GEODIS, in partnership with Prologis, has activated a 619-kilowatt direct current (kWDC) rooftop solar installation at Prologis Park Grande, Building 3, located in the Tepotzotlรกn Estate of Mexico. This new solar array is expected to generate approximately 892 megawatt-hours of low-carbon energy annually, marking a significant step in GEODIS’ ongoing commitment to advancing sustainable logistics practices worldwide.
Situated in one of Mexicoโs key industrial hubs, the rooftop solar system represents a strategic effort to lower greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, boost the use of renewable energy, and improve energy resilience at the facility level. This initiative aligns with GEODIS’ ambitious climate action plan, which has been validated by the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi). The company aims to reduce Scope 1 and 2 emissionsโthose from its fleets and buildingsโby 42%, and to cut Scope 3 emissionsโrelated to subcontracted container shipping, road, and rail operationsโby 25% compared to 2022 levels.
Jessica Himmelreich, Vice President, Head of Sustainability, Occupational Safety and Health, and Dangerous Goods, GEODIS in Americas, said, “This solar installation is more than just a technological upgradeโit’s a reflection of our ongoing commitment to innovation, responsibility and sustainability. By investing in renewable energy at our facilities, we are advancing both our corporate climate goals and those of our customers.โ
“Low-carbon, reliable energy is a critical resource for our customers. As a leader in low-carbon energy generation, we’re proud to collaborate with GEODIS to support sustainable logistics operations in Mexico and beyond,โ commented John Hoekstra, Head of Enterprise Sustainability and Europe and LATAM Energy, Prologis.
The solar installation directly contributes to these goals by addressing Scope 2 emissions from purchased electricity. In addition to supporting operational decarbonization, it strengthens GEODISโ progress toward sustainable building certifications and scalable emissions reduction strategies. This project also supports Prologisโ broader ambition to deploy 1 gigawatt of solar energy, supplemented by battery storage, across its global property portfolio by 2025.
