We celebrate Earth Day 2023 and demonstrate our commitment to a circular economy.

When I became Executive Sponsor of the ESG program at Maxeon, my vision was for the Company to be an industry leader in sustainability. This was an audacious goal to set, but an important one given Maxeon’s mission of Powering Positive Change.

The building and energy sectors have the most potential for significantly reducing greenhouse gas emissions and tackling climate change. More so, they have a responsibility to act given that, globally, CO2 emissions from the building sector are the highest ever recorded.

The EU's solar growth is surging, with rooftop panels poised to supply 25% of electricity, while Maxeon advances sustainability and decarbonization worldwide.

Our purpose of Powering Positive Change governs our approach to sustainability and our industry-first green credentials for our panels and LEED-certified facilities are a testament to our commitment.

Choosing to go solar is one of the most environmentally responsible decisions you can make. New study shows Maxeon panels outperform other technologies on energy payback time.

The transition toward clean energy sources is pivotal in mitigating impacts of climate change, and major components of that transition include solar panels. Therefore, the demand for solar energy to power homes, businesses, and public spaces is growing.

How can we ensure that the energy-intensive process of manufacturing solar panels is as clean as possible?

Maxeon has always taken a strong position on protecting human rights and confirms that all of its suppliers are in compliance with relevant laws and industry best practices.

At Maxeon, 2020 was a particularly pivotal year as the company officially became independent from SunPower Corporation in August.

In its first full quarter, Maxeon Solar Technologies became a signatory to the world’s largest corporate sustainability initiative.
