GEODIS, in partnership with Prologis, has launched a 619-kilowatt (kWDC) rooftop solar system at Prologis Park Grande, Building 3, located in Tepotzotlán Estate of Mexico. This installation is projected to produce approximately 892 megawatt-hours of low-carbon energy annually—a key milestone in GEODIS’ global journey toward more sustainable logistics solutions.

“This solar installation is more than just a technological upgrade—it’s a reflection of our ongoing commitment to innovation, responsibility and sustainability,” said Jessica Himmelreich, Vice President, Head of Sustainability, Occupational Safety and Health, and Dangerous Goods, GEODIS in Americas. “By investing in renewable energy at our facilities, we are advancing both our corporate climate goals and those of our customers.”

Situated within one of Mexico’s most dynamic industrial hubs, the project underscores GEODIS’ commitment to lowering greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, expanding renewable energy use, and strengthening energy resilience. It directly contributes to GEODIS’ climate goals, which are aligned with the Science Based Targets Initiative (SBTi), including a 42% reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions from fleets and buildings, and a 25% reduction in the carbon intensity of Scope 3 subcontracted transport operations, compared to 2022 levels. The installation also supports sustainable building certifications and delivers scalable GHG emissions reductions.

“Low-carbon, reliable energy is a critical resource for our customers,” said John Hoekstra, Head of Enterprise Sustainability and Europe and LATAM Energy, Prologis. “As a leader in low-carbon energy generation, we’re proud to collaborate with GEODIS to support sustainable logistics operations in Mexico and beyond.”

Strategic Fit and Long-Term Vision
This project is the latest example of GEODIS and Prologis’ ongoing collaboration. The two companies have worked together on several sustainability initiatives in North America, focusing on energy efficiency, renewable energy integration and workforce development, to reinforce their commitments to environmental stewardship and community engagement. So far in 2025, GEODIS and Prologis have completed three warehouse solar installations, with five additional planned for the remainder of the year. GEODIS’ work with Prologis supports its broader sustainability strategy, which includes transitioning to sustainably certified warehouses (e.g., BREEAM and LEED), upgrading energy efficiency across its network and delivering lower-carbon lanes for sustainability-focused customers.

In a market where electricity costs and reliability are concerns, the installation will help stabilize energy costs and mitigate exposure to utility rate hikes. The system is designed with future scalability in mind, offering potential for battery storage and microgrid integration.

Leading the Way in Sustainable Logistics
As a global logistics company serving customers across a wide array of verticals—including retail, tech, pharma and automotive—that prioritize sustainability, GEODIS is delivering actionable, measurable solutions that reinforce trust, transparency and environmental leadership.

“This solar project is a tangible expression of our commitment to sustainability, innovation and leadership in the logistics sector,” said Himmelreich. “It also marks a significant step toward achieving our 2027 Ambition strategic plan and sustainability goals, reflecting our dedication to reducing our environmental footprint and promoting renewable energy solutions. By harnessing solar power, we are reinforcing our role as a responsible and forward-thinking industry leader.”
