Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) has announced plans to generate more than 25% of its UK electricity from new onsite and near-site renewable energy projects.
The initiative is part of JLR’s broader global renewable strategy, targeting an increase in self-generated energy to 36.4% of its global consumption by 2030.
Solar installations, including rooftop and ground-mounted panels, as well as solar carports for electric car charging, will boost self-generated energy capacity from solar by 16%.
The first three projects are scheduled for completion by the end of 2026, with planning already secured for an 18.2MW ground-mounted solar array at JLR’s headquarters in Gaydon.
