Hormel Foods Corp., a Fortune 500 global-branded food company known for its corporate citizenship, was, for the first time, included on the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s list of the 100 largest green power users from the Green Power Partnership (GPP). In addition, the company ranked No. 20 on EPA’s list of Green Power Partners that are part of the Fortune 500.
Hormel Foods joined the EPA’s Green Power Partnership in 2022 and is using nearly 938 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) of green power annually, representing 100% of the overall operation’s total power needs. The company’s choice to use green power helps advance the voluntary market for green power, as well as the development of those sources.
