Tesla has issued its 2022 Impact Report. Join us as we delve into the details of Tesla’s dedication to sustainability, examining how the company is transforming the automotive industry and spearheading the movement towards a more environmentally conscious future.
Master Plan
The global energy landscape is currently dominated by fossil fuels, accounting for a staggering 80% of the world’s energy supply. However, the repercussions are dire – escalating global temperatures, heightened CO2 levels, and a grim toll on public health. In this paradigm, Tesla emerges as a beacon of change, offering a compelling vision for a cleaner and more efficient energy future. Contrary to common belief, transitioning to a sustainable energy does not necessitate an increase in energy consumption. In fact, a sustainable energy economy is both cleaner and more efficient, demanding only half the primary energy of its fossil fuel counterpart. Tesla’s blueprint for a sustainable energy shift outlines five crucial steps: Harnessing Renewable Power for the existing grid, Transitioning to Electric Vehicles, Adopting Heat Pumps, Incorporating High-Temperature Heat Delivery and Hydrogen, and Introducing Sustainable Fuel for Planes and Boats. This strategic plan aims to pave the way for 100% sustainability by 2050.
Environmental Impact
Focusing on tangible achievements, the 2022 Impact Report from Tesla reveals significant strides in the electric vehicle sector. With the delivery of 1.3 million EVs in 2021 and a fully renewable global Supercharger Network. Furthermore, the report emphasizes the company’s dedication to minimizing greenhouse gas emissions throughout its entire value chain, encompassing supply chain processes, manufacturing, sales, service, and deliveries. Tesla disclosed that a commendable 90% of its manufacturing waste undergoes recycling. Each Tesla facility boasts full solar panel coverage, effectively tapping into the sun’s energy. By the end of 2021, a total of 21,405 kW of solar panels adorned the rooftops of Gigafactory Nevada, Gigafactory New York, and Tesla’s facilities in California.
Product Impact
Demonstrating a steadfast dedication to affordability since 2018, Tesla is set to revolutionize the industry by significantly reducing the costs of their upcoming fleets by an impressive 50%. Their focus extends beyond cost reduction, as they craft products designed for universal appeal, ensuring ease and safety for all through innovations such as autopilot, sensors, and AEB.
People And Culture
Tesla’s commitment extends beyond product innovation to workplace values and diversity. Acknowledging employees as pivotal assets, the company strives to provide a workplace that fosters respect, satisfaction, and appreciation.

This aligns with the values cherished by ZEROCAR, resonating with our shared principles in both our community and workplace.
Supply Chain
Tesla collaborates with companies that prioritize both human rights and environmental preservation. The essential minerals for their batteries are sourced directly from mining and refining companies, enabling active involvement in environmental and social causes.
