Synaptics Incorporated announced a decision to power its headquarters with 100% renewable energy through TotalGreen, a program available through San Jose Clean Energy (SJCE).
SJCE’s TotalGreen electric service sources renewable, emission-free energy from solar generation.
“We are thrilled to be able to power our San José facility with 100% renewable energy,” said Michael Hurlston, president and CEO of Synaptics. “We recognize the importance of protecting the environment for future generations and are always looking for ways to reduce our carbon footprint. TotalGreen helps us achieve that goal.”
The partnership with SJCE is part of Synaptics’ greater sustainability initiative.
The company is committed to increasing the use of renewable energy to 50% across its global facilities by 2022. In addition, Synaptics recently upgraded its HVAC systems, increased temperature in their datacenters, and converted to LED lighting to reduce building energy consumption.
