  • The report analyzes renewable energy adoption among the world's largest corporations, finding that 59% of the Fortune 100 and 63% of the Global 100 have set greenhouse gas (GHG) or renewable energy targets. Companies are driven by cost reduction, risk hedging, and consumer demand, utilizing a mix of Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs), Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs), and on-site investments. Key barriers include the need for cost parity with fossil fuels, internal competition for capital, and inconsistent government policies. The report recommends that corporations set time-bound targets and that policymakers extend incentives like the U.S. Production Tax Credit (PTC) and authorize third-party PPAs to accelerate the transition.
