One good day
becomes
another
with renewable energy

Samsung’s DS Division is implemented extensive renewable energy facilities at each site in Korea,
installing solar power plants in parking lots, on rooftops and construction sites.
This includes a 1.5-megawatt (MW) plant we set up in Giheung in 2019 and a 0.4MW plant in Pyeongtaek in 2020. Once installed, we can use the solar energy from these plants as electricity to run the sites.

By optimizing and implementing large-scale solar power installations and helping consumers buy electricity from renewable sources through green pricing, we help expand the world’s use of renewable energy.

Samsung Semiconductor USA Austin received the Excellence in Green Power Use from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in September 2019, which recognized us for our outstanding achievements in expanding the use of renewable energy. We increased the use of renewable energy from 3% to 100% by supporting green pricing and purchasing Renewable Energy Certificates (REC).

Then in 2019, we worked with large companies like Apple, eBay and Sprint to purchase 75MW of renewable energy from large wind farms, and we are following up with a 200MW renewable energy contract with other wind farms in 2021. In addition, we continue to focus on efforts to expand the actual use of renewable energy.
