The increase of our manufacturing operations has resulted in an increase in electricity needs to meet those demands. Our energy conservation efforts include using variable frequency drives, efficient air compressors and chillers, LED lighting and state-of-the-art lighting controls. In addition, we utilize alternative energy sources, including solar panels, cogeneration systems, a geothermal system and wind power.
In 2025, approximately 46% of the electricity powering our facilities that support our manufacturing operations globally came from alternative energy sources.
From 2024 to 2025, we decreased our global utility grid consumption per square foot by 6%.
Applied Medical generates solar power at its corporate headquarters in Southern California and its European headquarters in Amersfoort, the Netherlands. Our solar power generated over 3 million kilowatt-hours of electricity in 2025, providing about 6% of our global electricity needs.
Our cogneration systems, utilized in one of our manufacturing facilities, generated about 19 million kilowatt-hours of electricity in 2025 to meet approximately 39% of our total electricity needs. We have a total of three cogen systems that have been installed in our Southern California manufacturing facilities.
Our manufacturing facility in the Netherlands is powered by 100% renewable energy, including wind and geothermal sources.
