Keysight’s portion of the project is estimated to generate renewable electricity equivalent to 100% of the company’s electricity consumption in the United States and Canada. This commitment will result in significant progress towards Keysight’s renewable electricity initiatives, near-term science-based targets, and goal to achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions in company operations by the end of fiscal year 2040.
