HPE Living Progress
Our mission: Meeting the technology demands of the future, sustainably.
Our purpose
Our purpose at HPE is to advance the way people live and work. HPE is dedicated to offering sustainable solutions and services that can help customers and partners advance toward their climate goals and achieve their own net zero and social impact commitments in the course of their business transformations.

Enterprises are hitting resource limitations as they try to scale – there’s never been a better time to remove resource inefficiencies across the entire IT product lifecycle. HPE is committed to a circular economy, helping you make end-to-end choices from design to operation to end of life, optimizing the asset lifecycle and reuse of assets.
HPE takes a data-driven approach to focus our efforts on initiatives that will have the most significant impact on mitigating our environmental footprint.
This commitment, and the technological and engineering innovations it has spurred, is already delivering benefit to our customers: pairing reduced energy and resource consumption, and associated cost, with greater performance.
As the first IT company to set science-based targets across its value chain aligned to the goals of the Paris climate accord, we recognize the imperative to minimize our industry’s environmental footprint and the opportunity enable a low-carbon economy. HPE is committed to becoming net-zero across the entire value chain—including the use of HPE products—by 2040. Our roadmap to get there requires a fundamental transformation in everything we do.

The foundation’s mission is to deploy skills, resources, and technology to address social challenges and advance the way people live and work. We believe that, together, we can be a force for good, and that technology has the potential to enable greater efficiencies, mitigate social inequities, and drive better solutions to the world’s most complex challenges.
Leadership and transparency are central to our supply chain responsibility. We publicly report key information about our suppliers and their social and environmental performance year-over-year, which helps us hold ourselves and our suppliers accountable.
