Donaldson joined Enbridge and other partners in Callahan County, Texas, to celebrate the completion of Phase One of the Sequoia Solar project, a major milestone in scaling renewable energy infrastructure. The initial phase began delivering electricity in early 2026, and the operational milestone was recognized at the ribbon-cutting event.
Through a Virtual Power Purchase Agreement (VPPA), Donaldson has secured access to renewable electricity equivalent to more than 90% of its U.S. electricity usage, making this our largest renewable energy investment to date. Phase One of the project delivers about 400 MW of solar capacity, with Phase Two expected to bring total capacity to 815 MW—positioning Sequoia as one of the largest solar projects in North America. Our VPPA for the Sequoia Solar project is part of a multi-partner collaboration led by Enbridge, with corporate participants. This project is the cornerstone of Donaldson’s decarbonization strategy and enables us to make significant progress toward our fiscal year 2030 GHG emissions reduction goal. It reflects our broader approach of combining energy efficiency, on-site solar, and renewable energy procurement to achieve our ambition of an absolute reduction in Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 42% relative to a fiscal year 2021 baseline. Overall, Sequoia Solar represents a meaningful step forward in translating our sustainability ambitions into tangible impact.
“This is our largest renewable energy investment to date.”
