Sustainability
Leading-edge silicon, without the footprint
The most advanced factories on earth should also be the cleanest. Our net-zero roadmap is engineered with the same discipline as our process nodes.
2040
Net-zero operations
Scope 1 & 2, validated by SBTi
92%
Water reclaimed
Every litre used 4.2 times before discharge
68%
Renewable electricity
100% target by 2032, RE100 member
−45%
PFAS emissions vs 2024
Abatement fitted on every etch chamber
Focus areas
Energy, water, materials
Three systems dominate a fab's environmental footprint. Each has an owner, a budget, and a target audited like a yield number.
Energy
A 400MW captive solar park powers GigaFab Chicago's daytime load, backed by 24/7 renewable PPAs in Dresden and Arizona. Every new fab is designed to LEED Gold or better.
Water
Closed-loop ultrapure water plants reclaim 92% of process water. Chicago II will be our first net-water-positive fab, returning more to the aquifer than it draws.
Materials
Chemical suppliers are audited against our zero-discharge standard, and 78% of process chemistries now have take-back or regeneration programs.
Net-zero roadmap
Dated commitments, not directions of travel
2028
100% renewable electricity at GigaFab Chicago; PFAS abatement on every etch chamber network-wide.
2030
Chicago II operates net-water-positive; absolute Scope 1 & 2 emissions down 55% from the 2024 baseline.
2032
100% renewable electricity across all five sites, met with 24/7 carbon-free matching.
2040
Net-zero Scope 1 & 2 operations, with residual abatement independently verified.
