Rivian to power 10k miles of driving with 100% renewable energy for R1T/R1S purchases
Rivian’s electric vehicles are among the most sustainable cars in the market today. But with the company’s recently announced initiative, every R1T or R1S purchased before the end of 2024 would be even cleaner. Rivian would be accomplishing this through a renewable energy matching program.
As per Rivian in a post on its official account on social media platform X, the company would be powering up to 10,000 miles of driving with 100% renewable energy for customers who take delivery of a new R1T or R1S by the end of the year. The incentive applies regardless of where customers would charge their R1 vehicle.
"Let’s make a bold move for a brighter future. We're powering up to 10,000 miles of driving with 100% renewable energy when you take delivery of a new R1S or R1T by the end of the year," Rivian wrote in its post on X.

As part of its renewable energy matching program, Rivian will be purchasing 4.8 MWh of renewable energy certificates equal to 10,000 miles of driving for each eligible R1 vehicle purchased through the end of Q4 2024, as
“Now through the end of 2024, Rivian will match charging with 100% renewable energy for all new R1 purchases for up to 10,000 miles. No matter where customers charge, they are powering their adventures with 100% renewable energy and contributing to a cleaner energy grid for all.”
"This work is the result of Rivian drivers doing what they do best — hitting the road and making lasting memories in their vehicles. Many owners charge with the Rivian Adventure Network, which is entirely powered by 100% renewable energy. Combined with our holistic approach to deploying renewable energy projects, the miles you log directly benefit the communities and natural spaces we all cherish," Rivian wrote in a post on its official website.
It should be noted that every R1 vehicle purchase enables the full 4.8 MWh of renewable energy certificates even if drivers charge at the Rivian Adventure Network sites that are already powered by 100% renewable energy. Rivian is also expected to post a report on its renewable energy certificates supply and supported projects following the conclusion of the program.
