Green Power
At FedEx, green power starts with energy conservation at our facilities, offices and retail locations.
We continue looking for ways to conserve energy in our facilities. For instance, we use:
- Electric energy to keep our lights on, run our package sorting systems, run our copying and printing equipment, and cool and heat our facilities.
- Natural gas and fuel oil to heat our facilities.
FedEx Freight has developed a custom-facility lighting solution that reduces energy consumption by up to 93 percent. These progressive lighting solutions have been installed at 114 service centers throughout the United States. As an Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Energy Star partner, FedEx Freight team members have also changed over 11,000 traditional bulbs for energy-efficient compact fluorescent (CFL) bulbs and prevented approximately 4,973,000 lbs of GHG emissions since beginning the Energy Star campaign. FedEx Office launched a company-wide conservation program called “Be a Watt Watcher.” A similar awareness campaign was launched across the entire FedEx network.
