Mercedes-Benz has agreed on a sustainability partnership with FarasisEnergy (Ganzhou) Co Ltd to take a holistic approach along the entire value chain. The supplier network contributes a significant part of the value creation and is thus of vital importance for the decarbonization goals. A production site in Germany is currently being planned and will be carbon-neutral -neutral from the beginning.
The locations in the USA and China are then scheduled to follow. With DEKRA, an expert and testing organization has been assigned to additionally review the measures regarding the environmental standards. In the next step, the upstream materials supply chain all the way to the raw material extraction is to be examined.
The realization of the goal of climate neutrality is expanded to further suppliers and integrated into existing partnerships as a permanent criterion.
