Member company, Yanmar America, has taken a major step toward its sustainability goals with the installation of 914 high-efficiency solar panels at its headquarters in Adairsville, GA. The company reported that the solar array became fully operational in late March, following successful testing by Georgia Power. This solar array will reduce the facility’s reliance on non-renewable power sources and lower the company’s carbon footprint in line with the Yanmar Green Challenge 2050 goals.

“This solar investment is our first step toward reducing our carbon footprint,” said Yanmar America President, Jeff Albright. “Our commitment to the community and our employees is to be good stewards of the environment and leaders in achieving a zero-carbon footprint.”

Yanmar Green Challenge 2050: A Vision for Sustainability Sustainability has always been a cornerstone of Yanmar’s mission. For over a century, the company has developed innovative technologies to maximize efficiency while minimizing waste. This commitment extends beyond individual products and services to encompass Yanmar’s broader vision for a sustainable future. To meet the challenges of becoming an ecological footprint-free, GHG-free corporation based on recycled resources, Yanmar has launched the Green Challenge 2050.

This sustainability strategy revolves around 3 main objectives:

• Achieving zero GHG emissions from corporate operations
• Creating zero environmental impact by circulating resources
• Supporting customers in reducing their GHG emissions and enhancing resource circulation

These goals drive Yanmar’s investments in advanced technologies, global collaboration, and sustainable transformation across its operations and products. Each initiative under the Green Challenge 2050 targets specific sustainability challenges to ensure Yanmar’s continued leadership in the global push for decarbonization.
