Background

Mastercard has publicly committed to advancing renewable energy adoption across its global operations as part of its broader climate and sustainability initiatives. The company has set science-based emissions reduction targets and continues to pursue strategies that support long-term decarbonization of its facilities.

To support these objectives, Mastercard implemented on-site distributed solar installations at select U.S. locations. The systems contribute directly to renewable electricity generation at the point of use, reducing reliance on grid-supplied power and supporting measurable progress toward corporate climate commitments.

On-site solar plays a strategic role in helping corporations stabilize long-term energy costs, reduce exposure to utility volatility, and demonstrate tangible environmental leadership.

Client: Mastercard

Location: O'Fallon, MO

Technology: Solar PV

Year: 2026

Supporting Corporate Climate Commitments

Mastercard has publicly committed to achieving net-zero emissions across its value chain by 2040, with science-based targets aligned with climate science and an ongoing expansion of renewable electricity sourcing across its operations.

On-site solar installations directly support these commitments by increasing renewable electricity generation at owned facilities, reducing Scope 2 emissions associated with purchased electricity, and providing visible infrastructure investment aligned with ESG priorities. Distributed solar complements broader renewable procurement strategies — such as renewable energy credits (RECs) and utility-scale power purchase agreements — by adding resiliency and localized generation capacity.

  • Location: O'Fallon, Missouri
  • Status: Under Construction — Anticipated Go-Live Q4 2026
  • Technology: Solar photovoltaic (PV) systems
  • Structure: On-site generation integrated with facility operations
  • Objective: Support corporate renewable energy and emissions reduction goals
  • Industry Application: Corporate office and operational facilities

On-Site Solar in Corporate Strategy

Estimated Emissions Reduction Impact

For large corporations with energy-intensive facilities, distributed generation offers several strategic advantages. On-site production provides long-term energy cost predictability, reduces dependency on grid fluctuations, delivers measurable facility-level carbon reductions, and demonstrates visible sustainability investments for employees, customers, and investors.

Projects such as Mastercard's illustrate how corporate facilities can serve as active participants in the energy transition rather than passive energy consumers.

Seaboard Energy Renewable Diesel Plant
BioStar Renewables partnered with Seaboard Energy to develop and construct a behind-the-meter solar array that is producing renewable electricity for the Seaboard’s renewable diesel plant in Hugoton, KS.
Hallmark Solar Project
Hallmark’s 979 kW solar installation produces over 1.3 million kWh annually, helping reduce electricity demand by roughly 10%. This project delivers meaningful sustainability benefits, including a reduction of 39 metric tons of CO2 each year and environmental savings equal to 4,430 gallons of gasoline.
Westtown School Solar Project
The system spans approximately 8 acres and consists of a 2.013 MW DC (1.5 MW AC) solar field designed to provide a substantial portion of the campus’s electricity needs. Once operational, the project is expected to generate more than 3 million kWh of clean energy annually, offsetting roughly 90% of Westtown School’s electricity usage.
