Company expands independent third-party assurance, integrated technology systems, and use of lower-carbon steel
FREMONT, Calif., Oct. 1, 2026 – Nextpower™ (Nasdaq: NXT), a leading provider of clean power technology solutions, today published its fiscal year 2026 Sustainability Report, highlighting its environmental, social, and governance (ESG) progress across its operations, global supply chain, products, and expanding technology solutions platform.
The company’s third annual report, and the first published under the Nextpower brand, highlights the validation of the company’s climate targets by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), expanded independent third-party assurance across scope 1, 2, and 3 GHG emissions, and continued investment in lower-carbon materials, product innovation, and responsible supply chain operations. It also details a 12% reduction in Scope 3 emissions intensity compared with FY2025 levels due in part to the use of lower carbon electric arc furnace (EAF) steel in its products. The report also expands the depth and transparency of its ESG disclosures.
“Sustainability is embedded in how we engineer products, operate our business, and create long-term value for our customers,“ said Lindsey Wiedmann, chief legal and compliance officer, Nextpower. „This year’s report demonstrates measurable progress stemming from our focus on product innovation, disciplined execution, and supply chain quality across a global network of over 100 partner manufacturing facilities. These efforts help reduce environmental impact while enabling our customers to build faster, operate more reliably, and improve the long-term economics of critical power infrastructure.“
Since the close of FY2026, Nextpower has also received higher ratings from two third-party ESG rating organizations. In July 2026, the company’s ISS STOXX ESG Corporate Rating improved from C+ to B-, maintained Prime status, and achieved a Decile Rank of 1 within its applicable industry classification. The company’s MSCI ESG Rating increased from A to AA, placing Nextpower in MSCI’s “Leader” category among 180 companies in the electrical equipment industry.
