RE 100 (Renewable 100 Percent) is the global corporate renewable energy initiative of influential businesses committed to 100% renewable electricity, working to massively increase demand for renewable energy. Corporations with membership in RE100 aim for a zero-emissions economy. To participate, members must publicly commit to match 100 percent of the electricity consumed in their global operations with a like amount of renewable electricity produced from solar, wind, water, geothermal or biomass. To achieve zero carbon electricity grids, companies need to be able to source 100% renewable electricity at reasonable cost.
