We have exciting news! We have collaborated with Walmart on a new program that will provide increased access to renewable energy for Walmart’s U.S.-based suppliers, enabling them to lead on climate action.
The groundbreaking initiative, called the Gigaton PPA (GPPA) Program, is designed to educate Walmart suppliers about renewable energy purchases and accelerate renewable energy adoption by participating suppliers through aggregate power purchase agreements (PPAs).
The program directly supports Walmart’s Project Gigaton, which aims to avoid one gigaton (one billion metric tons) of carbon dioxide from Walmart’s global value chain by 2030.
Our team will be running the GPPA Program utilizing NEO Network™, a global collaboration platform and community of more than 300 corporate renewable energy purchasers and solution providers. We have already begun engaging with participating Walmart suppliers, and we will be facilitating a multi-phase education and project selection process to advance supplier progress towards the execution of aggregated renewable energy purchases.
If you are a Walmart supplier, we invite you to learn more and register at gigatonppa.com.
Not a Walmart supplier? We would love to hear more about your supply-chain needs. Let us know your thoughts on the GPPA program model here.
