Eaton Corp. said Thursday that it is on track to meet its 2030 sustainability goals.

The company said it is ahead or on pace to meet many of its targets, including greenhouse gas reduction.

The company said it has reduced GHG emissions 16% since 2018, keeping it on track to meet approved science-based targets and in line with limiting global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius.

Eaton said sustainable solutions that enable electrification, energy transition, electric grid resilience, increase efficiency in ground and air transportation and improve air quality represented 65% of the company's net sales in 2021. The company said it has invested $528 million in research and development for sustainable solutions since 2020.

The company has also certified that 65% of manufacturing sites have zero waste to landfill, with a goal to certify 100% by 2030.
