January 13, 2025: US lead and lithium battery major EnerSys has been included in Newsweek’s list of America’s 500 most responsible companies for the third consecutive year.

EnerSys said on January 8 the listing underscored the company’s commitment to environmental stewardship, social responsibility, and corporate governance.

Newsweek’s annual ranking, supported by research and data firm Statista, evaluates the top 2,000 public companies in the US based on their performance across environmental, social, and corporate governance.

The assessment incorporates more than 30 key performance indicators, including energy usage, charitable contributions, and board diversity.

EnerSys CEO David Shaffer said: “We integrate sustainable practices into every aspect of our business, we not only enhance our operations but also contribute meaningfully to the global energy transition.”

Batteries International reported in 2023 that EnerSys was making substantial progress in its drive to reduce operational carbon emissions, after the company pledged in an inaugural sustainability report to reduce its environmental footprint.
