Insights into Cisco Systems's Energy Inflows & Self-Sufficiency
In 2024, Cisco Systems reported total energy inflows of 5.02 million Gigajoules, which corresponds to the company's full energy needs, including energy consumed, redistributed, sold, or stored. This energy inflow was composed of 1.54 million Gigajoules purchased from external suppliers and 3.49 million Gigajoules generated through internal production. This corresponds to a production share of 69.43%, reflecting a 6,933.29% percentage point increase from the previous year (2023) and a 6,926.68% percentage point increase since 2019.
These consistent increases, both year-over-year and over the longer term, suggest that Cisco Systems is actively strengthening its energy autonomy. The company appears to be making deliberate, sustained investments in internal energy production, possibly to improve energy security, reduce reliance on volatile external markets, or support broader sustainability goals.
