General Mills has announced its goal to source 100 percent renewable electricity globally by 2030 as part of the RE100 global corporate initiative. Among the steps GM has taken so far to reach its goal are: investing in renewable energy efforts, such as two large-scale wind farms that will produce renewable energy credits, a 1.6-megawatt generator fueled by the anaerobic biodigester at its Murfreesboro, Tennessee plant, and a 195-kilowatt capacity biogas regeneration plant at its Arras, France Häagen-Dazs production facility.
