DUBLIN, IE / ACCESS Newswire / September 18, 2026 / Intelligent power management company Eaton today announced it has been named one of the 100 Best Corporate Citizens by 3BL Media. The recognition reflects Eaton's continued progress embedding sustainability across its operations, innovation strategy and customer solutions as demand for reliable, efficient and sustainable power continues to grow.
"We're honored to be recognized among the 100 Best Corporate Citizens," said Harold Jones, chief sustainability officer and chief of staff, Eaton. "Sustainability is not a separate initiative at Eaton - it is embedded in how we innovate, operate and grow. As demand for power accelerates, we're focused on helping customers use power more efficiently, strengthen resilience and reduce their environmental footprint, while continuing to advance our own goals with transparency and accountability."
Eaton's 2025 Sustainability Report, published earlier this year, highlights measurable progress across the company's sustainability priorities. Since 2018, Eaton has reduced Scope 1 and Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 40%. The company also certified 86% of sites as zero waste to landfill, and achieved a "Performer" sustainability rating, Eaton's standard for improved sustainability performance, for 96% of new products.
This year's 100 Best Corporate Citizens ranking reviewed the 1,000 largest publicly traded companies in America and increased the weight of factors within the environment and human rights pillars, sharpening the ranking's focus on how companies assess, disclose, and mitigate risk in those areas.
