Fashion's Renewable Energy Push Faces a Supplier Cost Test
Original: Fashion’s Renewable Energy Push Faces a Supplier Cost Test
The fashion industry's drive to switch its supply chains to renewable energy is running into a cost problem, with suppliers expected to bear much of the financial burden of the transition. Brands have pledged to cut emissions, but manufacturers, many operating on thin margins, are questioning who pays for clean power. Debate centres on whether brands should fund suppliers' energy transitions rather than passing costs down.
Why now: Ongoing tension between brands' climate commitments and the financial pressure on their supplier base.
