Heineken N.V. (HEINY) said Wednesday that it now receives 15% of
its electric and thermal energy from renewables as it works toward
70% renewable power by 2030.
The company, the largest beer brewer in Europe, said it has seen
a 47% decrease in carbon emissions over the last decade, and met
its 2020 C02 targets in 2017.
Heineken started 13 renewable projects last year, the company
said.
The brewer said it has also cut its water use by 32% since 2008,
meeting its 2020 water targets last year, and plans to announce its
2030 water-conservation targets later this year.
