Infineon Technologies AG announced that all of its global operations are now powered by 100% green electricity—an important milestone on the company’s path to carbon neutrality by 2030. Infineon has also surpassed its 2025 interim target for Scope 1 and 2 emissions, achieving a reduction of more than 80% versus the 2019 base year, while doubling revenue over the same period. Earlier this year in May, the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) validated the company’s science-based targets.
“Infineon semiconductors help societies decarbonize while meeting the growing energy demands of modern life,” said Elke Reichart, Member of the Management Board of Infineon and Chief Digital and Sustainability Officer. “We at Infineon continue to decarbonize our own value creation. We are proud that all Infineon locations globally are now running on 100% green electricity.”
The transition builds on a multi-year program to cut CO2 emissions and improve resource efficiency in manufacturing. Infineon converted its European sites to 100% green electricity in 2021, followed by North America in 2022. Major manufacturing sites in Malaysia, Kulim and Melaka, transitioned in 2023. During 2024 and 2025, remaining production locations in China, Indonesia and Singapore completed the shift, alongside all Research, Development, Sales and Marketing sites worldwide.
Infineon’s achievement aligns with the RE100 standard, reflecting its commitment to long-term renewable sourcing. This year, the company signed long-term Power Purchase Agreements for wind and solar in Germany and Spain. On-site photovoltaic installations are being added in Kulim and Melaka, while facilities in Warstein, Regensburg, Villach, Wuxi and Singapore have been generating solar power for some time.
In parallel, Infineon is expanding silicon carbide (SiC) production in Dresden (Germany) and Kulim (Malaysia) to support the global build-out of sustainable power. Its semiconductor innovation underpins energy generation from solar and wind, grid stabilization and the efficient, reliable powering of Artificial Intelligence. To advance state-of-the-art sustainable manufacturing, the company is deploying the latest greenhouse gas abatement systems and highly efficient equipment in addition to sourcing renewable energy.
