Industry-Leading PositionGlobally recognized for renewable energy commitment
No. 1 automotive solar user in U.S. /No. 13 of top 20
solar-powered companies in U.S.
62MW: solar, landfill gas and biomass used today
30MW: current solar use with public
commitment to double by 2015
125MW: renewable energy
commitment by 2020
High exposure; efforts heavily reported
by media and trade organizations
GM has set an example inrenewable energy within its
industry and beyond.
Rhone Resch, Solar Energy
Industries Association
Three of our plants in the
U.S. produce anywhere
from 17 to 25 percent of
their total energy needs
from landfill methane gas
[] And two out of the five
largest solar arrays in the
world are General Motors.
Dan Akerson, Fortune
We understand the
environmental and business
benefits of using renewable
energy and we look forward
to building on it with our
new commitments. Mike

Reputational Benefits
Renewable energy fits under a corporate
environmental pillar of energy efficiency
Sustainability report highlights solar as
one of five ways were leading
NGOs like WWF and Union of Concerned
Scientists support our efforts Continued engagement and forward
movement builds corporate reputation,
leading to topline growth
Seeing strengthened reputation scores
from communicating efforts, from GRIand CDP to media-based green rankings
A lot of people I know are surprised
that I work for a car company but I
dont work on cars. When I tell them
about all of the environmentally
responsible things were doing at GM, I
know Im changing peoples opinions
about our company.Anthony Davis

Alignment with National Policy & Trends
Clean energy 1 of 3 steps in
Obamas Secure Americas
Energy Future plan
U.S. doubled renewable energy
sources since 2008
U.S. national policy consistent
with other countries
Called on Obama
administration for nationalenergy policy
First automaker to sign Ceres
BICEP Climate Declaration
United States
General Motors
The carmaker joins companies suchas Adidas Group and Intel that have
signed the declaration; the companies
want policymakers to address climate
change through ideas such as
encouraging use of clean energy and
limiting carbon emissions.Melissa
