Fifth Third Bank Installs Solar Panels at Five Florida Financial Centers

Business

Fifth Third Bank, National Association, a recognized leader in environmental sustainability, announced that it has completed solar panel installations at five of its financial centers in Florida. The installations mark the first time that Fifth Third has added solar panels to its own properties. The installations further Fifth Third’s commitment to sustainability by reducing its environmental footprint and location-based greenhouse gas emissions. The Bank had already achieved its 2017 goal to purchase 100% renewable power through a long-term virtual purchase agreement since the opening of an 80- megawatt solar facility in North Carolina in 2019. The installations were led by SEM Power, a veteran-owned business headquartered in Tampa, Florida. Together the five locations are expected to generate more than 200,000 kilowatt hours of renewable power annually (covering more than 80% of annual electric needs at some locations). The financial centers include: Lely Financial Center in Naples,  University and Tuttle Financial Center in Sarasota, Englewood Financial Center in Englewood, Stickney Point Financial Center in Sarasota, Estero Financial Center in Estero. A leader in environmental sustainability, Fifth Third has a $100 billion environmental and social finance target and bold operational sustainability goals to be achieved through 2030. Through Dividend Finance, the Bank is a national market leader for sustainable home improvement products and services for consumers.
