Reduce carbon emissions to tackle climate change
We aim to reach net zero by 2050.
Nestlé is committed to achieving Net Zero carbon emissions by 2050 to help reduce global warming. To get there, we take a whole system approach, addressing emissions across our entire value chain, along with switching to 100% renewable energy at our factories and distribution centers.
Our factories use environmentally friendly technologies
Nestlé fosters sustainability through every process of production and transportation by using environmentally friendly technologies. All Nestlé's factories and distribution centers in Thailand use 100% renewable energy in their operations.
Pilot project of 100% electric-powered trucks to reduce carbon emissions
Nestlé Thailand has introduced 100% electric-powered trucks for transporting its quality products. The pilot program began with two trucks in 2023, running routes between the manufacturing plants, distribution centers, and partner stores. This is expected to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by approximately 230 tons per year. The use of 100% electric-powered trucks will support the strategy to drive positive change for our planet, particularly in reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the production and transportation processes. This aligns with Nestlé’s goal to achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050.
Moving towards 100% renewable energy production
Nestlé Ice Cream business group has launched a pilot project to produce ice cream using 100% renewable energy under a new initiative with EGAT in 2023. This makes it the first company in the Fast-Moving Consumer Goods (FMCG) industry in Thailand to adopt a source-specific renewable energy purchasing model (Utility Green Tariff). By switching to clean energy, the company aims to reduce carbon dioxide emissions and drive toward its goal of achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050.
