Formula E sets the standard for sustainability in global sport
It is honestly difficult to grasp just how far ahead Formula E is playing the game. While most series talk about the future, Formula E is hitting milestones that force everyone else to catch up. The most staggering piece of news? In January 2026, they officially became the world's first B Corp Certified sport. This is not just a badge; it is a full validation of their operations, from the paddock to the boardroom.
Their commitment goes beyond just being clean. Through the Better Futures Fund, they are pouring €25,000 into every host city in Season 12 to tackle real-world challenges. It is a brilliant way to leave a lasting mark, similar to the work they have already done with groups like Associacao PiPA and Miami EdTech. They are also shaping the next generation through the Driving Force programme, which has already reached over 70,000 children.
The numbers speak for themselves. In 2025, they topped the Global Sustainability Benchmark in Sport (GSBS) for the fourth consecutive year with an 85/100 score, beating the industry average by almost 30 points. When you combine that with their certification to BSI’s Net Zero Pathway, you realize this is a machine that operates with serious intent.
Then, of course, there is the engineering. The incoming GEN4 beast is an absolute marvel, pushing 600kW (815bhp) while being designed to be 100% recyclable or reusable. It is a stunning bit of kit that manages to be both a monster on the track and a leader in sustainable innovation, proving once and for all that high-performance racing does not have to compromise on the future of our planet.
