 20% of electricity from renewable sources and powering 20% of the tractor fleet with alternative fuels within seven years. How are we accomplishing this?

As part of this initiative, we installed 3 photovoltaic (PV) solar systems in Fiscal Year 2019, at SYGMA Lancaster, Sysco Ventura and Sysco Sacramento, which total 2.7 megawatts (MW) and reduces our carbon emissions from electricity 5,111,368 lbs annually— the equivalent of removing 490 cars from the road, saving 261,094 gallons of fuel and generating enough energy to power 530 homes, or planting 59,634 trees annually.
