Epson Leads with Clean Energy and Greener Logistics
Global technology company Epson has strengthened its commitment to environmental innovation with the second phase of its “Our Actions” campaign. The initiative highlights real progress in sustainability, including Epson’s full transition to 100% renewable electricity and greener logistics.
In 2023, Epson became the first company in Japan’s manufacturing sector to power all global Group sites entirely with renewable energy.
This milestone supports the company’s goal of becoming carbon negative and resource-free by 2050. The transition spans production facilities, offices, and research centres worldwide, reflecting Epson’s mission to cut emissions across its entire value chain.
Driving Sustainable Logistics Innovation
Beyond energy use, Epson is reshaping its logistics operations to lower emissions. For example, it has switched to high-cube containers, boosting loading capacity by 14.3% and reducing shipment frequency.
The company has also piloted alternative-fuel shipping, transporting 100 containers on vessels powered by biodiesel and green methanol, cutting emissions by about 220 tonnes.

Additionally, Epson opened a new east-coast shipping route to North America, reducing overland transit emissions by nearly 320 tonnes. In Türkiye, the company launched a solar-powered warehouse featuring sustainable packaging and freight innovations.
“At Epson, we do not believe in sustainability as a slogan. We see it as a daily responsibility,” said Mukesh Bector, Epson’s Regional Head for East and West Africa.
“Our transition to renewable electricity and decarbonisation efforts in logistics are examples of acting on that responsibility. We are proud to share our progress and reaffirm our vision for a more sustainable, equitable future.”
Through its “Our Actions” campaign, Epson continues to embed environmental responsibility into every aspect of its business. By focusing on efficient, compact, and precise innovation, the company is setting benchmarks for industries and communities to transition toward a low-carbon future.
