Lightsource bp partners with H&M Group to further the growth of renewables<\/h2>\n

Global solar leader Lightsource bp has today announced that it has entered into a partnership with H&M Group, supporting the fashion retailer on its journey to having a climate positive value chain by 2040 and sourcing 100% renewable electricity in its operations no later than 2030.<\/p>\n

The partnership with H&M Group, a global retailer, enables the growth of the renewable sector and will have a positive impact on the local environment through Lightsource bp\u2019s approach to sustainable project development which involves working with environmental and planning experts to ensure its projects benefit local ecosystems and boost biodiversity.<\/p>\n

Speaking about the partnership, Zosia Riesner, Lightsource bp\u2019s Director of Power Markets, Europe, commented: \u201cGlobally, we are seeing more businesses prioritising renewable energy in their pledges to combat climate change and improve sustainability efforts. We are in a privileged position to be at the forefront of that shift, supporting businesses such as H&M Group to choose renewable energy, a decision which makes good business sense, as well as benefits the environment.\u201d<\/p>\n

The sustainability goals of the two organisations are closely aligned, with Lightsource bp\u2019s commitment to transforming into a climate positive business as it continues to grow to 25GW of developed projects by 2025.<\/p>\n
