Renault-Nissan Alliance joins World Business Council for Sustainable Development

The Renault-Nissan Alliance has become the newest member of the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD), joining forces with over 200 international companies promoting global sustainability.

The Alliance’s commitment to sustainability is a cornerstone of its business as sustainable decisions help drive innovation. While Renault-Nissan develops the cars of the future, it is also focused on creating products that enhance society, increase mobility for all and help solve today's most significant safety and environmental challenges.

Renault-Nissan Alliance has sold more than 340,000 zero-emissions vehicles since 2010. Its engineers are also working on developing autonomous drive, connectivity and other next-generation technologies towards the Alliance goal of zero-emissions and zero-fatalities.

Peter Bakker, WBCSD’s president and CEO, said, “As we move toward the low carbon economy, it’s imperative that we have strong and forward thinking leaders in the automobile sector. We look forward to working with Renault-Nissan Alliance to deliver the business solutions that will address serious global challenges, and hope they will create new global benchmarks for more sustainable car companies.”
