AISO.Net is powered by the sun! By generating electricity via on-site solar panels, AISO.Net is able to provide superior web hosting, dedicated servers, co-location and Internet services while minimizing harm to the environment. The solar panels power both the data center and offices. Since its inception, AISO.Net has had a very serious environmental business commitment. In 2001 it made further efforts to minimize negative impacts to the environment by adding on-site solar power generation. The company was able to invest in renewable energy without having to increase client fees. "The big bonus for our clients is that they can market their sites as being solar powered and be happy in the knowledge that by hosting with us, they are increasing their contribution towards positive environmental change," commented Phil Nail, Technology Manager for AISO. Since AISO is 100 percent virtual it allows us to add additional clients without increasing our power needs. Another big advantage is our cooling only uses on average 200 watts of power.

Ahold USA operates approximately 785 grocery stores in the United States under the Stop & Shop, Giant Food, GIANT Food Stores, and MARTIN'S Food Markets brands, as well as Peapod, an e-commerce grocery shopping and delivery service. <br /><br /> Renewable energy procurement is a significant part of Ahold's global environmental strategy. Ahold USA has installed 40 on-site solar systems, with 8.9 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) per year. They have also purchased 350 million kWh of Green-e certified renewable energy certificates in 2015, equivalent to 18 percent of Ahold stores' energy usage. This significant 235% increase in Green-e RECs demonstrates Ahold's commitment to green power. <br /><br /> The company's commitment to renewable energy is part of its "Responsible Retailing" vision towards sustainability—outlined in an annual report—that encompasses initiatives focused on five priority areas: people, products, communities, partners, and the environment. As part of this vision, Ahold USA recently achieved a reduction in its carbon footprint of over 20 percent at year end 2015, from its 2008 baseline. In addition, Ahold has now reset its target to a 30% reduction by 2020. <br /><br /> Ahold USA's Joint Committee on Sustainability, which includes major suppliers for the company, meets quarterly to share best practices in sustainability, renewable energy procurement, and energy conservation. <br /><br /> Ahold USA completed construction of an anaerobic digester in Massachusetts. The digester will take unsold, non-consumable organic waste from more than 200 stores and convert it to biogas to generate electricity and create a byproduct that will be used as a fertilizer. When operational, the facility will process 40,000 tons of organic product annually. <br /><br /> In addition to using green power, the company has implemented a variety of other carbon footprint reduction efforts, including energy conservation such as lighting retrofits, building retro-commissioning, HVAC and refrigeration upgrades. <br /><br /> Ahold USA has been an EPA Green Power Partner since 2011.

Ten Ten Mass is one of the premiere condominium buildings in downtown Washington, DC. By continuing our membership in the EPA Green Power Partnership, the building is expanding its premium living experience to include environmental sustainability. The building is powering 100% of its common area energy needs through renewable energy sources. This renewable energy use is allowing the building to also save money. Consequently, this led the Board of Directors to look for other green projects in the building to cut costs. They upgraded more than 400 lightbulbs in the building to more efficient LED and fluorescent varieties and are saving a few thousand dollars a year while reducing electricity usage. "Switching to green power at 1010 Mass has proven a cost effective way for our community to invest in ourselves and our community. Not only are we realizing cost savings and helping the environment, but prospective buyers are taking notice of our building's green attributes," said Greg Taylor, 1010 Mass's President.

Situated in Sugar Land, Texas, Accredo Packaging, Inc. is a fully integrated converting company producing flexible packaging with an emphasis on sustainability, with best in class production processes, primarily targeting the Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG) markets. The LEED® Silver certified manufacturing facility utilizes 100% wind-generated electrical power, with a focus on eliminating waste while minimizing its carbon footprint. The manufacturing facility has the most current technology available for blown films, flexographic printing, adhesive lamination, pouch and bag making. Products include coextruded, laminated, printed or unprinted barrier roll-stock, pouches, wicketed bags and bundling film. Accredo Packaging has found that renewable energy is one of the easiest and most effective ways to minimize the impact of carbon emissions. The company decided to purchase wind power because it proved a more cost effective alternative to solar power and the increased cost of wind over fossil fuel-sourced power was minimal, considering the benefit achieved. “We pursue sustainable processes when it comes to production of our products,” says Accredo’s Executive Vice President, Rex Varn. “By powering our business using 100% wind-generated power we reduce our non-renewable energy consumption and lessen our impact on the environment."

Established in 1976, Acer is dedicated to the research, design, marketing, sale and support of innovative products and services that enhance people's lives. Acer employs 7,000 people and ranks No. 5 for total PCs globally (IDC 2015). Revenues for 2015 reached US$7.98 billion. With the company’s Build Your Own Cloud (BYOC™) mission, Acer is transforming into a "hardware + software + services" company and actively seeking to embrace new opportunities in the era of the ICT industry. Please visit www.acer.com for more information.<br /><br /> It remains Acer's goal to become a climate-friendly enterprise. We place a great deal of importance on developing and supplying low-carbon products as well as reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of all our operations. Acer has been a member of the Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP) Supply Chain Program since 2008, and we have encouraged our suppliers to respond to questionnaires from the CDP regarding greenhouse gas emissions and policies in response to climate change. Acer continues to score above average in supplier response rates as well as the thoroughness of those responses.<br /><br /> To support the American government’s policy action on climate change, Acer is a signatory of initiatives such as the Business for Innovative Climate Change and Energy Policy (BICEP) Climate Declaration by the Coalition for Environmentally Responsible Economics (known as Ceres), as well as the American Business Act on Climate Pledge, which demonstrated our ongoing commitment to climate action and support for a strong outcome at the COP21 Paris climate negotiations. Recently in late 2016, we reiterated our support of the Climate Pledge by joining other companies to call on our elected U.S. leaders to strongly support continued U.S. participation in the Paris Climate Agreement, the continuation of low-carbon domestic policies, and investment in the low-carbon economy at home and abroad.<br /><br /> Acer Group’s principal focus with regard to carbon reduction and energy savings lies in office electricity usage, since Scope 2 electricity usage accounts for approximately 80% of Acer's global emissions. When looking for cost efficiency, the priority is improving operational energy efficiency first, followed by the use of green electricity. When these methods are not technically or economically feasible, other considerations, such as renewable energy certificates (RECs), are used in support of our commitment to renewable energy and the climate change issue. Acer achieved the goal to reduce its global greenhouse gas emissions 30% by 2015 and remains on track to further reduce its emissions 60% by 2020, over its 2009 baseline emissions. The purchase of RECs equaling at least 100% of the electricity used by Acer’s United States operations, continues to be one element in its strategy to attain this global goal.

Adventist HealthCare, an integrated health-care delivery organization based in Gaithersburg, Maryland, is one of the largest employers in the state with multiple health-care facilities. In March 2010, the organization announced it had successfully reduced its future carbon footprint and saved on electrical costs for seven facilities in Maryland and one in New Jersey using an online reverse energy auction platform. The organization was able to purchase 10 percent green energy and reduce its carbon dioxide emissions by 4,100 metric tons annually. Adventist HealthCare realized it needed to take its multiple electricity contracts and turn them into a single, structured procurement event that would attract the regions’ top suppliers, spur aggressive bidding and yield transparent pricing. As a result, Adventist HealthCare secured favorable contracts that will allow the organization to focus more of its financial resources on patient care while significantly greening its portfolio. "The money we have saved will help us invest in long-term energy efficiency initiatives while advancing our overall mission of providing quality care to our patients,” said Terry Forde, President and CEO of Adventist HealthCare.

Alcatraz Cruises, LLC uses 100 percent green power as part of our commitment to sustainability and our Respect Our Planet brand. A portion of our green energy comes directly from solar panels installed through the US Green Power REC program and as established under the Green-e Energy national Standard. In addition, we purchase carbon offsets for Green-e Climate and Climate Action Reserve and also CAR Landfill Gas Capture Any CAR+ Green-e Climate Protocol. A total of 1.166 and 88 MT CO2e to offset the diesel. Creating amazing experiences is our company's goal and the process of becoming 100 percent green powered was amazingly simple and affordable thanks to the support of the green energy community. While it pleases us to share our green commitments with Alcatraz guests, it is much more exciting for our employees who work day in and day out knowing their company is taking significant strides to reduce the industry's environmental impact. Our organization was the first fleet in North America with a full hybridized vessel fleet and among the top in the world as of the year 2010. The Hornblower Hybrid was one of the first hybrids in the world and first in North America in the year 2008.

Beginning in 2011, Allegheny College began purchasing certified wind energy to supply 100 percent of its annual power usage . “This single agreement, which immediately eliminates 52 percent of Allegheny’s carbon footprint, takes us halfway toward fulfilling the promise we made when we signed the President’s Climate Commitment in 2007,” said David McInally, Allegheny vice president for finance and planning. “It represents a major step forward for Allegheny and supports our educational mission, campus values, institutional partnerships, operational efficiency and the college’s new 10-year strategic plan.” Allegheny first invested in wind renewable energy credits in 2002, purchasing RECs for 10 percent of total annual electricity consumption. In 2007, this was increased to 15 percent, making the college an EPA recognized Green Power Partner.

Throughout our 41-year history, Alpine Bank has partnered in things that make our commuities better. Alpine Bank operates 37 distinct and separate locations throughout Colorado with over 520 employee-owners. Our formalized Green Team ensures our organization is accountable to our Environmental Management System and our Environmental Policy. In 2006, Alpine Bank became the first and only known U.S.-owned bank to earn ISO 14001 certification. Where possible, Alpine Bank buys 100 percent green electric power directly from our utility providers. At locations where utilities do not yet offer green power as an option, Alpine Bank obtains carbon offsets through a donation to a Colorado nonprofit. Our annual donation is used to support energy efficiency and renewable energy projects in our state. Additionally, we support the concept of "distributed energy." Since 2008, we've begun to produce a small amount of our own clean, renewable power by adding solar electric panels to our buildings in Rifle South, Silt, and Glenwood Springs. These new systems produce enough electricity to power five homes. For more information about Alpine Bank's environmental efforts, please visit our website or email us with your thoughts and ideas at greenteam@alpinebank.com.

American Airlines Group is the holding company for American Airlines and US Airways. Together with their regional partners, the airlines operate an average of nearly 6,700 flights per day to nearly 350 destinations in more than 50 countries. <br /><br /> The cornerstone of American’s effort to reduce its environmental footprint is our multi-billion dollar fleet renewal program. A multi-year effort, this upgrade will lower the amount of jet fuel we burn—and greenhouse gases we release—to transport each passenger, or pound of cargo, to their destination. We are also making great strides through Fuel Smart, our flagship employee-centered effort to identify fuel saving opportunities. We are cutting the volume and costs to handle our outbound waste by opting to reuse or recycle as much as we can. And we’re cutting electricity consumption via efficiency-enhancing upgrades to buildings and other facilities. <br /><br /> American continues its efforts to reduce its environmental footprint by committing to purchase electricity with renewable content for its facilities in north Texas. Starting Spring of 2015, American’s headquarter campus in Fort Worth, Envoy’s headquarters in Irving, Envoy’s maintenance facility in Abilene, as well as other owned facilities are using electricity with 30 percent renewable content.

The decision to start the switch to green power was initially made to improve their profile in the community. We were amazed to discover how many customers, vendors, and neighbors supported the change. The long term cost savings made it easy to decide to continue to increase green energy use.

Americraft manufactures heirloom-quality, American-made cookware that provides a lifetime of quality cooking experiences. Our manufacturing facility uses 100 percent green power generated from wind. Living and working in such a way to leave as little waste as possible is a belief system that our owners and officers take very seriously. Americraft looks for green solutions at every turn just because it’s who we are and how we want to live. We didn’t make a choice, per se, to use renewable energy. We knew this was the way we wanted to go and as soon as it became available, we made the switch. <br /><br /> We’ve led the cookware industry by making our entire manufacturing process more sustainable and we realize that we pay a premium for this solution. However, we have faith that as other companies understand the overall benefits, they too will make the switch and the costs will eventually become attainable for the masses. <br /><br /> “We were green from the beginning. Not because it’s cool, but because it’s the right thing to do. Manufacturing any other way is not an option.” - Bryan Hurley, Owner

The mission of Amphitheater Public Schools is to empower all students in grades K-12 to become contributing members of society, equipped with the skills, knowledge, and values necessary to meet the challenges of a changing world. We take great pride in our spirit of collaboration and are committed to creating innovative, meaningful learning opportunities. For example, as a result of the district's recent installation of solar power systems across 24 school sites and support facilities, the district was able to demonstrate the viability of clean energy resources to our students, faculty, and the entire Amphitheater community. Students are exploring how solar electricity works and are learning about the benefits of renewable energy and energy efficiency. These concepts not only apply to subject areas such as science, math, social studies, language arts, and technology, but they also play a role in their futures by introducing them to potential careers and habits to become responsible citizens and good stewards of the environment.

Apex Express is a same-day transportation company that uses couriers, bobtails, and trucks to deliver anything locally, regionally, or in the country SAME DAY with air freight. The company has been carbon neutral since 2012 after it increased its on-site solar array. Apex Express has two buildings covered with solar panels that provide all of the electricity for the buildings and electric vehicles. Apex Express wanted to be green and knowing that their utility would reimburse much of the solar install cost, along with the government’s 30% tax credit, was a huge contributing factor in their decision to install solar on the company buildings.<br /><br />The hardest thing for the company to overcome was the upfront cost of the solar installations. The company knew it would benefit from the free energy for 25+ years, but the breakeven point for the install is about 3 years. The biggest benefit they found is that the payoff can be quicker if electricity prices rise or if there are more sunny days than expected. Apex Express experienced both.<br /><br />"Becoming a 110% green power user was not our goal when we decided to install solar, but reducing our carbon footprint was. We have exceeded our plans on reducing our energy bill for our company, and it feels awesome knowing we are carbon neutral," said Jay Squyres, President Apex Express, Inc.

At Apple, we already achieved 100 percent renewable for all our U.S. operations (including all of our data centers)—and we did that back in 2013—and we are up to 93 percent for our worldwide operations. <br/><br/> To achieve this we use a tiered approach—starting with energy efficiency, followed by an aggressive use of new Apple created renewable energy generation projects, and then through industry-leading partnerships with utilities and renewable energy providers for grid-purchased renewable energy. <br/><br/> When investing in grid-purchased renewable energy, we prefer projects that clearly demonstrate the principle of 'additionality,' whereby Apple's involvement causes new renewable energy sources to be developed and brought to the market. <br/><br/> Our preference in grid-purchased renewable energy is to contract directly with renewable generation sources. However, we cannot purchase energy this way everywhere we operate—in some cases, regulations actually prohibit it. In such situations, we may use the local utility’s green energy program, if it is sufficiently robust, or purchase renewable energy credits (RECs). Prior to bringing online our Apple-created projects, we may purchase RECs as a short-term bridging strategy while we await regulatory approval and the completion of other long lead-time efforts. When we purchase RECs, we prefer they come from the same state as the Apple facility they support and that they be Green-e Energy certified. <br/><br/> In the future, as our facilities and data centers grow, we will increase our renewable energy participation to keep pace with growth.

Autodesk makes software for people who make things. If you’ve ever driven a high-performance car, admired a towering skyscraper, used a smartphone, or watched a great film, chances are you’ve experienced what millions of Autodesk customers are doing with our software. Autodesk gives you the power to make anything. For more information visit autodesk.com or follow @autodesk. <br /><br /> Autodesk strives to reduce the environmental footprint of our facilities by designing efficient and sustainable buildings and workspaces, often through the use of our own software. We focus foremost on GHG emissions due to energy use since it has the most significant impact. Autodesk began its switch to green power when we started building our offices to achieve LEED certification in 2008, and we now use renewable energy wherever there is a local option available. In our U.S. offices, our energy mix includes 61 percent renewables. In addition to using green power when available, Autodesk voluntarily purchases carbon-neutral energy and renewable energy certificates and offsets. Globally, these totaled 13.8 million kilowatt-hours in fiscal year 2015, compared to 12.3 million kilowatt-hours the prior year."

Bentley University is one of the nation's leading business schools, dedicated to preparing a new kind of business leader; one with the deep technical skills, a broad global perspective and high ethical standards required to make a difference in an ever-changing world. Bentley knows that sustainability is part of the future of business so we teach students how to think critically about resource conservation and climate change. The university is committed to carbon-neutrality by 2030. This goal includes 50 percent reduction in greenhouse gases by 2015 (acheived) and a 70 percent reduction by 2020. <br/><br/> With the understanding that 50 percent of the university’s carbon footprint is generated from the electricity use, the Facilities Management department has taken on an aggressive schedule of energy efficiency upgrades. Heating, cooling and lighting is controlled throughout most campus spaces using a state-of-the-art energy management system. The Office of Sustainability educates the community on energy and climate change and together with Facilities Management worked to purchase 25 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) of wind power via third-party certified renewable energy certificates (RECs) using money saved through energy efficiency projects. The green power purchase accounts for the campus’ total annual electricity use, thus cutting Bentley’s carbon footprint in half two years ahead of its 2015 goal.

Through cutting-edge science and medicine, Biogen discovers, develops and delivers to patients worldwide innovative therapies for people living with serious neurological, autoimmune and rare diseases. Founded in 1978, Biogen is one of the world’s oldest independent biotechnology companies and patients worldwide benefit from its leading multiple sclerosis and innovative hemophilia therapies. <br /><br /> We believe we can make a positive impact which drives much of our citizenship and sustainability work. Our dedicated approach to global corporate citizenship is a source of pride for all Biogen employees. Together we work to meet the best interests of society and our communities and improve outcomes for people living with serious diseases. <br /><br /> Our commitment to carbon neutrality - and going 100% renewable - aligns with Biogen’s mission of improving the lives of patients – we believe that caring for our patients and our people goes hand in hand with caring for our environment. This long-term ambition to reduce our carbon footprint includes an overall strategy to measure, reduce and neutralize our emissions. Renewables are key to delivering on this. We want to apply the same intellectual discipline and rigor as we apply in the development of our therapies. Collaboration across our industry is also key as we think about what the biopharmaceutical community can do to collectively address sustainability challenges. Since roughly 70% of the total emissions associated with our business is in our supply chain, we see this as an opportunity to continue to find innovative ways of working with our suppliers and effecting positive change across the whole industry. Going for carbon neutrality and increasing our efficiencies has helped us to drive meaningful carbon reductions. <br /><br /> We are learning every day as this is a journey to us and we are just at the beginning of what we can achieve both within our organization, within our industry and beyond.

Biokleen is a pioneering brand and manufacturer of plant- and mineral-based, non-toxic home cleaning products. Founded in a Portland, OR garage, Biokleen remains family owned and operated since 1989. Our Laundry, Kitchen, Household and Bac-Out® Collections are free of phosphates, chlorine, alcohol, ammonia, petroleum solvents, butyl, glycol ether—as well as the synthetic colors, artificial fragrances and optical brighteners. The first brand to offer ultra-concentrated formulas, we work to decrease our footprint—and the footprints of our customers—by innovating products that use less water, less packaging and less shipping emissions, and return those savings to the families who need them. <br /><br /> Biokleen currently offsets 100% of the energy and water used to manufacture through Clark Public Utilities Green Lights Program and the Bonneville Environmental Foundation. <br /><br /> Since making the switch to green power, in 2005, Biokleen has been featured in Clark Public Utilities’ campaign to educate local citizens and businesses about its sustainable energy programs and practices. The ads helped us to inform our most important consumers, our own community, about our product line and guiding principles. We extended that work to all longstanding and potential customers by including our offsets in our labels, marketing materials, and social media outreach.

BMW Manufacturing earned a 2003 Green Power Leadership Award for using landfill gas to generate a portion of the power needed to operate its Spartanburg, South Carolina manufacturing facility. Landfill gas is piped from a landfill to the manufacturing facility to power its two gas turbines, which generate approximately 11 MW of electricity for the factory, and also to supply hot water for cooling, heating, and hot water needs. BMW credits EPA's Landfill Methane Outreach Program for educating the company on the advantages of landfill gas in terms of environmental impact and lower energy costs.

State College Borough is serious about sustainability. Borough Council committed to sustainability in 2007 when it passed Resolution 944, a Commitment to be a Climate Protection Community, with a set of goals targeting the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. Borough Council recognized the importance of being a leader in the community. Since 2007, the Borough has pursued a number of projects to enhance the environmental sustainability of municipal operations and to encourage State College Borough residents to pursue similar projects at home. As part of this commitment, the Borough began purchasing renewable energy certificates (RECs) in 2011 and is continuing this purchase for a third year in the hope that it will inspire residents to take similar steps to conserve energy and support the generation of energy from renewable sources. The biggest benefit of purchasing RECs is the motivation it inspires for future energy efficiency projects. Paying the true cost for energy generation is a great motivator to harnessing the power of the nega-watt, the energy we save through energy conservation projects and best practices.

Boutwell, Owens and Co. is a designer and manufacturer of printed paperboard packaging. The company purchases wind power for both its facilities in Massachusetts. It has also completed a GHG audit, confirming its carbon credit purchase level. "We made this decision which is consistent with our past and long standing commitment to do what is right, attempting to be a good corporate citizen," says William P. Hodges, Vice President of Sales and Marketing. "We have seen a massive outpouring of support and interest from our community and our customer base which was expected, but not at the level that we are presently enjoying. Following the purchase of the assets of Guynes Printing of El Paso Texas, and their integration into the Boutwell Owens Company as our Guynes Packaging and Printing Division, we increasd our renewable energy commitment to include 100% of Guynes' energy consumption as well, bringing our kWh purchases of RECs to 3,893,000 annually. In addition we increased our carbon offset credit purchases to 430.91 per year for two years, covering both facilities 100%."

As a signatory to the Presidents’ Climate Commitment, Bunker Hill Community College (BHCC) supports the efforts of college and university presidents around the country to address the critical issue of climate neutrality. Fundamental to the College’s climate action plan submitted on Sep. 15, 2009, is the commitment by the institution to become carbon neutral by the year 2050. As outlined in this plan, the BHCC Presidents' Climate Commitment & Sustainability Committee determined the key contributors to its greenhouse gas emissions and helped develop five comprehensive strategies that will eventually reduce the College’s carbon footprint to zero. As it embarks on this challenging process, the College is purchasing renewable energy credits (RECs) equivalent to 100 percent of its electricity use. This purchase has allowed it to reduce its carbon footprint by more than 60 percent. Bunker Hill Community College has also adopted a green building policy and has achieved LEED Gold certification for its Health & Wellness Center, a 48,000-square-foot structure housing the College's nursing and health professions programs. The new facility is one of only two LEED Gold certified buildings in the fifteen campus Massachusetts community college system. This building symbolizes its commitment to a more sustainable future.

CA Technologies provides IT management solutions that help customers manage and secure complex IT environments to support agile business services. Organizations leverage CA Technologies software and SaaS solutions to accelerate innovation, transform infrastructure and secure data and identities, from the data center to the cloud. <br /><br /> At CA Technologies, we believe that success comes from a relentless focus on innovation and execution. These concepts are not only vital to our software development, but also to our sustainability efforts. Innovation in sustainability means doing things better and smarter. It means making the most of our resources and empowering people to do what they do best and using the power of diverse ideas to overcome challenges. Execution is equally as important. It is all about getting the right: the right people, doing the right things, at the right time, at the right cost structure. This applies to both our business and sustainability. Both are about making an impact through original ideas and processes while utilizing resources wisely. By pursuing strategies that decouple environmental impact with business growth, we are cutting costs at our offices around the world and advancing toward our commitment to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 35 percent by 2020 (using a 2006 baseline). We are proud that 100 percent of the power consumed by one of our largest US facilities is from wind energy.

CSU Bakersfield's commitment to environmental sustainability was driven by a cadre of nearly 300 faculty, staff, and students who encouraged President Horace Mitchell to sign the American College and University Presidents' Climate Commitment (ACUPCC) letter in 2007. "To reach our goal of becoming carbon neutral, the university purchases energy efficient appliances, produces at least 15 percent of our energy from renewable sources, builds all new construction to a minimum LEED silver equivalent standard, promotes multi-modal transportation to reduce single-occupant vehicle travel, and engages in waste reduction and recycling," stated President Mitchell. The biggest benefit of green power is the awareness of our campus community. A key lesson learned is to have committed faculty, staff, and students designated for the initiatives.

California State University, San Bernardino (CSUSB) is a public institution serving over 18,000 students with two geographic locations in Southern California: The main campus in San Bernardino and a satellite campus in Palm Desert. <br /><br /> CSUSB is part of the California State University system, which has established executive policy since 1989 to support renewable energy wherever cost-effective. In August 2007, CSUSB energized its first on-site renewable power generation with two rooftop photovoltaic arrays on the San Bernardino campus, followed by a much larger ground-mount array and a second rooftop array, both operational in September 2010. Together, CSUSB’s on-site renewable energy systems currently supply campus facilities with nearly 2 million kilowatt-hours of renewable power per year. <br /><br /> In addition to on-site generation, CSUSB facilities are supplied with electricity purchased from utilities required to provide a minimum 20 percent renewable resources in California. <br /><br /> Please visit http://sustainability.csusb.edu/Projects/index.html for more information."

Carlton Fields embarked on a sustainability journey in 2007. As a legal services provider, it did not have many of the environmental issues facing other companies, but still wanted to analyze and minimize its ecological footprint. The firm concluded that, though recycling and green procurement was important, reducing the impact of its energy use through renewable energy certificates (RECs) would have the most impact. The firm made an organization-wide commitment to cover all of its electricity use through RECs. It reevaluates its REC purchase annually to match its expanding business operations. Most important, the firm’s commitment extends to educating the legal industry, utilities, and clients about the impact that purchasing RECs has on the vital development of new renewable energy sources.

According to Laura Norton, Office Services Manager, "In order to gain the greatest positive environmental impact, we base our environmental investment decisions on our business and what we will see the greatest return on. We built our space to LEED-qualification standards but didn’t invest in certification, as the certification was costly and offered little return in comparison to other opportunities. One example of multi-faceted return is our support for renewable energy and development of carbon reduction projects."

With three hospitals on four sites, four nursing homes, two adult living facilities and more than 8,000 associates, Catholic Health is a major consumer of resources. Large health systems use an enormous amount of resources, so Catholic Health has a responsibility to protect the environment and has made a commitment to find ways to reduce its carbon footprint. <br /><br /> In September 2009, the health system signed an agreement with Constellation Energy to supply wind power for electricity at Catholic Health's facilities. That contract remains in place today. Catholic Health has found that efforts to reduce its carbon footprint are contagious. Since 2009, Catholic Health has sponsored electronic recycling days and annual pharmaceutical drop off days, which capture thousands of pounds of unwanted electronics and medication drugs. Catholic Health also implemented a system-wide single stream recycling program, diverting thousands of tons of waste since commencing in 2010.

CH2M, an employee-owned global consulting firm, commits to purchase renewable energy for its North American operations. This commitment supports CH2M's belief that renewable power has an important role in the country's air quality, climate change impacts, and energy security. <br /><br /> In 2015, CH2M purchased 16.0 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) of green power for its North American operations. Through these purchases 31% of CH2M's 2015 North American power use was green power. <br /><br /> CH2M plans to increase green power purchases in the future as part of a commitment to reduce its global 2017 carbon footprint by 25% as compared to a 2012 baseline. As announced in CH2M’s 2015 Sustainability and Corporate Citizenship Report (issued in June 2016), CH2M is over halfway toward its 2017 target. <br /><br /> "Using green power helps our organization become more sustainable, while also sending a message to others across the U.S. that supporting clean sources of electricity is a sound business decision and an important choice in reducing climate risk,” said Elisa Speranza, executive sponsor for sustainability and member of CH2M’s board.

Children’s Health is the eighth-largest pediatric health care provider in the nation and the leading pediatric health care system in North Texas, providing a full spectrum of health care services—from daily wellness and primary care to specialty visits and critical care. Holding eight disease-specific care certifications from The Joint Commission, Children’s Health has been consistently named one of the nation’s top pediatric providers by U.S. News & World Report. The Children’s Health system includes the flagship hospital Children’s Medical Center Dallas, as well as Children’s Medical Center Plano, eight specialty centers, 20 Children’s Health Pediatric Group primary care practices, nine Our Children’s House rehabilitation facilities, home health, physician services and the Children’s Medical Center Research Institute at UT Southwestern. <br /><br /> The 22,500,000 kWh of renewable energy competitively procured by Children's Health (equivalent to 25% of overall annual power consumption) contained both wind energy and solar energy from off-site wind and solar farms located in West Texas, and provided the lowest energy cost of all the options investigated. The 22,500,000 kilowatt hours of green electricity will be backed by renewable energy credits to offset the environmental effect that otherwise would occur because of the use of non-renewable fossil fuels. This action is equivalent to removing 26,588,250 lbs/year of CO2 or removing automobiles from the road equivalent to 29,041,170 miles/year driven by automobiles or powering over 1,864 homes/year with renewable energy all year round. <br /><br /> “Our mission is to make life better for children, and we have a responsibility to help give children the right start in a healthy environment,” said Christopher J. Durovich, president and chief executive officer of Children’s Health. “Reducing our carbon footprint directly contributes to that mission and leaves a healthier planet for future generations.”

We are a mom and pop jewelry store in a small town. We would love to have a solar array or a wind generator on the roof, but that is not in the picture for now. However, we found a method to express our desire for renewable energy through a company that provides RECs to offset our usage. We believe the more demand there is for renewable energy, the faster we can implement it on a national basis and work together toward a greener future.

Cisco Systems designs, manufactures, and sells internet protocol-based networking products related to the communications and information technology (IT) industry, and provides services associated with these products and their use. <br /><br /> In 2016, the company procured over 1.2 billion kilowatt-hours of green power globally, representing approximately 100 percent of its total U.S. and 77% of its global electricity consumption. Additionally, Cisco continues to implement energy-based projects throughout its 22 million square foot real estate portfolio, including energy efficiency retrofits and on-site solar installations, to help meet its sustainability goals. One such goal is to reduce its scope 1 and 2 emissions by 40 percent on an absolute basis by FY2017 compared to FY2007, and another is to use electricity from renewable sources for at least 25% of global electricity consumed every year through FY2017. <br /><br /> The company’s global presence enables it to play an important role in promoting green power and environmental sustainability within the IT industry. Cisco leads by example by reducing greenhouse gas emissions throughout its own operations and encouraging its vendors, business partners, and supply chain to do the same. It publicly reports its carbon footprint and has succeeded in getting between 80 and 100 percent of its primary suppliers (depending on type) to do the same. Cisco also asks suppliers to report their green power use in its Supplier Business Scorecard, which includes sustainability criteria to help Cisco better monitor supplier performance and to collaborate with supply chain partners to optimize environmental and labor improvements. <br /><br /> Cisco communicates the meaningful role that green power plays in its sustainability strategy as well as within the IT industry through its corporate social responsibility (CSR) report, press releases, and strategic partnerships. The company builds employee enthusiasm for green power by leveraging its ""Cisco Green"" online community, employee news site, and other communications channels. <br /><br /> Cisco Systems has been a Green Power Partner since 2006 and received a Partner of the Year Award in 2008, 2013, and 2016.

The City of Bellingham continues to demonstrate strong leadership in the purchase and support of green power. In early 2007 the Bellingham City Council voted unanimously to begin purchasing 100 percent green power for all city owned facilities. Later the same year, the City partnered with the local utility's green power program and a local non-profit organization to launch the Bellingham Green Power Community Challenge. The goal of the six-month challenge was to increase green power purchasing among the city's citizens and businesses to meet at least two percent of the city-wide electric load. The City of Bellingham’s leadership has also led other neighboring cities and counties to organize their own green power purchases.

The City of Columbus is the 15th largest city in the United States located in Central Ohio with over 800,000 citizens (2015). <br/><br/> Mayor Andrew J Ginther is committed to Columbus' sustainability initiatives. As part of the Mayor’s commitment to leading by example and reducing greenhouse gas emissions from city operations, the City of Columbus has reduced emissions by 25% from the years 2005 to 2014. The City is stepping up its usage in green power because of the threat of climate change and the resulting negative effects on the environment. <br/><br/> The city’s goal is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from city operations 40% by the year 2030. To help achieve this, the city uses more than 45 million kilowatt-hours (or 15%) green, renewable power generated from wind and hydroelectricity in 2015. <br/><br/> One big benefit of switching to green power is having citizens become more interested in green energy. There has been an increasing demand for a green energy option for municipal power consumers and we hope that continues.

The City of Corvallis, a member of the Cities for Climate Protection Campaign, is committed to sustainable practices and greenhouse gas emission reduction through the purchase of renewable energy. The City purchases 900,000 kWh of renewable energy annually, which accounts for a significant portion of its electrical energy load. In addition, the City collects methane gas produced at its wastewater treatment facility to heat anaerobic digesters, replacing the natural gas used to heat its administrative building. According to Mary Steckel, City of Corvallis Public Works Director, "Green power is an integral part of the City Council's desire to move towards sustainable practices. I believe that this desire is representative of the entire community. In the long term, the use of green power builds the capacity of the organization to withstand the impacts of price escalations and shortages of nonrenewable power. In the short term, the benefit of green power purchase is that it provides leadership in the community and encourages others to also make green power a priority."

The City of Hayward's Water Pollution Control Facility consumed almost 20% of the energy used for Municipal Government in Hayward a year and a half ago. We now produce 134.55% Green Power with the excess gbe credited to other City owned facilities under the RES-BCT tarif. The Hayward Water Pollution Control Facility (WPCF) is owned and operated by the City of Hayward and has been serving the City’s 150,000 residents and its over 10,000 businesses since 1952. It treats an average of 11.3 million gallons of wastewater per day, 365 days a year. Hayward’s innovative green solution involves four systems working together to literally turn waste into energy. WPCF is now generating over 11 million kilowatt-hours of green power annually, enough to support the facility’s energy use—and become an energy exporter. <br /><br /> 1. A new 1.13-megawatt state-of-the-art biogas fueled cogeneration engine replaced the two aging engines. It captures the gases released from the plant’s three anaerobic digesters and creates electrical power and heat. This electricity runs plant equipment and the waste heat is used internally to warm the microorganisms so they will happily eat, reproduce, and make more biogas. Power and heat production vary daily, but for comparison purposes, the WPCF now produces enough electricity to power about 900 homes and enough heat for 400 homes. <br /><br /> 2. Engine technology has evolved over time, boosting efficiency. Management anticipated needing additional biogas to utilize engine capacity. Building additional digesters to accomplish this would not be a good use of resources. <br /><br /> After trialing a small test system, the WPCF built and installed a new FOG (fats, oils and grease) receiving station. Grease haulers bring FOG to the facility from area restaurants and from a nearby plant that produces biofuel from cooking oil. The haulers pay for dumping, so this is a revenue source. FOG is pumped to the digesters and is an excellent food source for the microorgansms, creating more biogas for the engine. WPFC accepts about 200,000 gallons of waste a year. This oil and grease is not clogging drains or pipes, not landfilled, and not trucked to distant processing stations. Rather, it is another waste stream that is recycled and re-used, to generate energy. <br /><br /> 3. The facility’s photovoltaic array is the second largest solar installation in Alameda County. Generation of electricity has been so successful that a second 1-megawatt array is currently being planned. Currently, production would be enough to power 220 homes. <br /><br /> 4. With much negotiation and planning over the course of several years, the City allowed Calpine to build a gas-fired power plant on the WPCF site. Rather than use potable water to cool Calpine’s steam generators, the plant now recycles 2.5 to 4 million gallons a day of secondary treated (non-potable) water. There are two benefits: enough potable water is saved to supply 13,000-20,000 homes every year, and the plant’s effluent pumping costs have been reduced by 20%.

http://www.sandiego.gov/environmental-services/energy/index.shtml
The City of San Diego, California, a 2003 Green Power Leadership Award winner, is pursuing energy independence and becoming a model city by using renewable energy resources and energy conservation. The City has a commitment to produce 50 MW of renewable energy in San Diego within the next decade. In meeting this commitment, the City operates a gas utilization facility located in the Point Loma Waste Water Treatment Plant (PLWWTP). This cogeneration facility is powered by wastewater methane gas and generates 4.57 MW of electricity. In addition, PLWWTP employs a hydroelectric facility producing another 1.35 MW of power generated by the 100-foot drop of treated sewage flow exiting the plant into the ocean. Landfill methane gas produced by the set of digesters at the Metro Biosolids Center (MBC) from the City operated Miramar Landfill is captured and converted to produce 6.4 MW of electricity. Following the success of the MBC, the North City Water Reclamation Plant was built to produce 3.8 MW of energy from excess landfill gas. A third party partner produces power for the wastewater treatment operations and also sells excess electricity to the local utility. A total of 10.2 MW is produced from cogeneration as a result of these two facilities. The City of San Diego generates more than 125 million kWh of renewable power on an annual basis but only maintains REC ownership on 20.3 Million kWh because of incentive and tax policies that existed when the projects were developed. Approximately half of the 10.2 MW produced at the wastewater treatment plants is utilized on site. The City has 15 photovoltaic systems installed throughout the region on City-owned facilities capable of producing 2 MW that is used on site or net metered to the local utility.

Santa Cruz is an environmentally centered coastal community and the municipality has been committed to using renewable energy since 1982. As the municipality’s single largest energy consumer, the wastewater treatment facility has always been seen as a great opportunity for the utilization of onsite renewable energy. In 1991 the wastewater treatment facility began using its biogas to produce heat and electricity and has continued to upgrade this cogeneration system and install solar PV in order to offset its high power usage. The facility will continue to seek more viable renewable energy options and available upgrades to the cogeneration system in the future. “I have worked with the EPA in the past on energy saving programs and it is always an honor to be recognized by them” said Greg Galvin, Electrical Supervisor at the Facility. “Not only do we strive to use less energy each year, but by taking advantage of the technology for generating our own power from our process, our Facility contributes to the City’s Sustainability Plan. We also hope to send a message to the local community and around the globe that supporting clean sources of electricity is not only a worthy investment but also aids in mitigating the harmful effects of increased GHGs to help protect our sensitive environment.”

Nestled in the beautiful Finger Lakes region of upstate New York, the City of Ithaca is well known for its high quality of life, its diverse community, and natural beauty. The city government has a fundamental commitment to maintain, protect, and enhance these valuable resources, to assure the well-being of residents and other users. In the last few years, the City has recognized that the products and services it purchases, including energy, create social, environmental and economic impacts, and that it can use its buying power to promote a sustainable, economically viable future ― locally and nationally. Various steps have been taken in support of this vision, and specifically to reduce the city’s carbon footprint. One such action is the purchase of third-party certified renewable energy certificates (RECs) to provide 100 percent of the city’s electric load, starting in January 2012 (and replacing a previous contract for 5 percent of the electric supply).<br/><br/> Mayor Svante Myrick says, “I am very pleased we are able to make this significant commitment to the renewable energy market, as well as toward our carbon reduction goals, but this is just one part of the puzzle. We are also looking at different ways to expand our local on-site generation, based on renewable sources; this includes solar projects, opportunities for combined heat and power and district energy solutions, and more”.

The City of Las Vegas Sustainability Energy Strategy was adopted in part to develop the City’s renewable energy portfolio, reduce carbon emissions, and reduce overall utility costs. The City currently utilizes 3.3 megawatts of solar photovoltaic at its wastewater treatment plant. This single axis tracking system offsets 20 percent of the electricity needs of the facility, and a full six percent of the City’s total energy use. In addition to its solar plant, the City has increased its total installed capacity to 6.2 megawatts of solar for its City operations at 37 buildings, community centers, fire stations, and parks. Its newest green power site, a 40 kW solar covered parking lot at a community park, is expected to be operational in early 2016. Finally, in November 2015, the City announced that beginning in 2017, the City, through a Renewable Energy Agreement with the NV Energy, will receive energy produced by a solar facility under development near Boulder City (Boulder Solar I), coupled with power from NV Energy that already satisfies Nevada’s renewable portfolio standard allowing 100 percent of the City’s retail load to be served by renewable energy.

An island community of 22,000 residents, Mercer Island, Washington is recognized as a leader in the support and use of green power – a key aspect of the community’s overall stewardship of its environment. In 2012, a citizens’ commission led by the Mayor, city staff, and volunteers launched the “Green Power Challenge,” resulting in a 55 percent increase in program signups. Today, over 800 homes and businesses (7 percent of total accounts) purchase more than 6.5 million kilowatt-hours of green power annually. By exceeding its recruitment goal, the city won a grant in 2013 from its utility to fund a public solar PV installation at the Community Center. This demonstration project in turn spawned a residential, solar mass-installation campaign that resulted in 47 new installations and the addition of 320 kilowatts of generating capacity by the end of 2014. These efforts, combined with the city’s own green power purchases (a 35 percent offset), qualified Mercer Island as the first in the Seattle region to become an EPA Green Power Community, and ultimately led to its naming as a national 2013 Green Power Community of the Year.

Green Power Leadership Award 2003
http://moabcity.org/
The City of Moab, Utah, a 2003 Green Power Leadership Award winner, made a commitment to renewable energy in February 2002 by purchasing 68 MWh annually of wind power. To build upon the City's purchase, the Moab Blue Sky Community Challenge was created to encourage and motivate Moabites to demonstrate their commitment to renewable energy by purchasing one or more blocks of wind energy from the local utility. On April 22, 2003, the Moab Blue Sky Community Challenge began with a goal of signing up five percent of the area's residents and businesses by October 2003, a goal reached in a little more than one month. By year's end, nearly nine percent of Moab-area electric customers were purchasing the wind energy product (an additional 1,450 MWh) and nearly 1.5 percent of the community's total energy was coming from wind power. Rallying the community together behind clean renewable energy, the community's combined purchase has had significant environmental and educational benefits. In fact, two other prominent Utah communities have expressed interest in creating similar clean energy programs for their communities, and the Moab community created an outreach model that can be replicated across the country.

Located in the northern region of Los Angeles County, the City of Palmdale has enjoyed tremendous growth and prosperity over the last three decades. Its more than 153,000 residents enjoy a comfortable hometown feel with a strong family orientation, excellent education system and abundant recreational opportunities in a safe environment. <br/><br/> With over 300 days of sunshine per year, the City of Palmdale has demonstrated an exceptional dedication to renewable energy. The City has partnered with agencies to offer Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) programs for both residential and business facilities located in the City. Additionally, the City has entered a truly unique power purchase agreement to provide solar energy to its facilities. Winner of the American Public Works Association Southern California Chapter Facilities Project of the Year award, the 976 kilowatt (kW) system provides energy for two recreation centers, the library, a waterpark and several other facilities. What truly makes the system unique are two key factors, first the City retained the renewable energy certificates (RECs), which is not a common practice for such agreements. Also, the City had architectural features added to the system in order for it to match the nearby facilities and to not sacrifice aesthetics for sustainability.

The City of Pendleton was fortunate to have a council member that was very environmentally conscious and encouraged staff to take on the goal of becoming more environmentally sensitive. She pushed the Pacific Power Blue Sky program and then was very supportive when the staff recommended the solar installations. The city's solar installations include a 100 kW roof-mounted array at the water treatment plant and a 200 kW ground-mounted tracking system at the wastewater treatment plant. "If you do the right thing, your efforts will snowball. We start with a minor goal of becoming a Blue Sky city and now we have two solar installations and one more on the way. We have citizens talking about green power and taking action in their own homes. The citizens have new pride in their community since Pendleton became a leader in green power," said Larry Lehman, City Manager.

The City of Watervliet joined the Green Power Partnership in 2010 with onsite solar PV installations at the Hudson Shores Park, the Senior Center and on the fire station. Watervliet is also a leader in promoting renewable energy generation through its Climate Action Plan and the 10% Energy Challenge, which includes an opportunity for every home and business in the City to support a Green Power Community program. “Climate change is not a problem Watervliet can solve alone,” Mayor Mike Manning said, “but we believe we can trim our greenhouse gas emissions by 10 percent below 2008 levels by 2014 through the combination of renewable energy, energy efficiency and waste management.” Watervliet has made great strides toward making the city more green by doubling recycling collections, engaging an energy performance contractor for city operations and doubling the generation of hydro-electric power from the city’s municipal reservoir. Based on the success of a pilot program that diverted 5,765 pounds of organic waste from the city’s waste stream, Watervliet has secured grant funding to purchase its own anaerobic digester that would support more renewable energy to City operations.

In August 2013 Colby-Sawyer College again signed a three year contract to acquire renewable energy certificates (RECs) for 100 percent of its electricity usage (totaling approximately 3,620,361 kWh per year, which is up from our previous usage of 3,400,000 kWh.) The Scope 2 emissions created during this power generation accounted for 43 percent of the college’s total carbon footprint during the baseline Greenhouse Gas Inventory conducted by our students in 2008. When the college initially made the decision to purchase RECs in 2010 President Galligan had announced, “The college is extremely excited about this new contract because it helps us make huge positive strides in our goal to reduce our carbon footprint and live more sustainably.” He also mentioned that we had dreamed about, “someday creating our own renewable energy right here on campus.” Since then that dream has become a reality because at the end of 2012 Colby-Sawyer installed a demonstration-scale wind turbine and pole-mounted solar array, as well as a large, roof-mounted 127 kW solar PV system, which was one of the largest in the state of New Hampshire. We have also invested in a comprehensive, campus-wide energy efficiency project that stands to save the college approximately $140,000 annually.

Colorado State University has long been a leader in adopting environmentally friendly approaches to campus operations, from composting cafeteria waste to new construction which meets the highest sustainability standards. Today, the University continues to focus on these activities while also emphasizing research solutions to the problem of global sustainability and education of the green-collar workforce. On the University's Foothills Campus, CSU hosts a 5,300 kW solar electric system that provides over 30 percent of the electricity needs of that campus, but the renewable energy certificates (RECs) associated with the system’s output are conveyed to the local utility until 2030 when the RECs revert to the university. Among other green initiatives the University runs the state forest service and nursery, which produces more than 2 million seedling trees each year; and it developed its own wetlands to process plant waste from campus greenhouses. Also, CSU runs the Green Warrior campaign, a campus-wide campaign to encourage sustainable behaviors among students. Colorado State spinoff companies are helping to clean air in developing nations through development and distribution of clean burning stoves and devices to cut carbon emissions of motorcycle taxis.

The Columbia Association (CA) is a nonprofit public service corporation dedicated to providing the highest level of service and amenities to the approximately 100,000 residents of Columbia, MD. CA offers recreational, cultural and community services including a welcome center, an art center, three fitness facilities, an ice rink, an indoor swim center, and more than 20 neighborhood and community centers. <br /><br /> CA has made a strong commitment to sustainable energy management built on a foundation of aggressive energy conservation efforts coupled with sourcing or offsetting 100 percent of its electricity consumption from renewable sources. CA’s multifaceted renewable energy strategy includes: 1) a power purchase agreement with a 2 MW solar farm; 2) the procurement of certified renewable energy credits (RECs); and 3) onsite generation. <br /><br /> Solar power generated by a 2 MW solar farm supplies about 25 percent of CA’s annual electricity usage. Under the 20 year power purchase agreement (PPA) CA receives electricity through virtual aggregate net metering and solar renewable energy certificates (SRECs). The SRECs were innovatively swapped on the market to allow the developer to retain the high value of local SRECs while allowing CA to obtain the environmental offset. In conjunction with our electricity supply contract, CA secured American Wind™ RECs for the remaining 75 percent of our annual electricity usage. <br /><br /> CA leverages its position in the community to encourage residents and stakeholders to support green power. CA is leading by example with its green power efforts and also actively engaging the community by establishing programs to specifically promote green power. A solar cooperative was launched in 2015 to educate residents about solar power and provided a reliable solar installation pathway with discounted pricing and support of an energy advisor.

The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania is dedicated to creating a “Government That Works” for its citizens through finding ways to improve the economy, while at the same promoting environmental sustainability. In December of 2015 and February 2016, the commonwealth competitively bid and awarded the supply of 243,985 megawatt-hours (MWh) of Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) to be provided annually for calendar years 2016 and 2017. The quantities of RECs represent roughly 30% of the annual electricity usage for commonwealth’s owned building inventory. <br/><br/> The nearly 244 million megawatt-hours (MWh) of RECs purchased for 2016 would power an estimated 23,000 homes in Pennsylvania for a year. At a weighted average awarded price of $0.50 per 1 MWh REC, the purchase amounts to a total annual cost of $121,793. The funds dedicated to this purchase were made possible by more than $2 million in annual cost reductions achieved for calendar years 2016 through 2019 through Pennsylvania’s Department of General Services efforts to competitively procure electricity for commonwealth agencies in several bid events conducted during the fall of 2015. As an example, the allocated REC costs of $37,000 for the Department of Corrections as a percentage of dollars saved through competitive electric procurement is approximately 3%, of the $803,000 in anticipated annual savings. <br/><br/> Through this purchase, the commonwealth has solidified its commitment to support the use of cleaner, renewable energy. The RECs provided through this purchase are produced by wind power sources certified by Green-e – a leading independent certification and verification program for renewable energy in the U.S. With the 243,985 annual MWh quantities of Green-e certified RECs purchased, the commonwealth has now rejoined the EPA’s Green Power Partnership, a program that recognizes national leaders in the voluntary purchase of renewable energy. The commonwealth is also now the largest purchaser of renewable energy certificates among state governments participating in the Partnership. Previously, the commonwealth was a member of the Green Power Partnership from 2009 through 2011.

Congregation Beit Simchat Torah is New York City's synagogue serving gays, lesbians, bisexuals, transgender people, and their family and friends. Jewish tradition teaches to wisely shepherd and preserve the earth, and to protect the health of all. For that reason, the Congregation chose to use green power, which creates no greenhouse gases, no acid rain, and none of the emissions that cause health problems such as asthma, emphysema, lung cancer, birth defects and heart disease. The world's largest GLBTQ synagogue, CBST serves as a model for its community. It ran a campaign to encourage members to sign up for green power for their homes at the same time that the synagogue switched its facilities over to green power, and congregants were very receptive to the idea. Says Director of Operations Assaf Astrinsky, "Green power enables us to help make Jewish tradition meaningful in the lives of our congregants."

The "Net-Zero Energy" Project: Design a 100% on-site green energy system to manufacture our green bedding.<br /><br /> Since we manufacture green bedding using renewable and sustainable materials, it made good sense for us to come full-circle and install our own renewable energy system. Our goal was to design and install a 100% on-site renewable energy system, and CozyPure is proud to say “mission accomplished.” <br /><br /> CozyPure is now what’s called a "Net Zero Energy Building", and there aren't too many commercial buildings that can make that claim. In fact, we're one of the only green organic bedding manufacturers who has made the commitment to make our products with 100% renewable energy. First, we made sure we were highly energy-efficient with appliances, lighting and geothermal HVAC, R-25+ insulation, and reflection foil in our ceilings and walls. Next, we designed a system that generates both solar and wind to generate power that would meet and exceed our energy needs. The system was completed in early 2011, and we've been using zero electricity from the grid ever since.<br /><br /> Our system produces 89,400 kWh annually. Of that, we use approximately 84,000 kWh per year. We've opted for net-metering which means the excess energy we generate goes back to the power company.

Recent DZS sustainability efforts include discontinuing the sale of bottled water on Detroit Zoo grounds – keeping 60,000 plastic bottles out of the waste stream annually – and building the first zoo-based anaerobic digester in the country, which will annually convert more than 400 tons of animal manure into methane-rich gas to help power the Detroit Zoo’s animal hospital. Additionally, the DZS last year joined the growing list of companies and organizations taking action to reduce the impact of their energy use by powering Zoo operations with 100 percent renewable energy from wind farms. These sustainability initiatives are part of the DZS Greenprint ‒ a strategic plan to refine and improve daily practices and facilities, develop new policies and programs and improve green literacy and action in the community. “Our goal is to inspire others to join us on our green journey as we continuously look for ways to reduce our ecological footprint,” said DZS Executive Director and CEO Ron Kagan.

Dwight-Englewood School is a co-ed K-12 independent school in Englewood, New Jersey, with about 900 students from the metropolitan New York City area. The school has taken a number of steps to operate in a more environmentally sustainable manner, and to educate our students to become knowledgeable about environmental issues. We have decided to purchase Green-e certified clean energy RECs to cover our entire campus electricity consumption, roughly 3 million kilowatt-hours per year. The school wants to minimize its carbon footprint, as well as other impacts of energy production, and to model responsible behavior for our students and the rest of the school community. Students study a variety of environmental issues in their classes, ranging from first grade science studies to the Advanced Placement Environmental Science course, so at age-appropriate levels they understand and appreciate this important step the school has taken. We want our students to learn how to make sound choices related to the major environmental challenges the world faces, and to become leaders in dealing with those challenges.

Earth Island® is the manufacturing company founded to produce Follow Your Heart's® unique line of vegetarian and natural foods and, for over thirty years, has been committed to demonstrating ethical and social leadership, while adhering to the environmental responsibilities of operating a business. In keeping with our mission and values, every effort was made to maximize conservation of natural resources into the design of our facility -- including skylights, recycled carpeting, tankless hot water, energy efficient lighting systems, and environmentally friendly refrigeration. The crowning achievement of this focus however, is our solar panel array, or photovoltaic system, on the building's roof. The rooftop solar energy system is comprised of 756 solar panels, each capable of generating 150 watts, for a total of 113 kW (kilowatts). In addition to shading the building from the scorching Chatsworth sun - and further reducing the need for cooling - the system is designed to supply nearly half of our electrical energy needs. Earth Island is one of the first fully solar powered food plant in the United States. Today, Earth Island generates enough solar energy to power its facility, as well as sell energy back to the city.

Eastern University, in St. Davids, Pennsylvania, through a student initiative supported by the administration, made the decision to purchase renewable energy credits matching 100 percent of its electricity use from emission-free, locally generated wind energy. The student group generated campus-wide awareness and support to help pass a referendum. This referendum enabled students to contribute to the wind energy purchase through their annual tuition payments. Of approximately 1,500 full-time undergraduate students, 1,047 choose to spend an additional $24 to purchase wind energy. The University also recently contracted to purchase 66 Solar Renewable Energy Credits (SRECs) annually from the Keystone Solar Project in Pennsylvania that recently came online. Eastern also has an onsite solar electricity generation array (rated at 54 KW) on the roof of one of a classroom buildings and purchases the power it produces.

EMC Corporation is a global leader in enabling businesses and service providers to transform their operations and deliver IT as a service. We recognize and embrace our role to minimize the impact of climate change by developing increasingly energy-efficient products and solutions for our customers. By creating more efficient products that have widespread applications, we can affect almost every sector of the economy touched by IT. <br/><br/> Electricity consumption accounts for 90 percent of EMC’s global Scope 1 and 2 greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions; consequently, reducing our electricity consumption is the primary focus of our overall GHG management strategy. Improving energy efficiency is a strategic priority in our operations, including our data centers, labs, and manufacturing plants; in the design and operation of our products; and in our value chain. Energy efficiency presents one of the greatest opportunities to help reduce GHG emissions and mitigate climate change — both for EMC and our customers. <br/><br/> In 2014, EMC announced new environmental sustainability 2020 targets that include fulfilling at least 20% of our global electricity needs from renewable sources and realizing a 40% absolute reduction of global Scopes 1 and 2 GHG emissions below 2010 levels. These mid-term targets align with our longstanding goals to obtain 50% of our global electricity needs from renewable sources by 2040 and realize an 80% absolute reduction of global Scopes 1 and 2 GHG emissions below 2000 levels by 2050. The basis of our targets is an understanding of the responsibility that businesses have to minimize GHG emissions and help mitigate climate change. The 2020 targets are aligned with the President’s Climate Action Plan and the CDP/World Wildlife Fund report “3% Solution.”

The Empire State Building (ESB), the world's most famous office building, has become one of New York City’s largest commercial purchaser of renewable energy. "Clean energy and our nearly 40% reduced consumption of watts and BTUs gives us a competitive advantage in attracting the best credit tenants at the best rents," said Anthony E. Malkin, Chairman, President, and CEO of Empire State Realty Trust. "Our program of innovation at ESB shows simple, replicable, non-proprietary steps for other landlords to follow to be more energy efficient, cleaner and greener." The iconic landmark has signed a multi-year contract to purchase renewable energy to meet all of its electricity use. <br/><br/> ESB's green power purchase further reinforces the building’s groundbreaking $20 million energy efficiency retrofit work that was announced by former President Bill Clinton and former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg in 2009.

The Encina Wastewater Authority (EWA) is a public Joint Powers Authority located in the Southern California City of Carlsbad that provides regulatory and wastewater treatment services to approximately 400,000 North San Diego County residents and industrial users. EWA is guided in principle by three goals: protecting North San Diego County’s ocean environment; producing and using renewable resources from the waste stream it treats; and giving the communities it serves a “good deal.” EWA accomplishes this through a number of initiatives that include producing green power from biogas generated by the treatment of wastewater solids. In April 2015 EWA began accepting Fats, Oils and Grease (FOG) collected from food establishment grease interceptors to generate additional biogas. The additional gas reduces the amount of natural gas used onsite to heat dry biosolids. The EWA produced over 11.9 million kWh of electricity using biogas, saving ratepayers over $2 million annually.

Evergreen Credit Union (ECU), based in Neenah, Wisconsin is a federally-insured, member owned, financial institution that provides financial services to individuals who live or work in Winnebago, Outagamie, Waupaca, and Waushara counties. ECU purchases 100% green power generated through a mix of wind, solar, and biomass. The biggest benefit of purchasing green power is that we were able to measurably lower the carbon footprint of the credit union’s operations. A lower carbon output benefits not only our members, but the entire community. Mike Brandt, President/CEO of Evergreen Credit Union says; “Evergreen Credit Union is committed to the economic and environmental wellbeing of our members and our communities. Purchasing green power is one way that we meet those commitments and grow our mission towards overall environmental sustainability.”

Falling Sky Brewing is located in Eugene, Oregon, in the heart of the Willamette Valley. We celebrate our place with everything we do. Falling Sky brews, bakes, cures, and makes everything in house with the finest local ingredients. We also partner with many great local organizations that protect and preserve our land and water. We try to create little waste - we do not serve anything in a container, we compost all food waste, and give all of our spent grain to a local egg farmer. When the opportunity to offset our energy usage to help promote clean energy demand arose - we jumped on it! “We all have a vested interest to protect our land and water - it not only protects us, but leads to better food and tastier beer,” says Rob Cohen, co-owner. Green energy is a way to facilitate this.

In August 2005, FedEx Express activated California’s then-largest corporate solar power installation at its Oakland, California West Coast Hub. The system reduces demand on the utility grid and serves as an additional source of power capacity to benefit businesses and residents of California. This 904 kilowatt photovoltaic system has produced over 11.4 GWh from its installation through May 2016. Together with the Facility’s 500kW solid oxide fuel cell system, alternative energy systems supply 47% of the electricity for the Facility.<br /><br /> Currently, FedEx Corporation has 15 solar energy producing systems onsite at domestic locations in California, New Jersey, New York, Maryland and Texas, and international locations in Germany, France, Belgium and Japan with an energy generation capacity of more than 5.5 MW. Together, these facilities produced greater than 11 million kWh of electricity in FY15 and avoided 4,613 metric tons of CO2e emissions during that year. "These solar installations advance our commitment to connect the world in responsible and resourceful ways," said Mitch Jackson, Vice President Environmental Affairs and Sustainability, FedEx Corp.<br /><br /> Notably, the Solar Energy Industries Association ranked FedEx 12th for capacity and 18th for number of sites in this year’s “Solar Means Business” report. To help accelerate renewable energy procurement, we joined the Rocky Mountain Institute Business Renewables Center in FY15.

Taking an active role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and energy costs, Tompkins County since 2000 has set emissions reduction goals and tracked both County government and community emissions. The County’s Comprehensive Plan commits to reducing 2008 emissions levels by at least 80% by 2050. Among the County’s many initiatives to reduce energy use in its government facilities and operations— purchasing Green-e-certified Renewable Energy Credits to offset 100% of its electrical energy use; installing solar panels on nearly all County facilities through long-term lease agreements, as well as a 147kW solar photovoltaic system on the roof of the County Library; significantly upgrading energy efficiency of government facilities via energy performance contracts; adopting green fleet, green building, and other green government policies; as founding partner of the Municipal Electric and Gas Alliance, piloting a program to provide long-term, price-certain electric energy to members from renewable sources; transitioning to biodiesel for the County Highway fleet; becoming a NYS Climate Smart Community; and studying feasibility of creating a microgrid for resiliency of the airport and county emergency and health facilities in the event of a prolonged power outage. Tompkins County and its municipalities lead the state in installed solar capacity in government facilities.

Brookeville is a historic Maryland community founded in 1794 and incorporated in 1808. During the War of 1812, when British troops burned the White House, President James Madison sought refuge in Brookeville on August 26, 1814. Today the Town of Brookeville has 55 individual properties and approximately 135 residents. The municipality and its residents use renewable energy for about half of their total power usage. Several years ago the Brookeville Commissioners appointed an Energy Advisory Committee to investigate ways in which the town might support sustainable growth and reduce its energy consumption. An outgrowth of that committee’s activities led to a sustained effort on the part of several of its members to challenge both the municipality and the community to purchase wind energy. Recent pricing which resulted in lower cost for wind energy has made that effort easier. Michael Acierno, President of the Commissioners has stated that “being a member of the EPA’s Green Power Partnership provides Brookeville the opportunity to more widely promote our commitment to renewable energy sources and the resulting environmental and economic advantages”.

Sonoma County has long been a leader in responding to climate change. The County’s General Services Department houses the Sonoma County Energy Independence Program, an early innovator in Property Assessed Clean Energy (PACE) financing; the Sonoma County Energy Watch program, a local government partnership with PG&E, which provides energy efficiency services to government agencies, nonprofits, and businesses; and the Sonoma Green Business Program, which recognizes businesses that protect, preserve, and sustain our environment.<br/><br/> The county is also home to a number of other groundbreaking efforts. In 2014, the White House recognized the Sonoma County Regional Climate Protection Authority as one of 16 national Climate Action Champions for bringing together the County and all of the local municipalities to collaboratively work on addressing climate issues. Also, Sonoma Clean Power, one of California’s first community choice aggregation programs, is now in its third year. Additionally, the Sonoma County Water Agency has achieved its commitment to operate a carbon free water system by 2015. The County vehicle fleet was recognized in 2015 as the nation's greenest government fleet. Finally, the non-profit Center for Climate Protection blazed the trail by developing the county’s first Community Climate Action Plan and convincing all ten local governments to adopt the boldest GHG emissions reduction targets in the U.S. at the time.

Southwestern University is a liberal arts university with the core purpose of “fostering a liberal arts community whose values and actions encourage contributions toward the well-being of humanity.” In 2010, Southwestern signed an agreement that will enable it to meet all its electric needs for the next 18 years with wind power. The initial contract is for five years and is renewable through 2028. The agreement will help Southwestern toward its long-term goal of being carbon-neutral. The university is committed to carbon neutrality through the American College and University Presidents’ Climate Commitment, which formally commits campuses to eliminate their greenhouse gas emissions and net contributions to climate change. The signing of the President’s Climate Commitment and the university’s commitment to green energy were both student-driven initiatives. Having the utility price locked in for the next 18 years will also help the university considerably in its strategic planning. <br /><br /> “In recent weeks, much attention has been focused on how the world can reduce greenhouse gas emissions. By taking the bold step to obtaining all of their electricity from wind power, Southwestern University becomes a leader in showing the nation how it can be done,” said Paul Rowland, former executive director of the Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education. <br /><br /> The EPA says Southwestern’s yearly green power purchase of more than 16 million kWh is equivalent to electricity consumption of more than 1,500 average American homes annually.

Forest County Potawatomi Community tradition and history teaches a strong commitment to protecting and preserving the natural environment, both on the reservation and throughout the world. Consistent with its long-standing goal of reducing its energy use and carbon footprint, the Community has undertaken significant energy efficiency and carbon reduction initiatives, many through its Project Greenfire program. Quarterly assessments of the Community's energy usage and greenhouse gas emissions show the success of these efforts. In the twelve month period ending December 31, 2013, the Community's major energy-using facilities consumed 13.9% less energy per gross square foot and had 22.25% less associated carbon emissions per gross square foot compared to the baseline year of 2007. Also, the Community is seeking to become energy independent by using only renewable carbon-neutral or carbon-free resources. The Community installed solar panels on a Milwaukee administration building, has developed and is operating (through its subsidiary FCPC Renewable Generation, LLC) a biodigester and 2 MW biogas generation facility in Milwaukee, and is in the final stage of the community-wide rooftop solar project, a biomass feasibility on the reservation, and a geothermal project. Not yet energy independent, the Community acquires renewable energy certificates (RECs) from wind energy resources to more than match its electricity use.

Big Bend Resorts currently purchases 1 million kilowatt hours annually representing a 81 percent commitment to green power through the use of wind renewable energy certificates, a resource that does not pollute and will not run out. This use of green power reduces conventional electricity consumption, diminishes carbon dioxide impact, and reduces fossil fuel air pollutants --- common goals at all Forever Resorts property holdings.<br /><br />Corporate wind power purchases such as this help set a standard for the lodging industry and represent a natural extension of the Forever Resorts commitment to sustainable business practices. Contracting to buy renewable energy indicates another step forward in reducing the company's organizational footprint.<br /><br />Because energy use is such a significant contributor to environmental impacts --- especially in the lodging industry --- wind power purchases call attention to the issue for others, raising public awareness of --- and helping create more demand for --- green power.<br /><br />Big Bend Resorts also works with National Park Service personnel on other innovative energy conservation measures by recently installing solar lighting through the exterior of buildings creating "Dark Skies" for star gazing in the Park and further reducing electric consumption by 90 percent.

Fox Run Vineyards overlooks one of the deepest parts of Seneca Lake with fifty acres of east facing vineyards on glacial soils; the winery produces a remarkable range of vinifera wines with a dedication to and focus on Riesling and Chardonnay for the last 25 years. <br /><br /> At Fox Run Vineyards, our goal is to provide visitors with one of the best winery experiences in the Finger Lakes. Our belief is that this experience encompasses not only the quality of our wines and beauty of our vineyard and tasting room, but also the educational opportunity presented to all visitors and the quality of service provided during each and every visit. <br /><br /> In 2015, the installation of a 576 panel, 150-kilowatt system on the property will generate 100% of the power used on the 100-acre farm. The installation of solar power is another step for Fox Run to become more sustainable. We are a family owned company and by reducing our carbon footprint, we are creating a cleaner environment for the next generation. New customers are visiting our Tasting Room because of our focus on solar energy. It’s a great feeling when you see $0 on your monthly utility bill.

On February 29, 2012 nine university presidents in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area joined Mayor Vincent C. Gray to sign the District of Columbia Mayor’s College and University Sustainability Pledge (CUSP). The goal was for the District of Columbia to be able to declare itself the “Greenest College Town in America.” <br/><br/> The approach to sustainability was the first of its kind in the nation. When it was signed, no other U.S. city had formed such a compact between its entire higher education sector and its local government to advance sustainability. The pledge is an agreement by the schools to pursue a myriad of sustainability measures related to energy use and buildings, green education, transportation, waste reduction, grounds maintenance, purchasing, and the management and reporting of progress. Each signatory selected its own commitments and goals for sustainability.<br/><br/> Gallaudet committed to the following sustainability goals to be implemented: <br/> •Achieve (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) LEED Silver standards or equivalent in all new construction and major renovations.<br/> •Reduce energy use in buildings by 3 percent per square foot, compared to the FY 2009 baseline year.<br/> •Purchase or generate at least 13 percent of total energy consumed from renewable sources.<br/> •Reduce potable water use by 3 percent per square foot compared to the FY 2009 baseline year<br/>

General Motors Co. and its partners produce vehicles in 30 countries. The company uses more than 106 megawatts of solar, landfill gas, and waste-to-energy at its facilities today. Later this year, GM will start to use 34 MW of wind to help power four of its Mexico facilities’ electricity needs. Also in 2016, GM's Arlington Aseembly Plant in Texas will start to source 30 MW of wind energy to power over half of its operations, enough to manufacture 125,000 trucks per year. <br /><br /> GM is committed to using 125 MW of renewable energy by 2020 not only because it can lead to cost savings, but because a diverse energy portfolio reduces risk to the company. Most importantly, it further reduces GM’s carbon footprint and impact on climate change. In the last year alone, the company reduced its energy intensity by 5.6 percent per vehicle produced. <br /><br /> GM is one of the largest industrial users of landfill gas in the United States. Additionally, GM leads the automotive industry in solar energy use in the United States, according to the Solar Means Business report released by the Solar Energy Industries Association. GM is also a founding member of the Business Renewables Center, a collaborative platform aiming to accelerate corporate renewable energy procurement with a goal of nearly doubling U.S. capacity of wind and solar energy by 2025.

Founded in 1789, Georgetown University is the oldest Catholic and Jesuit university in the United States. As one of the largest users of green power among the colleges and universities in the EPA's Green Power Partnership program, Georgetown demonstrates that even the most historic institutions can be forward-looking on energy. Georgetown is committed to cutting its carbon footprint in half by 2020 from 2006 levels, and has already reduced emissions over 20 percent through a combination of demand reduction, efficiency, and use of cleaner fuels. <br /><br /> Georgetown purchases more than 150 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) of renewable energy certificates (RECs) annually, equal to more than 100 percent of its electricity use on its main, medical, east, and law campuses. This purchase of renewable power, and the University's ongoing sustainable energy programs led to Georgetown's recognition as an EPA Green Power Partner of the Year in 2013. <br /><br /> The University demonstrates its sustainable energy leadership in a number of ways on campus and in our local, national, and global communities. In the spring of 2014, the $5 million Georgetown Energy Prize was launched to tap the imagination, creativity, and spirit of competition between communities across the country toward development of sustainable energy-saving innovations. In 2013, Georgetown launched a new on-site renewable energy project through a collaborative student-staff initiative, installing 18 kW of solar panels on a block of historic University-owned row houses - the first campus project of its kind in DC. In total, the project is expected to provide 19,711 kWh each year and reduce more than 600,000 pounds of carbon pollution over the 20-year life of the project. Under the framework of the District of Columbia's College and University Sustainability Pledge (CUSP), Georgetown is also collaborating with the DC Sustainable Energy Utility to roll out new energy efficiency retrofits in our central heating and cooling plant and campus buildings. These retrofits are projected to save about 580,000 kWh annually, which is enough energy to power about 52 typical US homes.

We are a small family-owned winery / brewery with four acres of vineyards. We feature wood-fired brick oven pizza and a 200 ft observation deck. We use 30,000+ kWh of green power annually. It is generated from a 10 kW Bergey Wind Turbine and a 20 kW ninety panel solar array. There were two main components behind our decision to switch to green power; our desire for a self-sufficient business, and the availability of Federal and State grants. During our switch to green power, we learned that if you are applying for grants, it is very helpful to hire a professional grant writer. Our biggest benefits are saving the cost of purchasing electricity from AEP and the satisfaction of utilizing a renewable resource. “Green Power is renewable, sustainable, and gratifying.” - John Nicolozakes, Owner.

Since Geppetto Catering started our business in 1989, we made a corporate decision to encourage our clients to use recyclable and compostable products at all of our customer’s catered events. Our internal operations are now 100% green. In addition to being powered by wind energy, we recycle all of our cans, bottles, plastics, paper, and cardboard. The remainder of our trash, which includes eating utensils, serving platters, and leftover food, is turned into compost, or material that is taken from decomposed organic items and used for improving soil quality, wetland restoration, and erosion control. Our cooking oils are recycled for the production of biodiesel fuel, and we have a self-contained grease trap at our building that collects grease and prevents it from entering the water table. <br /><br /> Geppetto Catering is proud to be a socially responsible company, because we believe it is the right thing to do. When you work with us, you can take comfort knowing that in addition to wonderful food and service, nothing goes to waste!"

Google’s mission is to organize the world’s information and make it universally accessible and useful. The company works hard to minimize the environmental impact of its services and has been a carbon neutral company since 2007. Google builds some of the world’s most energy efficient data centers; its facilities consume 50 percent less energy than a typical data center. Google also procures large volumes of renewable power. As of April 2016, the company has signed 15 long-term agreements for more than 2,000 megawatts (MW) of wind and solar energy, which is enough energy to power approximately 670,000 U.S. households. For any emissions Google cannot eliminate directly, it purchases high quality carbon offsets -- which brings its total carbon footprint to zero. Google also has committed nearly $2.5 billion to renewable energy projects. When added up, these projects represent a total capacity of over 3.7 gigawatts (GW), and produce far more electricity than Google uses. To put this in context, this electricity is equivalent to that consumed by 1,000,000 U.S. homes.

Goshen College has a long history of sustainability work and education. In 2007, President Jim Brenneman signed the Presidents’ Climate Initiative, which commits Goshen College to work toward climate neutrality.<br /><br />"We did that because we are very concerned about life on this planet, it was one more way we can care for the world and it was part of our broader ecological stewardship commitment," Brenneman said. "Goshen College, like the Mennonite Church which we are a part of, has always been committed to being global citizens. The roots of this ecological stewardship journey at Goshen College is Christian faith and the belief that God calls us to care for all of creation."<br /><br />Goshen College seeks to be a leader in environmental sustainability and to model a safe and effective way for society to move from dependency on fossil fuel-based energy sources that have proven to be so destructive to the environment. Since 2005, the college has reduced consumption of natural gas by 27% and electricity by 32%. By agreeing to purchase 100% of its electricity from renewable sources, Goshen College will reduce its remaining carbon footprint by about 45%.

Grace Church School (GCS) works towards reducing their carbon footprint on many levels. GCS receives all of its energy through renewable sources. The school is actively looking for ways to reduce its energy use. The school participates in the city recycling and composting program, in the interschool programs with the New York Association of Independent Schools and the Green Schools Alliance. GCS seeks to educate the community about behavioral changes that can impact energy use. The school's switch to green power and energy reduction has not only reduced the school's carbon footprint, it saved the community money. <br /><br /> "Throughout the school, students have designed reminders on laminated paper, located on light switches and monitors and high-traffic areas, reminding students and adults to switch off the lights when not in use. The children who join our middle school Green Team, as well the the 7th grade Sustainability Class and the 9th grade City and Sustainability class, have been working on understanding the energy-use relationships between the classrooms, the whole campus, and the community; trying to create positive impacts where they can. Our kitchens have reduced energy use and earned a Green Restaurant Certification. We have a high school service learning programs that encourages students working on green projects to mentor younger community members in developing more sustainable habits. We have added two Tower Gardens and a Green Roof to our science program." -Kim Chaloner, Dean of Community Life

Great Big Pictures, Inc. is a producer of large-format display graphics. The company purchases renewable energy through their utility provider equivalent to 25% of their electricity consumption. This decision was motivated by its company-wide initiative to cut the company’s carbon footprint and simultaneously support local renewable energy activities (and the educational and employment opportunities that come with them). Great Big Pictures saw that through their green power purchase, they could help build relationships with local utilities and sustainability groups while promoting green power to its customer base. "Staying green is important to our clients, our employees, and our management team. Green power helps us stay current on the latest options for responsible energy use," said Alice Torti, C.E.O.

Beginning in 2006, Green Mountain College (GMC) helped launch Vermont’s innovative Cow Power program. Through the Cow Power program, the College currently purchases a 50% of the power for most of the small buildings of campus. College investments in solar power include a student- installed 3.8 kW array on the campus farm, a 5.8 kW solar electric vehicle charging station, a 150 kW solar array located offsite and additional power purchase agreements supporting the development of green power in the region. <br /><br /> Green Mountain College has a goal of 100% renewable energy by 2020 as outlined in the College’s Sustainability 2020 strategic plan. The College is following a roadmap to this goal created though classes featuring a heavy investment short term investment in power-purchase agreements that will slowly be phased out over time as more renewable energy is installed on campus by students. <br /><br /> Green Mountain College is the most highly awarded college in the nation for sustainability. GMC uses sustainability as the organizing principle for its undergraduate and graduate program curricula and operations. It was the first college in the nation to achieve climate neutrality through campus-wide efficiency, adoption of clean energy, and purchase of local carbon offsets.

Grosvenor Market has been getting all of its electricity needs through renewable energy credits (RECs). The driving factor behind the company’s switch to green power was their wish to become a more environmentally-conscious business. Grosvenor Market also strives to stay green in other ways such as recycling plastics, cardboard, as well as paper products. According to Scot Shuck, the owner, the move to green power was a "no brainer." According to Shuck, "The biggest benefit we're seen so far since switching to green power is the opportunity to educate and inform our customers (when they ask) about the positive impacts of using green power." Additionally, one beneficial surprise has been "the affordability of the switch to green power: we're very happy with the overall costs."

H&M is a leading global fashion company, with a business concept of offering fashion and quality at the best price in a sustainable way. Ours is a relatively low-carbon business, but the consequences of climate changes are as likely to affect us as everyone else on our planet, including our suppliers, colleagues and our customers. So it is essential that we do everything we can to reduce climate impact. In our own operations, which we can influence and control ourselves, this means nothing less than striving for the lowest climate impact possible. <br /><br /> Our main focus is to further improving energy efficiency in our stores, because this is where more than 80% of our greenhouse gas emissions come from. We want to be as energy savvy as possible and simply put, we believe the best electricity is that which is never used. However, for the electricity use which we cannot avoid, we made the decision to shift to renewable sources, wherever this is credibly available in the market. This way, we will reduce our emissions through structural and lasting change and do our part in what science-based target setting tells us is needed for keeping the global average temperature below the 2°C increase expected by 2050.

HARBEC, Inc. was formed in 1977 by toolmaker Bob Bechtold and has grown to become a full-service supplier of plastic injection molded parts to many Fortune 500 customers. In 2004 HARBEC was awarded an EPA Green Power Leadership Award. Since then HARBEC has continuously improved its company-wide energy performance while growing its business through efforts such as: <br /><br /> - In 2011 HARBEC completed installation of an 850 kW on-site wind generator.<br /> - In 2013 HARBEC attained ISO 50001/SEP Platinum and Better Plants – Challenge Partner. <br /> - In 2014 HARBEC achieved Carbon Neutrality. <br /> - In 2015 the NYS Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) <br />awarded HARBEC an Environmental Excellence Award for innovation in achieving carbon neutrality. <br /> - In 2015 HARBEC pursued a $2M upgrade of its combined heat and power (CHP) facility to achieve even greater operating efficiencies and cost savings. The upgrade project incorporated 8 new 65 kW Capstone microturbines (with a total rated capacity of 520 kW’s). HARBEC also retained 10 of its original CNG fueled 30 kW microturbines. Total maximum potential of the new CHP system is 820 kW. <br /><br /> HARBEC has integrated onsite wind generation and CHP system (operating on thermal priority) into a renewable and clean energy microgrid. HARBEC's innovative deployment and integration of renewable and alternative energy technologies has enabled the business to achieve fixed energy costs and increased energy utilization. Approximately 60% of HARBEC’s electrical power is provided by its two wind turbines and 20% is generated from CHP. The balance (20%) of electrical power HARBEC needs is purchased from 100% green power sources. To achieve carbon neutrality, HARBEC purchases carbon credits from Bonneville Environmental Foundation to offset 100% of the CNG used to operate their CHP plant and fuels used to operate their vehicle fleet. HARBEC also offers its employees a 50% subsidy for buying utility-supplied green power at their residences.

Harmoni International Spice is a family-owned business established in 1989 and has over two decades of experience as a grower, processor, exporter, and distributor, specializing in an extensive array of garlic and spices. We have a solar-powered warehouse with solar panels on our roof that generates more than 250,000 kWh annually. Since we have a 5,000-square-foot cooler in our facility, we wanted to have solar energy offset our high electrical usage. We also changed all of our lights to motion sensor lighting to increase energy lighting efficiency. <br /><br /> As a company, we fully support the renewable energy development, and we want to demonstrate environmental leadership in our industry by going green. The process of going solar powered wasn’t easy due to the permitting process, but now that we’ve been at our location for more than a year, we are very happy we made the decision to go solar. Not only has our building become more energy efficient and our electrical costs extremely low, we are also very proud to reduce our carbon footprint on the environment. <br /><br /> “The decision to have Harmoni International Spice solar powered was an easy one to make; solar power is a clean, non-polluting and environmentally friendly way to save on electricity usage, and it allows us to support the renewable energy development,” Sherri Zhou, Property Manager

Founded in 1990, Heartland Community College is the youngest public community college in Illinois. The affordable, two-year, open admissions community college focuses on student success, community partnerships and fiscal responsibility. <br /><br /> Heartland Community College generates an estimated 60 percent of its own electricity through an on-site 1.65 megawatt (MW) wind turbine. In 2006, the Board of Trustees adopted the vision of a wind turbine as part of the Campus Master Plan. This vision was consistent with the College’s strategic commitment to environmental and fiscal stewardship and would provide a “classroom” for students preparing for the new green economy. After six years of attaining grant funds to offset a portion of the cost, identifying a performance contract partner, conducting a wind feasibility study, identifying a site location, and finding a company that would sell a single turbine, the turbine was erected in April 2012. Since the installation of the turbine, the College has offered a wind tower rescue and competent climber training program in the turbine and will be sharing generation data on an energy dashboard that can also be used in classroom lessons. <br /><br /> “The turbine is one more manifestation of Heartland’s long standing commitment to achieving energy independence,” said Mary Beth Trakinat, VP of Continuing Education and Advancement. According to College President Rob Widmer, the turbine has also regularly outperformed the College’s expectations.

Hobart and William Smith Colleges are independent liberal arts colleges with around 2,300 undergraduate students located on the northshore of Seneca Lake in Geneva, NY. The Colleges have been purchasing wind renewable energy credits since 2002 and were the first institute of higher education in New York to use wind power as an alternative energy source. In November 2011, Hobart and William Smith Colleges committed to cover 100 percent of its electricity demand through a wind energy purchase, making HWS the first small liberal arts college in New York to be powered solely by wind. "This is an exciting and significant milestone in our effort to reduce the Colleges' impact on the environment and achieve climate neutrality by 2025," says HWS President Mark D. Gearan. "And like many good ideas at Hobart and William Smith, this one came directly from our students." The renewable energy purchasing review and recommendation was initiated by Maeve Donnelly '13 and Noah Lucas '13. After working on a project analyzing alternative energy options, the two submitted a proposal on wind energy to the President's Climate Task Force, made up of students, faculty and staff. Environmental sustainability is a core value at HWS. With a unique program that allows students and faculty to use the physical campus as a laboratory to explore environmental impact mitigation strategies, the HWS Sustainability Program enables and encourages students to link classroom learning to real world application, which plays a direct role in the environmental performance of the Colleges.

We are sourcing the equivalent of all of our electricity from wind power in an effort to reduce our negative impact on the environment –- and we love doing it because we sleep a bit better at night knowing we’re making this commitment! We found the process very straightforward and easy. We hope our and others’ willingness to pay for renewable energy will send a message to other consumers and to government officials that “we, the people” see the need to develop additional renewable energy sources and delivery systems. <br /><br /> Cheers to the future! <br /><br /> -- Carol Cochran, co-owner

Houghton College provides an academically challenging, Christ-centered education in the liberal arts and sciences to students from diverse traditions and economic backgrounds. As a Christian institution, caring for God’s creation forms an important part of our institutional identity. In April of 2015 Houghton went live with a 2.6 megawatt solar array which will produce approximately 2,900,000 kWh per year--or roughly 45% of Houghton’s annual electrical usage. Our primary driver for becoming a Green Power Partner is the desire to match our actions with our values. Through clean, renewable energy we are able to honor God’s creation, care for our global neighbors, take responsibility for our energy supply, educate our students on the value of clean energy, and save money. In fact, Houghton’s solar array will save more than $119,000 per year and $4.5 million over the next 25 years! The greatest benefit afforded by our solar array has been the opportunity to education the community about the importance of clean power generation and how environmental stewardship fits with faithful Christian living.

In Clover shifted to power produced by 100 percent wind energy. By choosing clean, renewable, wind-generated electricity for our business, we are reducing our carbon "pawprint" and helping the planet. Based on EPA Power Profiler statistics, In Clover's shift to renewable wind power has the following environmental benefits every year: 4,886 lbs. of carbon dioxide avoided, 4,800 miles not driven, and 2/3 acres of trees planted. <br /><br /> At In Clover, we strive to reduce our carbon "pawprint" in many ways. In Clover uses environmentally friendly cleaning supplies in our facility. In the warehouse, In Clover reuses shipping pallets, boxes, and packing material from our company and from other companies in our community. The dogs that come to work with employees happily help to reduce waste daily by eating any animal wellness product that accidentally gets dropped on the floor during packaging! “Preventing waste, reusing, and recycling not only benefits the environment we all live in, but allows our products to remain the best value”. Rebecca Rose, founder of In Clover, makers of Animal Wellness Products.

Intel Corporation, a world leader in silicon innovation, develops technologies, products and initiatives to continually advance how people work and live. Currently, Intel purchases more than 3.4 billion kilowatt-hours a year of renewable energy certificates, generated from wind, solar, geothermal, low impact hydro, and biomass sources, all third-party certified. In addition, Intel has facilitated 18 on-site solar plants at several Intel facilities. The installed solar capacity is approximately 7,000 kW and growing. Intel's purchase has the equivalent environmental impact of taking more than 455,000 passenger cars off the road each year, or avoiding the amount of electricity needed to power more than 327,000 average American homes annually, per the EPA calculator. Intel Director, Global Utilities and Infrastructure, Marty Sedler says, "Our renewable purchase is just one part of a multi-faceted approach to protect the environment, and one that we hope spurs additional development and demand for renewable energy." Intel continues to install new generation pilot projects around the world as well as design all new facilities to a minimum of LEED silver.

iStoreGreen is the first 'green' certified storage facility in New York City. The organization purchases renewable energy to cover all of its energy use. It seems the building, which was recycled from a 1908 warehouse, always wanted to be green. Recently, it was discovered that an early energy system in the building is cogeneration, which converts one fuel source simultaneously into both thermal (steam, hot water, hot air) and electrical power, and almost doubles the efficiency of traditional coal-fired electrical plants. The system is still in use in parts of the building. <br/> <br/> iStoreGreen has become known for being green in an array of smart and creative ways, offering sustainable materials like biodegradable packing peanuts, clean reused packing boxes, and alternatives to bubble wrap like shredded paper from the office's paper shredder, and a room for those who store to place discarded items that are given to local charity, rather than thrown into dumpsters and then landfills as with other storage spaces. An eco-tote full of green products is given to new customers, and community outreach projects educate about going green. <br/> <br/> iStoreGreen works with the Nature Conservancy, recently providing for 500 new trees; a certificate is available to customers letting them know that their business is helping trees grow.

At J&J Flooring Group, we’ve worked hard to make energy-saving habits part of our every day routine. Every time we turn off another light or power down a piece of unused equipment, we know we’re adding to our growing energy savings. We also know big reductions often require big investments as well as small. In 2015, we made some notable improvements to our energy efficiency, including reducing dyehouse energy use by five billion BTUs annually and upgrading our extrusion processes to reduce energy use. <br /><br /> And with the increased use of on-site renewable energy an equally important element of our 20/20 goals, we also invested significant time and research into new avenues for integrating alternatively sourced energy into our consumption portfolio. In the meantime, we have been purchasing Renewable Energy Credits (RECs) since 2009. <br /><br /> In 2015 we purchased 14.3 MM kWh of RECs, representing more than 50% of our total annual electricity demand. <br /><br /> Learn more about J&J Flooring Group's Environmental and Energy commitments at http://www.jj-invision.com/sustainability.

Founded in 1982 by Jess S. Jackson, Jackson Family Wines (JFW) was created with a single-minded vision: it takes world-class vineyards to make world-class wines. The company is inspired by Jackson’s goal to encourage innovative advances in land management and winemaking methods to remain a successful family-owned and values-driven business. <br /><br /> JFW is one of the most sustainable American winemakers, with the long-term goal of reducing the environmental impact of its products. Using creative approaches to energy management, JFW focuses on improving the energy efficiency of its operations and investing in the development of clean, renewable energy. <br /><br /> To date, JFW has saved more than $15M through energy efficiencies. The company has reinvested the savings in onsite solar generation with a goal to power 50% of its winemaking operations with renewable energy by 2021. As of this year, the company will reach 35% with the completed installation of over 6.3 MW of solar systems across 8 wineries, which is currently the wine industry’s largest solar generation portfolio. JFW was also an innovator in stationary energy storage as an early collaborator with Tesla Energy to pilot their Powerpack battery technology in a winery setting. JFW has more than 4MW of batteries installed. <br /><br /> To source clean energy for the balance of its operations, JFW has purchased green power renewable energy credits (RECs) since 2010 and was the first winery to receive a Green Power Leadership Award in 2011. Each year, JFW purchases U.S.-generated green power at 130% of the company’s annual usage—100% for company operations and another 30% on behalf of all employees’ home usage, one of the only companies in the U.S. to do so.

Jackson Hole Mountain Resort Achieves Benchmark Environmental Goal with over 10% Reduction in Greenhouse Gas Emissions <br /><br /> (April 20, 2015- Teton Village, WY) After the completion of another successful winter season, Jackson Hole Mountain Resort (JHMR) is pleased to announce further positive results relating to environmental goals and initiatives. The resort received its third ISO 14001 re-registration and exceeded its environmental goal of reducing greenhouse gas emissions resort-wide by over 10%. <br /><br /> With the third continuous re-registration of the ISO 14001 Environmental Management System (EMS) at JHMR by KPMG, JHMR holds strong as the only ski resort in the United States to have an externally audited EMS. "These external audits prove we walk our green talk by quantifying environmental actions taken by every department in the organization," said JHMR Environmental Coordinator Jon Bishop. <br /><br /> This year JHMR met its five-year quantitative goal for its EMS by reducing the company's greenhouse gas emissions from electricity, natural gas/propane and vehicle fuels by over 10%. This is measured relative to a per-guest baseline established in 2009. "These goals demonstrate that we are able to more efficiently use energy resources as our business continues to develop," stated JHMR President Jerry Blann. "We are doing our part to mitigate the risks associated with climate change that affect ski resorts world-wide," Blann went on to note. <br /><br /> The Brendle Group, a Colorado-based consultancy also working on National Ski Area Association's (NSAA) Climate Challenge (of which JHMR is a founding member) developed an Inventory Management Plan for greenhouse gas emissions reductions for JHMR in 2011. Their plan resulted in updates to building heating systems, year-round use of B10 diesel fuel and conversion of up to four vehicles to run on 100% waste vegetable oil collected from JHMR restaurants. "The Buildings and Areas, Food and Beverage and Vehicle Maintenance departments really stepped up to the plate over the last few years. We are seeing many innovative projects from these groups being completed that, collectively, have resulted in improved efficiencies for the company," said Bishop. <br /><br /> JHMR is committed to this Environmental Management System, and is developing new quantitative goals to further reduce greenhouse gas emissions and solid waste generation per guest visit relative to a new 2014 baseline. A variety of activities, such as conversion of gasoline to diesel vehicles, replacement of two-stroke snowmobiles with E-tec and 4-stroke models, energy efficiency standards for new building and remodeling and potential renewable energy installations, are all being considered as environmental improvements to resort facilities and operations over the next five years.

As the medical labware industry’s longtime recognized leader in Earth Friendly™ reusable and recyclable products, Labcon North America installed a 796 kW rooftop solar system in 2011 to reduce GHG emissions and support renewable energy development. Solar energy production exceeded expectations allowing for a projected ROI in just under 7 years. Current energy costs including finance payments and rebates result in a $20k per year savings for going green, however, Labcon will save at least an additional $100k per year after the final solar lease payments are made. Sales have increased regions such as Germany, Japan and the US coasts due to their support for sustainable manufacturing and green energy. The positive customer response plus economic and environmental benefits led Labcon to add another 73 kW in late 2013. A total of 869 kW of rooftop solar produced 30% of Labcon’s 2014 energy needs and Labcon’s goal is to operate with 75% renewable energy by 2020, 50% produced onsite. This is especially remarkable considering Labcon’s manufacturing is an energy intensive process that runs 24/7 year round.

Lake Merritt Dental is a comprehensive, award winning, green certified, whole oral health care clinic located in Uptown Oakland. We’ve received our Green Business Certification in 2013, and since then we’ve continually taken steps towards more sustainable business practices. Most notably, we’ve earned the EBMUD SmartWater certification, the Cool California Small Business Award, and the American Association of Dental Office Manager’s Green Leader Award. Switching to wind power was the natural next step because it is important for us that we utilize the most renewable resources whenever possible. When we first visited the idea of renewable energy, we faced insurmountable obstacles such as the infeasibility of solar panels on our building, and decision making limitations as a tenant rather than property owner. Through this EPA partnership program, we are able to choose renewable energy sources very easily and without changing utility companies, and we are able to track our impact through helpful analytics provided by our service provider. This great resource has helped us reach one of our main objectives as a green business. <br /><br /> “Through this EPA partnership program, we are able to choose renewable energy sources very easily and without changing utility companies, and we are able to track our impact through helpful analytics provided by our service provider.

K-1 Packaging Group provides printing solutions for the packaging industry and is committed to meet or exceed customer expectations by providing outstanding service, superior quality, on-time delivery, and innovative, responsible printing and packaging solutions. K-1 Packaging Group currently purchases wind energy equal to all of its electricity use. Responsibility was the driving force behind the company's green power commitment and its other environmental initiatives. Although committing to an environmentally responsible, proactive program was not without cost, for K-1 Packaging Group, responsibility to its company, customers, and communities was paramount. Considering the effects its operations have on the environment, the company resolved to find real, responsible, and sustainable solutions that do not jeopardize or compromise future generations and their ability to meet their environmental needs. When K-1 began exploring the opportunities for an alternate source of electricity, it was impressed with the availability, flexibility, and diversity among the options offered as alternatives. During the process of buying green power, K-1 learned that its electricity demand was growing at a disproportionate rate to its sales. Concurrent to the company's renewable energy purchase, K-1 Packaging Group re-evaluated its standard practices, made immediate and responsible changes to its operations, and implemented long-term sustainable environmental solutions. In addition to its renewable energy purchase, K-1 Packaging is part of a chain of custody program where the pulp and fiber used to make paper products are traceable back to the forest from which they were harvested. These independently certified forests are responsibly managed and sustainable. Through continual improvement and discovering new and alternative methods to run its operations and manufacturer its products, K-1's environmental efforts are protecting the environment and reducing our reliance on non-renewable natural resources. Mike Tsai, President of K-1 Packaging Group, says, "As a result of our commitment we have received many benefits. One such benefit is a renewed sense of Pride within the organization. Our employees have become more conscientious in their conservation activities. They know their efforts, whether large or small, brings us closer to our environmental goals."

Kamanu Composites is Hawaii’s largest manufacturer of outrigger canoes. The carbon fiber composite canoes are constructed completely in their Kailua, O’ahu based facility. Because composites manufacturing is inherently damaging to the environment and energy intensive, Kamanu is committed to pursuing every avenue available in order to reduce its carbon footprint. Kamanu currently uses about 58,000 KWH of wind energy per year in the production of their canoes. While most sustainability initiatives are difficult and process oriented, switching to renewable energy is not. It was the first step of many in their path towards sustainability.

Keeney’s Office Supply / Office Interiors is an independent, woman-owned, sustainable office supply and furniture dealer in Seattle, WA. Keeney’s has been in business since 1947 and has developed a progressive green program both internally and for its customers, including the purchase of green power for our headquarters in Redmond, WA. <br><br> Keeney’s purchase of green power in 2015 was 86,217 kWh – it is 100% of Keeney's electricity power. This power comes from independent clean energy producers in our region that generate electricity from wind, sun, biogas, agricultural waste and landfill gas. <br><br> For Keeney’s, it was an obvious choice to buy 100% of its electricity from renewable sources. Of all the things Keeney's does to be a sustainable business, this was by far the easiest decision and process to implement. It is nice to know that by using green power last year Keeney's helped avoid the release of 105,000 pounds of carbon dioxide emissions into the air (providing environmental benefits equivalent to planting 1221 trees).

KI manufactures innovative furniture and wall system solutions for education, healthcare, government, and corporate markets. The employee-owned company is headquartered in Green Bay, WI, and operates sales offices and manufacturing facilities in the United States, Canada, Latin America, Europe, and Asia. KI tailors products and service solutions to the specific needs of each customer through its unique design and manufacturing philosophy.<br /><br />KI’s Design and Development Center produced 124,629 KWh of solar energy in 2013. The drivers behind the switch to green power were the opportunities to take advantage of grants, reduce the company's carbon footprint, and enhance the city’s environment. The main lesson KI learned was that involving their IT staff from the beginning of the project was very important because connecting the inverter to the web to monitor solar output took a few days to set up. The benefits to the company are the employee and customer awareness of the solar system, lower expenses for fossil-fuel based energy, and the generation of clean, renewable energy to supply the office's electricity needs.

For 52 years, Lane Community College has been transforming lives through learning. Lane is a learning-centered community college that provides affordable, quality, lifelong educational opportunities. Historically Lane has shown leadership in adopting renewable energy as a path toward crafting solutions to its own and the world's environmental challenges. Examples of the college’s strategies to fulfill its 2005 Talloires Declaration and 2006 Climate Leadership Committment commitments include: <ul> <li>The purchase of 10% of offsite renewable energy.</li> <li>Offset the all electricity use with 1% of on site renewable energy generation.</li> <li>Instituting a revolving loan fund for energy conservation and renewable energy projects.</li> <li>Developing a strategy for becoming carbon neutral.</li> <li>Allocating $830,000 for on-site renewable energy from a 2008 $83 million capital project bond.</li> </ul> Lane uses about 3 megawatts of renewable energy annually from onsite and off site generation resources. An annual review of renewable energy resources is conducted by the college’s energy analyst and adjustments are made to green power purchases to support the college’s commitments. The college has met and surpassed both of its renewable energy goals in 2014 and is currently drafting a new set of goals with assistance from the National Renewable Energy Lab. Completing a major wind power purchase in 2006 and constructing a series of solar electric projects from 2005 thru 2013 are factors in the college’s initial success. The biggest benefits of Lane’s commitment to green power have been our student and faculty involvement in constructing solar electric generation resources like the 36 KW Solar Station, three 1.8 KW arrays at Lane’s child care center, and a 11.8 KW learning lab at the new downtown center.

Climate change mitigation is vital to the long-terms success of our business, as well as the health and well-being of the people who make and buy our products. This is why Levi Strauss & Co. measured its baseline global climate footprint in 2007 and established a goal to reduce it by 11% by 2011. LS&Co. beat that goal, achieving a 13% reduction. <br><br> And when it comes to the next stage in their climate change strategy, their ambitious approach is no exception to their legacy: their vision is to reduce carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases through maximizing energy efficiency and using 100% renewable energy – first in their operations and then throughout the supply chain. <br><br> Their new global targets address every major source of their corporate emissions. This involves engagement at every level of the company, from the front-line employees who operate their stores and make their products, to their financial managers and building operators. <br><br> • Offices, Retail, and Distribution: 25% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions by 2020<br> • Manufacturing: 5% annual reduction in greenhouse gas emissions per product shipped<br> • All LS&Co.: 20% of energy purchases from renewable sources by 2020<br>

Lewis & Clark College is purchasing green power equal to 100 percent of its campus-wide electricity use. While the College had purchased green power in the past, a student initiative to promote an opt-out green fee to fund 100 percent renewable energy allowed for this significant step to be made. The college’s green power efforts have been coupled with years of investment in energy efficiency as well as onsite renewables. Lewis & Clark believes that these efforts in addition to the green power purchase provide numerous benefits to it as the school works to achieve its climate neutrality goal.

Lewis and Clark Community College is a two-year higher education institution with multiple campuses, a river research center, Community Education Centers and training centers located throughout the 220,439-person college district, which reaches into seven counties. The college created a Climate Action Plan, instituted a per-credit-hour Green Fee, and signed on to the American Colleges and Universities Presidents’ Climate Commitment during the 2008-2009 school year. The main goal emanating from that commitment is to achieve campus carbon neutrality by the year 2058. Part of this effort, then, was the commitment to purchase 100 percent renewable energy, almost entirely sourced from wind, formalized for a second time in 2014.

Lifeway is the country’s leading manufacturer of kefir, with multiple flavors and varieties that include lowfat, whole milk, organic versions and a children's line. The company purchases renewable energy credits (RECs) equal to 100% of the electricity used to produce their products. This avoids over 2.5 million pounds of carbon dioxide pollution, roughly the same as planting 335 acres of trees or removing 222 cars from the road. <br/><br/> "As a natural foods company, we have always been committed to clean, safe and healthy eating,” says Julie Smolyansky, CEO. “The purchase of renewable energy can help create a clean, safe and healthy environment for Chicago's communities. This aligns our nutritional goals with our environmental goals, demonstrates good corporate citizenship, and shows our customers that we are dedicated to their health as well as that of the planet because the two are so closely intertwined." She continues: “We enjoy supporting green energy initiatives because it’s something we strongly believe in. Having the opportunity to participate in such a noble cause is its own reward. For Lifeway, going green is not just an idle mantra. It is something we back with actions on a daily basis.” <br/><br/> Smolyansky suggests that there are many different ways for a company or organization to get involved in green and sustainable projects, and that beginning a relationship with one organization can open many doors and future opportunities.

Lucy School’s campus is on 17 acres of land in Maryland. The school’s curriculum for each grade level has environmental components that take full advantage of the location. Going “green” was a natural extension of the schools orientation; all of the school’s electric power is either wind, which is purchased through renewable energy credits (RECs) or produced on site by the school’s solar system. The school utilizes high efficiency equipment and has installed a geothermal system and has integrated the various elements of the soon to be LEED certified classroom building in the teaching programs. The most tangible benefits are that lower electric bills and reduced water consumption and discharge.<br /><br />The most important benefit however, is that students are becoming dedicated and increasingly more vocal environmental stewards. As Dr. Victoria Brown, founder and director of the school said, "Our work with young children encompasses a broad spectrum of objectives that go beyond socialization and academics. Their emotional and aesthetic growth is equally important as is the world into which they will live. We thus take every opportunity to build a strong foundation of excitement, love and respect for the environment and a recognition that care and even small positive actions will contribute to a better world for everyone."

Located in the small northeast Iowa town of Decorah, Luther College is a private undergraduate liberal arts institution of about 2,500 students. Luther owns a 1.6 MW wind turbine that generates approximately 4 million kilowatt hours (kWh) each year and purchases approximately 2 million kWh of green power from a nearby community wind project. Luther leases a 280 kW solar photovoltaic (PV) array that generates approximately 355,000 kWh per year. The college also owns a 4 kW solar PV array that powers a residence for students interested in sustainability, a 20 kW solar PV at Baker Village, and is planning on the installation of 809 kw during the 2015-2016 academic year. <br/><br/> Luther is a charter signatory of the American College and University Presidents Climate Commitment. The college has reduced its energy-related greenhouse gas emissions via investments in energy efficiency and green power 38 percent since their peak in 2004 and is striving to achieve a net-zero carbon footprint by 2030. Luther recently received a Climate Leadership Award from Second Nature and is one of only 8 colleges and universities in the nation to receive an “A” on the College Sustainability Report Card. “Luther College is delighted to join the EPA’s Green Power Partnership. We want to be a model of sustainability for our students and the wider community rather than a mirror of the unsustainable practices of our culture”, said Richard L. Torgerson, President.

Marine Corps Air Station Miramar's mission is to maintain and operate the facilities and provide services and material to support the operations of the 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing, along with other tenant organizations. The installation has strived for green power in order to demonstrate sustainability leadership and meet the mandates set forth by the President, Department of Defense, Navy, and Marine corps. Miramar is proud to state that 41% of the installation's power comes from onsite renewable sources in the form of landfill gas power and photovoltaics. Incorporating onsite renewables has reduced our carbon footprint and created a culture of sustainability at the air station. However, at MCAS Miramar, these assets are not only valued for their sustainability but also energy security for mission assurance. With the implementation of an innovative microgrid system, MCAS Miramar will be able to enable its renewable resources to provide 100% back up power of over one hundred mission-critical facilities. This will both provide greater capability for the Marines and Sailors aboard the air station as well as enable even higher penetration of green power on the grid.

Marstel-Day is a socially and environmentally progressive environmental consulting company deeply committed to green operations, a healthy and energized workforce, conservation of natural resources, and a better planet. Our commitment to identify, adopt, and promote progressive environmental standards and practices defines who we are. We believe that the green practices we apply daily in our internal operations can be replicated by our clients and the community, and we regularly carry that message to our stakeholders and the public. Since our inception, we have looked for ways to reduce our environmental footprint, first by ensuring the sustainability of our operations and practices, and later by entering into a multi-year partnership with Carbonfund to purchase offsets for emissions we are not able to reduce. Making a commitment to purchase renewable energy credits is a logical extension of our philosophy to help preserve the natural resources of our planet, and by helping to develop a strong renewable energy infrastructure within the United States we take another step toward a sustainable future.

Mass Audubon works to protect the nature of Massachusetts for people and wildlife. Together with more than 100,000 members, the organization cares for nearly 35,000 acres of conservation land, provides educational programs for 225,000 children and adults annually, and advocates for sound environmental policies at local, state, and federal levels. Their statewide network of wildlife sanctuaries, in 90 Massachusetts communities, welcomes visitors of all ages and serves as the base for their work. <br /><br /> Central to the organization’s mission is reducing the threat of — and responding to — climate change. To lead by example, they are actively reducing energy usage and demonstrating the use of renewable energy technologies by purchasing green power to cover a portion of their energy use and they have implemented an onsite system to cover the rest. As a result of their efforts – implementing energy and water efficiency measures, and purchasing and producing their own green electricity – they have cut carbon emissions by more than 40 percent since 2003. Mass Audubon is working towards reducing their carbon footprint an additional 10 percent (for a total of 50 percent) by 2014 and sharing lessons learned. They also hope to engage and educate the Mass Audubon community to reduce its carbon footprint by 25 percent by 2020."

Max-R makes waste and recycling bins customized to specific waste streams and aesthetics. The company believes that better bins lead to better results and that recycling should just be easy for everyone, including both users and workers servicing the bins. Features such as clear labels, restrictive openings, pictures, and color-coding make make Max-R's recycling solutions effective, while hinged doors and removable liners make the bins easier to service. <br /><br /> Max-R's bins are made of 97% pure recycled plastic, reclaiming 1,000 milk jugs in an average recycling station. An innovative alternative to wood, the company's recycled plastic material doesn’t rot, split or become food for termites – it never needs painting and comes in 100 different color combinations. In addition to waste/recycling bins, Max-R also manufactures a variety of site furnishings, including benches, message centers, planter boxes, and much more. The company's green power purchase avoids the carbon emission equivalent of taking 100 cars off the road a year!

McCormick Distilling Co. is an industry leader in undertaking initiatives to preserve the environment by reducing waste and resource consumption in the production of alcoholic beverages. Since 2006, the company has worked to reduce its environmental impact, undertaking such efforts as recycling 170 tons annually from day-to-day operations, creating an on-site recycling center to assist employees with their home recycling efforts, and implementing measures to drastically reduce paper consumption. McCormick is a participant in the EPA’s Green Power Partnership, purchasing renewable energy certificates to offset electricity use and natural gas consumption. The company worked with the Missouri Department of Conservation to launch FOREST 360, an initiative to plant indigenous trees on 40 acres of land around the distillery. McCormick’s 360 Vodka brand is the world’s first eco-friendly vodka, the first premium spirit to combine superior quality with environmental responsibility. An innovative distillation process helps to reduce waste and resource consumption, and the bottle is 100% recyclable and features a swing-top cap that can be returned to the distillery for reuse. Located in historic Weston, Missouri, McCormick Distilling Co. is the oldest distillery west of the Mississippi still operating in its original location.

Berman Hebrew Academy originally began purchasing wind power in an effort to save money, and since then has continued purchasing as much wind power as possible with the renewal of each contract. The school also generates renewable energy through an on-site array of solar panels, but sells the electricity to others. "The main lesson we would like to share with anyone who is looking to purchase green power is: Don't give up when trying to add solar panels or put other green power generation into effect. It took quite a bit of effort to get solar panels, but with creative thinking and flexibility we were able to make it happen and are so proud of the result," says Jennifer Zukerman, the school's Director of Institutional Advancement. "The fact that we are also saving significant dollars along the way is also amazing."

The Metropolitan Transit Authority of Harris County (METRO) is the region’s largest public transit provider, offering safe, reliable and affordable transportation services about 370,000 times per day. METRO operates more than 1,200 buses and 22.7 miles of light rail. METRO’s services also include: Star Vanpool, METROLift, HOV lanes, HOT lanes, Bikes-on-Buses/Trains program, Park & Ride and road improvement projects. <br /><br />As METRO continues to expand, so does the need for more electricity for the new facilities and new trains. To address its increased demand for electricity, METRO will offset 30 percent or over 19 million kWh/per year of its electricity consumption with Green-E Certified Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) for a period of 5 years (up to 2020). Using a calculator from the Environmental Protection Agency, the RECs are the equivalent to the carbon sequestered by 1,693,926 tree seedlings grown for 10 years, removing about 66,063 metric tons of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere or displacing the estimated annual greenhouse gas emissions of 13,908 passenger vehicles.<br /><br />From the use of clean-running hybrid buses to the development of a light rail system that reduces traffic congestion or conducting energy audits to the implementation of energy efficient improvements throughout the agency, METRO continues to improve its commitment to environmental stewardship.

MIS is the first facility in all of motorsports and one of the first sporting venues in the country to join the EPA’s Green Power Partnership and offset its energy use from green power. The green power is generated by a partnership with the local utility, Consumers Energy. The track uses nearly five million kilowatt-hours (kWh) of green power annually, enough green power to meet 100 percent of the organization's electricity use. “MIS takes great pride in knowing that our green initiatives have made a significant, positive impact to the environment and sport of auto racing, and we continue to do different things to move forward with those initiatives,” MIS President Roger Curtis said. “It’s the right thing to do to protect our environment. Our brand at MIS is very much an environmentally friendly one and our partnership with Consumers Energy makes that even easier.”

Middelbury College completed construction of a combined heat and power biomass gasification system in January 2008. The system provides about one half of the steam used to heat and cool the campus. The other half is from fuel oil. The steam from both biomass and oil generation goes through electric turbines before circulating through the campus. About 25 percent of all the electricity used on campus each year comes from the cogeneration of electricity by steam. About half of that is from biomass produced steam. By switching to biomass not only is Middlebury able to produce green electricity, it is saving nearly a million dollars a year in fuel costs, putting $800,000 of new money in the local economy (to purchase woodchips from nearby producers), reducing its net carbon footprint, and producing electricity in a highly efficient process. In February 2012, Middlebury installed a photovoltaic array of 34 solar trackers that is expected to produce 200,000 kWh annually.

Morrissey Engineering is dedicated to green power and onsite renewables. The 4940 Building, which houses the company's offices, was originally designed to include wind power, but the company made the switch to solar with addition of a 5.5 kW array in October of 2010. In May of 2014, another 21.5 kW of photovoltaics were installed on the roof, making total onsite capacity 27.0 kW. This accounts for approximately 20% of electric consumption attributed to our PV system. Remaining electricity consumption is offset by purchase of renewable energy certificates (RECs).

After more than a year of research and planning, in 2009, Mountain View Grand Resort & Spa commissioned Northern Power Systems to build a wind turbine behind the resort. Today, we source 100 percent of our electricity usage through renewable wind energy generated by our on-site 121-foot wind turbine by Northern Power Systems and supplemented by NewMix Wind Green-e Energy Certified Renewable Energy Certificates from Constellation NewEnergy, Inc.<br /><br /> This makes Mountain View Grand Resort & Spa the sole hotel or resort and one of only a few companies in New Hampshire to have gained recognition as an EPA 100 percent Green Power Partner, defined as those that use renewable power to meet all their electricity needs. This helps us offset our carbon footprint by around 2,500,000 pounds of CO2 equivalents per year, equal to the following:<br /><br /> • CO2 emissions from the energy use of 100 homes for one year<br /><br /> • Annual greenhouse gas emissions from 230 passenger vehicles<br /><br /> • Carbon sequestered annually by 250 acres of pine or fir forests

National Aquarium is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to inspire conservation of the world's aquatic treasures. It champions environmental initiatives by engaging with visitors, volunteers, education groups and schools to actively participate in the preservation of the world's natural resources and living systems. National Aquarium delivers meaningful experiences through its living collections; science-based education programs and hands-on experiences in the field from the Baltimore-Washington, DC urban corridor to Costa Rica; and partnerships and alliances with like-minded organizations around the world. For more information on National Aquarium, visit www.aqua.org. <br><br> National Aquarium's green power commitment is part of its broad, long-term engagement with the 4.3 MW Cambridge Solar PV project located offsite in Cambridge, Maryland. National Aquarium will receive 100% of the energy produced by the project for 25-years and approximately 40% of the solar renewable energy certificates (SRECs) produced by the project during that time (SRECs in years 16-25). The project owner will retain the SRECs generated by the project in years one to 15 of the agreement. <br><br> To further its commitment to green power in association with this long-term project engagement, National Aquarium is retiring additional Green-e certified wind RECs in a volume that exceeds the expected output of the solar project for at least the first five years of the agreement. <br><br> National Aquarium's long-term commitment and Maryland's strong incentives for solar development combine to ensure the financial viability of the Cambridge Solar project. ""This agreement allows us to 'walk our talk' as a conservation organization,"" John Racanelli, CEO of the National Aquarium, said in a statement. ""Now a significant percent of our electricity will come from clean, renewable energy. We hope this will help set a precedent for supporting large-scale off-site projects and inspire others to take action.”

As an environmental advocacy organization NRDC's mission is to inform government professionals, elected officials, private businesses, the general public and many others about the numerous benefits that renewable energy procurement presents. Our mission is to protect the public health and natural environment by supporting actions and policies that reduce carbon emissions, pollutants and other negative externalities that result from dirtier sources of energy. NRDC inherently supports the renewable energy deployments and frequently produces articles and white papers on the growing clean energy industry and the value that green power adds to the American economy. In nearly all of NRDC's literature on renewable energy we discuss healthier clean energy alternatives, while highlighting the obstacles to adoption and how they can be overcome through public support, policy analysis and technological innovation. The NRDC supports every energy consumer to explore their options for procuring renewable energy and supporting the development of the industry.

Organic mattress maker Naturepedic views its energy consumption as part of its overall commitment to supporting wellbeing, for people and the planet. The hand-crafted nature of many Naturepedic products and the centralization of operations create a lower energy demand than that of a typical automated facility. Naturepedic evaluates materials, processes, and final products on energy, health, and environmental considerations. Additionally, the company continually seeks out new ways to lower its energy consumption. The use of skylights for natural light, reflective roofing to conserve energy, and the support of renewable energy through the purchase of renewable energy certificates (RECs) are only a few of the ways Naturepedic lives out its ethics.

In the beginning, Naturescapes was a partnership which began in the 80’s. After the dissolution of the partnership the corporation, Naturescapes Landscape Specialists, Ltd., located in Paoli, PA, was founded in 1999. From the beginning Naturescapes has been and continues to be dedicated to providing naturalistic gardens for customers in suburban southeastern Pennsylvania. Naturescapes uses natural materials and many native plant species to create holistic garden designs that require minimal maintenance throughout the year. Naturescapes strive to have multiple seasons of interest, including blooms in all seasons. Fruit is another ornamental part of the garden as well as good for the birds, bees and butterflies. Tree structure and bark adds further variety to the landscape. The use of boulders, pathways, ponds and patios increases the human interaction with nature – which is what Naturescapes endeavor to create with its outdoor living spaces. <br/><br/> As a Certified B Corporation, Naturescapes is a firm believer in basing many business decisions by social and environmental factors. Our commitment to green solutions led us to choose green power with Clean Currents to further the reduction of our greenhouse gas emissions and spread community awareness. In addition to choosing green power, Naturescapes strives to meet a set of green garden standards to ensure that they are positively impacting the environment. Naturescapes' basic principles include reducing water use, purchasing materials locally, and reducing the use of pesticides through IPM practices.

New Belgium Brewing Company believes to operate a truly successful company, we must act as our customers, employees, the planet, as well as financials, all matter. We have been implementing these values for 22+ years in Fort Collins, Colorado, and plan to do the same at our future, second home in Asheville, North Carolina. We are committed to lessening our environmental impact even as we constantly add infrastructure for making more beer. In 2013, we began to redirect money, previously utilized to pay for participation in the Fort Collins Green Energy Program, to invest in renewable energy and energy efficiency projects directly within our Fort Collins and Asheville breweries. Our Internal Electricity Tax is a means by which we tax ourselves, at the same rate which we were paying into our local utility's green power purchase program. This money is reserved for energy efficiency and renewable energy projects that will help to directly reduce New Belgium's reliance on fossil fuels.

Founded in 1969, the New England Aquarium is a global leader in ocean exploration and marine conservation. The Aquarium is one of the premier visitor attractions in Boston, with over 1.3 million visitors a year, and a major public education resource. They are redefining what it means to be an aquarium; combining education, entertainment and action to address the most challenging problems facing the ocean. In addition to their educational programs and conservation initiatives, they are implementing green power to have a positive global impact.<br/> <br/> Like any organization, the Aquarium has to manage energy usage and recycling efforts in the policies enacted. They chose to have all of their yearly electricity load come from renewable power sources and they are improving lighting and water-pump efficiency. In addition, Aquarium researchers installed a system to reduce emissions of nitrogen oxide their research vessel, the Galatea.<br/> <br/> Many of these initiatives have been put in place by a committee of Aquarium employees that we call the Green Team. This group continues to brainstorm innovative and effective ways for the Aquarium to conserve energy. We encourage other organizations and businesses to facilitate their own Green Teams.

Northwestern University purchases clean, renewable power to further its commitment to environmental sustainability. Northwestern joined the EPA Green Power Partnership in 2006 by purchasing renewable energy certificates (RECs) to cover a significant portion of the campus' power needs. Since then, the University has increased its REC purchase to equal 50 percent of the campus' energy use, and the purchase of more than 122 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) ranks among the largest college and university purchases in the nation. Northwestern's REC purchase is complimented by an on-site 16 kilowatt (kW) solar array which was the result of a project envisioned and led by students members of Engineers for a Sustainable World (ESW) in collaboration with Northwestern's operations team. Northwestern is executing more than $40M in energy efficiency programs including a new approach to producing chilled water at our central utility plant. As a result, natural gas usage has decreased by almost 70,000 MMBtu a year resulting in a reduction of over 600 tons of CO2. The University is installing two closed-loop geothermal systems which will reduce emissions by more than 1300 metric tons.

Seven years ago Norwood School, a K-8 independent school in Bethesda, Maryland, made the commitment to purchase 100% wind power as part of its efforts to reduce, reuse, and recycle. The school is proud of the fact that to date the school has used wind power to cover all of its electricity use. With the phrase “how you lead your life matters” serving as the school’s guiding principle, the decision to switch to green power came from the students who inspire the school every day to respect the planet. <br /><br /> Two years ago an Energy Task Force was formed to look at energy efficiency projects (such as facility improvements and energy awareness programs) that are designed to meet two objectives: minimize energy consumption/costs and promote energy awareness and conservation values. Last year we converted 40 exterior lights to LED fixtures and this past year we converted one of our Gyms to LED from Metal Halide lighting.

To do that, Oakhurst purchased four hybrid trucks, increased aerodynamics and, most importantly, converted to biodiesel, becoming the first large private fleet in the Northeast to do so. <br /><br /> In 2009 Oakhurst installed 216 solar panels on its warehouse facility in Waterville, Maine, creating the largest solar photovoltaic energy system installation in the State of Maine at that time. <br /><br /> Today, not only has Oakhurst successfully converted its entire fleet of 138 vehicles to biodiesel, but Oakhurst has also proven that it is feasible to do so in the Northeast. Through experimentation, Oakhurst improved its blend of biodiesel from 5% to over 50% in summer months, improving the delivery process in a more sustainable way. Initially biodiesel provided a resource that reduced the company's environmental foot-print, but ultimately it has allowed Oakhurst to develop better business practices since it has reduced costs and helped the community develop a better recycling process to handle restaurant oils.

Oberlin College is an independent coeducational institution comprised of two divisions, the College of Arts and Sciences and the Conservatory of Music. In 2004, Oberlin College began purchasing green power as part of a comprehensive environmental policy initiated by College President Nancy Dye and developed by the College's Environmental Policy Advisory Committee. The premium that the College pays to purchase the green power will be funneled back into the community through a sustainable Energy Reserve Fund which is used to create, among other things, energy renewal projects that benefit Oberlin residents. One very exciting development for Oberlin is that Oberlin Municipal Light and Power System's (OMPLS; the College's municipal utility) signed an agreement to purchase 90 percent of their electricity from renewable sources by the end of 2015. In addition, the College is now purchasing electricity produced from a 2.27 megawatt (MW) solar PV tracking array installed on the College's property. This investment accounts for over 12 percent of the College's annual electricity consumption; and the actual production metrics have proved to provide more power production than the original energy model projected. The College also has invested in other rooftop and parking lot canopy solar PV arrays throughout campus. Between OMLPS green portfolio, the 2.27 MW array, and other solar arrays throughout campus Oberlin College's electricity is progressing toward 100 percent renewable.

Ohio University, located in the scenic Appalachian foothills, was chartered by the state of Ohio in 1804. It is the oldest university in the Northwest Territory and its classic residential campus is one of the most attractive in the nation. <br/><br/> As of Dec. 1, 2015, Ohio University is purchasing 60,000,000 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of wind renewable energy certificates (RECs) annually. In 2010 and 2011, a committee of over 70 faculty, staff, students and community members created a Sustainability Plan which includes a goal to increase renewable energy generation and sourcing to 20% of all campus energy use by 2020. The REC purchase allows Ohio University to meet this goal by December of 2015, significantly decreases scope 2 carbon emissions, and complements the transition from coal to natural gas as a heating fuel that occurred in November 2015. Purchasing green power gives legitimacy to Ohio University’s efforts to become the most sustainable university in the Mid-American Conference (MAC). <br/><br/> “Transitioning to 50 percent renewable electricity will enable Ohio University to exceed the goals of our 2011 Sustainability Plan and significantly reduce our carbon footprint. The shift is reflective of Ohio University’s deep and continued commitment to environmental stewardship,” said President Roderick J. McDavis

Oklahoma State University is a land-grant, public research facility located in Stillwater, Oklahoma. As of January 1, 2013, OSU began purchasing 110 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) of wind energy, which represented about 67 percent of the university's total annual electricity use. Actual usage of wind energy was nearly 69 percent during calendar year 2015. The purchase of wind power reduces OSU’s carbon emissions and environmental footprint while setting an example of environmental stewardship for students, faculty, and staff. "As a premier land-grant university, OSU is dedicated to the stewardship of resources entrusted to us," said OSU President Burns Hargis. "Through its sustainability practices, OSU seeks to more effectively and responsibly serve its university community, as well as the citizens of Oklahoma, our country and the world." OSU is proud to join the State of Oklahoma in taking a leadership position in support of domestic renewable energy source development such as wind power.

The Oregon Convention Center (OCC) is striving to be the most sustainable events facility in the world—and the first choice as a venue for green meetings. Together, our administration, staff and partners have worked to earn the highest level of certification, LEED Platinum® from the U.S. Green Building Council's® Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design™ program in 2014. Over the last decade the OCC has focused its efforts on completing over 30 energy efficiency projects, incorporating an extensive waste recycling, composting and food donation program and managing stormwater through our innovative Rain Garden. In 2014, OCC earned APEX/ASTM certification, the first standards created uniquely for green meetings and events. This program, verified by the Green Meeting Industry Council (GMIC), gives us a roadmap for planning sustainable events, helping vendors and guests practice green habits and working with our community to support the environment. To maintain our certifications, we constantly track our results and continue to raise the bar in our industry. In 2015 the OCC began installation of a 2MW rooftop solar array that will produce 25%-30% of its annual power consumption. The array will be online in the summer of 2016.

Original Smith Printing is a full-service commercial printer serving customers nationwide with emphasis in Chicago and Central Illinois. OSP currently purchases green power for a substantial portion of its annual electricity use. Original Smith Printing began purchasing green power in 2007 to bring environmental awareness to the company, its employees, and customers. This awareness has, in turn, created endless opportunities to reduce, recycle, and reuse. Making a commitment to green power helped force OSP to look at all aspects of its business and find other areas where it can be more environmentally responsible. The company has found that being aware of the environment is contagious and that green opportunities are continually showing themselves. Through buying green power, Original Smith Printing learned that it is easy to become proactive and make an impact on the future of our environment.

Other World Computing (OWC) has provided quality hardware products and support to the computer industry since 1988. On October 19, 2009, OWC became one of the first technology manufacturers/distributors in the U.S. to use on-site wind powered by switching its daily operations energy needs over to a Vestas V39-500 kW wind turbine. <br /><br /> On-site powered, OWC can partially run its resource-conserving, low environmental impact designed facility and internet operations datacenter on this renewable, non-polluting power source. The self-funded wind turbine project is estimated to generate 1.25 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) per year. OWC chose this commercial model turbine to insure that there would always be adequate energy for future growth. OWC made the decision to become a zero-emission company because of the conservational benefits, as well as the future cost of energy. <br /><br /> As part of its ongoing “Green” mission, OWC installed rooftop solar panels in its Austin TX facility in March 2014 and continues seeking new ways to reduce power usage in its three facilities, conserve natural resources, work toward a "Zero Waste" goal, and lessen its carbon footprint.

Paris Autobarn LLC is a full service eco-friendly garage located in South Paris, Maine. Our goal, since day one, has been to run our business in the most sustainable way possible. Bringing sustainability to automotive repair can be quite difficult but I believe we are making great progress by making use of recycled and bio-based engine oil, extended service oil filters, non-toxic parts cleaning, and more. However, we decided that the single most impactful thing we could do to achieve our sustainability goal was to go solar. In July of 2015 we did just that by installing 45 solar panels on our shop’s roof. Going solar has put us in direct control over where our electricity is coming from and ensured that this power will always come from a clean, renewable, and local source.

Park City has preserved over 7,000 acres of open space through taxpayer-voted purchases and development agreements. The City has initiated many municipal environmental sustainability programs including a green building policy for municipal structures, a green purchasing policy, a ban on plastic water bottles at City-funded events, a bio-diesel bus fleet, a City-wide idling ordinance, and a City employee bike-share program. A recent municipal energy efficiency & renewable energy project reduced municipal greenhouse gas emissions by 12 percent. Park City completed its municipal carbon footprint in August 2008 and was the first in Utah to conduct a community-wide carbon greenhouse gas inventory in April 2009. Park City continues to track municipal energy consumption and its carbon footprint on an annual basis.

Philadelphia University is an ACUPCC signatory institution committed to both the educational mission of sustainability, and the practicing of sustainability within our own operations. The University began with a 10 percent green power commitment in 2011, and increased that commitment to 15 percent for 2012, and 2013. Effective 7/1/2014 the University began a 4 year contract for 100% third-party certified green power that it has since maintained. HT and commercial green power contracts are in place until 6/30/2018. Residential accounts contracts are now in place to 6/30/2019. In addition conservation methodologies are being implemented campus-wide and our resulting carbon footprint has been dramatically reduced from 11,699 MTCOe in 2010 to 7327 MTCOe in 2016. An approximate 48% reduction. “Educating people about sustainability practices is not just a feel-good exercise-it’s an important part of optimizing bottom-line energy savings that building upgrades can deliver.” said University President Stephen Spinelli Jr., Ph.D. “With this program, we’re going beyond the retrofit to make a broader impact on how our campus community manages energy, ultimately driving greater economic and environmental benefits for the university.”

Established in 1893, Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens is a Victorian glasshouse, gardens, and tropical forest conservatory recognized as a leader in green building development and sustainable operations. As part of its commitment to environmental awareness, Phipps offsets 100% of electricity not produced on-site by purchasing renewable energy credits, and offsets all carbon produced to heat its facilities by purchasing carbon credits. <br /><br /> In December, 2012, Phipps opened The Center for Sustainable Landscapes (CSL. Designed to be the greenest building in the world, the CSL generates all of its own energy and treats all storm and sanitary water captured on-site. It is the first and only building to meet four of the highest green certifications: the Living Building Challenge, LEED Platinum, WELL Building Platinum, and Four-Stars Sustainable SITES. As Phipps’ education, research and administration facility, the CSL is an integral part of the Phipps visitor experience, focusing attention on the important intersection between the built and natural environments, and demonstrating that human and environmental health are inextricably connected. In addition to the CSL, Phipps’ modular SEED Classroom, opened in April 2015, is net zero energy, and the forthcoming Exhibit Staging Center is also designed for net zero energy operation. Both are also designed to meet the Living Building Challenge. Upon completion of the Exhibit Staging Center, anticipated in 2017, Phipps will have three net zero energy buildings on its campus, each showcasing a different construction type (new, modular and retrofit). <br /><br /> Phipps' investment in renewable energy coincides with an organization-wide commitment to minimize energy use in its operations and buildings. By investing in the production of electricity with renewable energy sources, Phipps is helping to support long term renewable energy development projects, thus contributing to the reduction of dependency on fossil fuels and associated greenhouse gas emissions.

The primary driver behind the Port's commitment to purchase green power is the desire to meet corporate environmental goals and objectives by purchasing energy from sustainable sources. This action is consistent with the Port's corporate environmental philosophy to reduce its environmental footprint while supporting development of renewable energy resources. The purchase of green power also aligns with the Port's sustainability policy, which directs staff to exhibit leadership through innovative, triple-bottom-line approaches based on sound science and informed decision-making. Bill Wyatt, Executive Director, notes that the Port's use of green power is "a way to purchase our electric energy from a sustainable source and support a vital and emerging industry."

PortionPac®, named one of the country’s Top Small Company Workplaces by Inc. Magazine, manufactures Green-Seal certified cleaning products for elementary schools, libraries, government buildings, correctional facilities and hospitals. PortionPac’s high-concentrate cleaning system actually helps people use less: less of its product. For example, just one case of its 1-ounce Pac® brand glass cleaner prevents 100 pounds of plastic and 56 pounds of cardboard from entering the waste stream. The simple emphasis on using less energy is why PortionPac decided in to balance its 144,000 kWh of electricity use with third-party certified Renewable Energy Credits (RECs).<br /><br />"Wind Power is the best energy choice right now. It has a very low environmental impact and by purchasing RECs we are working to support the development and future success of the industry,” said PortionPac President Burt Klein.<br /><br />PortionPac’s goal is to reduce the resources used throughout the lifecycle of production, storage, distribution and disposal, minimize the adverse effects of chemicals on the environment and eliminate the unsafe and ineffective habits of traditional cleaning procedures. PortionPac actively works to reduce its company-wide energy use, and balances the energy it does use in manufacturing, travel, electricity, and gas by investing in certified projects and new technology that mitigate GHG emissions.

Practical Energy Solutions switched to 100% green power after reducing the quantity of electricity the company uses as much as possible. Since Practical Energy Solutions consults with building owners to first reduce their energy use as much as possible, and then buy or install as much renewable energy as their budget allows, this was an easy decision for the company to make. The company's mission is to have the greatest impact possible in reducing its clients' reliance on conventional energy sources through conservation, efficiency, renewable energy, and through development of a long-range strategic energy plan for their organization. "The primary benefit of of us using green power is that we have fulfilled part of our commitment to minimize our environmental impact to benefit current and future generations," said Paul D. Spiegel, P.E., President.

Based on the conviction that what is good for the community is good for the company, Price Chopper Supermarkets continues to place an ever increasing emphasis on the development and implementation of a comprehensive corporate environmental sustainability architecture. It is within the context of that ethos that Price Chopper is focusing on stewardship-related, business approaches and Corporate Social Responsibility. <br /><br /> To support these efforts, Price Chopper is currently purchasing and using a significant amount of green power. The company has elected to pursue this course as a means of reducing the greenhouse gas emissions profile associated with the production of the electricity that is required to operate its 130 individual store locations and all supporting infrastructure. <br /><br /> “Purchasing green power reflects the belief that it is our corporate responsibility to include electric power produced from a more environmentally sustainable source in our utility portfolio. By purchasing 12,000 Megawatt hours of green power in the form of third-party-certified RECs, we are preferentially selecting (for) renewable resource energy and prioritizing power that has been generated with (a) minimal environmental impact,” Joe Berman, Manager of Sustainability, LEED AP BD&C.

Quest Diagnostics empowers people to take action to improve health outcomes. Derived from the world's largest database of clinical lab results, our diagnostic insights reveal new avenues to identify and treat disease, inspire healthy behaviors and improve health care management. Quest annually serves one in three adult Americans and half the physicians and hospitals in the United States. The company’s integration of environmental sustainability into our business strategy began with the development of GreenQuest in 2008. GreenQuest was launched on Earth Day 2008 with the core mission to reduce our environmental impact by monitoring our energy use and carbon emissions annually and implemented local "Green" projects and company-wide initiatives to conserve, recycle or reuse energy, water, supplies and waste. Since 2008 we have reduced the fuel use in our ground vehicle fleet by 23%, saving 2.0 million gallons of gas and more than 21,500 metric tons of CO2 emissions. Since 2014 we have purchased primarily wind generated energy RECs (Renewable Energy Certificates) from some of our regional energy suppliers; totaling approx. 6% the electricity we purchased company-wide. This decision supports our GreenQuest mission to reduce our carbon footprint; further establishes Quest Diagnostics as an environmentally sustainable company to our customers and shareholders; and endorses the ongoing proliferation of sustainable energy resources.

I’m proud to say that in 2009 we became carbon neutral and hold ourselves accountable for our winery's carbon footprint. Global warming is real and one of today’s biggest threats to our future. This is something we had to do. The whole world needs to get involved in solving this problem.”

Founded in 1863, Saint Mary’s College is a Catholic liberal arts institution committed to social justice, respect for all persons and the power of education to transform lives. Our Lasallian heritage speaks to our awareness and service to economic, social and environmental injustices both locally and globally. <br/><br/> As of March 2015, Saint Mary’s College committed towards offsetting 100% of our expected annual electricity usage by buying approximately 11,512 Renewable Energy Credits (RECs) annually. These RECs are nationally-sourced (100% wind) Green-e Energy Certified and show our commitment to reducing greenhouse gas and pollutant emissions. These RECs help avoid CO2 emissions equivalent to those created by burning 1,266,232 gallons of gasoline. <br/><br/> As a signee of the California Energy Pledge and Catholic Climate Covenant, our switch to green power is one tool among many towards reducing our carbon footprint. Partnerships with our energy providers and utilities have helped us realize some important strategic actions on energy. Our green power purchases (RECs) have helped us in our data reporting internally and with the Association for the Advancement of Sustainability in Higher Education (AASHE).

Saint Paul RiverCentre/Xcel Energy Center is an almost 1.3 million square-foot event venue in Saint Paul, Minnesota. As an NHL hockey arena, convention center, and historic auditorium, this complex greets about 3 million visitors per year for a wide range of events. SPRC/XEC has been working since 2009 to become a leader in sustainable operations, integrating a range of programs that reduce waste, save energy and water, and promote the use of renewable energy technologies. The complex currently purchases over 11 million kWh of renewable energy per year, in addition to having an 82 kW on-site solar electric array that generated almost 65,000 kWh in 2015. <br /><br /> As part of SPRC/XEC's commitment to renewable energy, they also engage many events in purchasing wind power to offset the energy use of their meeting, concert, or other gathering at the venue. This has provided an educational platform to teach about renewable energy, while increasing the proportion of facility energy use that is actually covered by renewable energy. The program has facilitated a great partnership between event, venue, and energy utility that can provide a model for others to follow.

Salesforce, the Customer Success Platform and world's #1 CRM, empowers companies to connect with their customers in a whole new way. Salesforce considers the environment to be a key stakeholder. The Salesforce core platform is already 50 times more carbon efficient than on-premise solutions. On top of this, Salesforce is committed to eventually powering its global operations with 100% renewable energy and achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2050. <br /><br /> To accelerate corporate renewable energy procurement, Salesforce became a founding member of RMI’s Business Renewables Center. In late 2015, Salesforce signed a 12-year virtual power purchase agreement (VPPA) for 40 MW of a new wind farm in West Virginia. In early 2016, the company announced a second VPPA for 24 MW of a new wind farm in Texas. These two agreements are Salesforce's biggest step yet toward powering 100% of its global operations with renewable energy. Read more at salesforce.com/sustainability.

San Chez, A Tapas Bistro and Café, Bistro has committed to using 33 percent green power since 2009 and plans to purchase green power for 100 percent of its electricity use by 2015. Restaurants are notoriously high users of electricity, and Dan Gendler, President of San Chez, wanted his restaurant to be part of the solution, not part of the problem. Gendler says, “Not only do our guests appreciate that we are conscious of the environment that they live in, we have raised an awareness of our staff that has equated to over a 15 percent reduction in energy costs or $15,000 per year. Together this makes for a very viable marketing and sales situation. So it is a financial as well as a community decision. It is fantastic when these two things go hand in hand; true sustainability. ” For companies considering “going green,” he recommends they start slowly and proceed methodically, first using energy more wisely, and then buying green power with the money saved.

SAU-70 is a K-12 public school system in Hanover New Hampshire. There are approximately 1888 students within all of the school buildings and approximately 350 Staff members to guide them through their education. Energy Efficiency is a concept that is woven into their education curriculum. There are Environmental clubs at the Middle and High Schools where students actively study and make recommendations for improvements to the school system for consideration as improvements to their operation. A number of programs and initiatives that have been in sync with the Facilities dept. recommendations. One large project that is close to completion is a LED lighting conversion project at the Middle school, both interior and exterior. The project will be completed Spring 2016. The High School is slated to follow in the same direction, over the next three years. The Bernice A. Ray Elementary School has converted approximately half of the building & grounds lighting to LED. The School also recently converted the heating fuel to Propane with condensing boilers and high efficiency burners. Composting and recycling are a part of the school life these days at all of the facilities. Hanover High School and Richmond Middle School both create the majority of the interior HVAC heat by burning woodchips thanks to computer technology, thus allowing a very efficient use of the fuel. These changes coupled with the Green Energy for electrical power, are earnest efforts on the part of the people within the the schools of Hanover, NH to be conscientious about the effect their schools make on the environment.

http://www.saundershotelgroup.net/eco-program.php
The Saunders Hotel Group launched its environmental program in 1992 and has demonstrated a genuine commitment to comprehensive environmental stewardship ever since. Over the last 20 years, the hotels they manage have implemented myriad environmental initiatives including electric vehicle charging stations, waste-saving amenity dispensers, LED roof signs, waterless urinals, and high efficiency HVAC and lighting systems. Their efforts are both visible and behind the scenes – one hotel started offsetting their carbon emissions as early as 2001. The Saunders Hotel Group team takes a critical look at all aspects of the business to find opportunities to reduce each hotel’s footprint, improve their service to guests, be a leader in the community, and improve the world we all share. In 2011, the Saunders Hotel Group won the World Travel and Tourism Council’s prestigious ‘Tourism for Tomorrow Award’ for Community Benefit, and in 2012 they scored the highest marks for a hospitality company through Climate Counts.<br /><br /> Saunders Hotel Group makes it a priority to partner with businesses whose commitment to sustainability matches their own, and since none of the hotels were good candidates for on-site renewable energy, they found a third party supplier who could help them reduce their impact and support the renewable energy industry at the same time.

In the future, Sephora aims to report on its progress, and hopes to educate its clients, vendors and other partners on both the benefits of purchasing green power & the impact of integrating more environmentally friendly decisions within a retail organization.

Spertus Institute's sustainable practice is inspired by the Jewish tenets of tikkun olam (repair the world) and bal taschit (do not waste). The Institute has been guided by these principles in its decision to successfully pursue Silver LEED certification for our new facility, as well as in its continuing operations. Procuring 100% renewably sourced energy was part of a continuum. We put great stock in the environmentally friendly features of our building including its green roof, comprehensive recycling program, catering based on local and organic sourcing, and computer controlled lighting and all-electric HVAC systems. We are a rental space of choice for many green and forward-thinking organizations seeking a venue concerned with sustainable practice. Powered by 100% renewable energy reflects our commitment to that practice.

SUNY Cortland continues to purchases renewable energy certificates (RECs) equal to the amount of fossil fuel and nuclear power derived electricity within the New York State Electric Mix. This is equivalent to 72 percent of the campus' yearly electricity use. The remaining electricity is either generated on site by our large solar array, or is considered renewable energy sources to the New York State Electric Mix derived from hydro-electric, wind, solar, and bio-mass. As a charter signatory of the College and University President's Climate Commitment we are committed to both developing a sustainable future and to supporting the implementation of utility scale sustainable technology. Since starting to purchase RECs in the Fall of 2013, SUNY Cortland has been pleasantly surprised in the near universal approval from the campus community. The 2015-2016 fiscal year represents the first year with our Power Purchase Agreement Solar Array in operation, bringing in an additional 1,155,691 kWhs of On-Site Electricity. We are very pleased with this project as it has a physical presence on campus and generates a great interest among students and the community at large, offering additional educational opportunities for the University.

Sutherland Asbill & Brennan LLP, which provides legal services worldwide, is committed to fostering a culture of sustainability, including the purchase of renewable energy credits. Sutherland currently has a green power commitment to cover all of its U.S. energy use. "Sutherland actively aims to reduce the environmental impact created by everyday business in our offices," said Tom Warren, Sutherland's Sustainability Partner. Tom is also a member of the Energy and Environmental Practice Group and chair of the firm's Energy Projects Team. Sutherland's sustainability initiative began with firm personnel discussing examples of wasteful practices at the firm. After collecting data and determining what improvements could be implemented, Sutherland's sustainability committee formally announced a firm-wide sustainability initiative on May 13, 2009. Among its many sustainability endeavors, Sutherland has adopted energy-efficient lighting, an award-winning commute alternatives program, and paper-reduction targets. The firm's "Do One Thing Differently" campaign challenges attorneys and staff to modify one aspect of their behavior every two weeks in order to build a more sustainable culture, both within the firm and their daily lives. Sutherland is a leader in the ABA-EPA Law Office Climate Challenge, a voluntary program that encourages law firms to improve energy efficiency, use renewable energy and reduce paper consumption.

Beginning with a student campaign to bring renewable energy to the campus in 1997, Swarthmore College's original commitment to offset two percent of its total electric power, with wind power credits, rose to eight percent in 2005 and continued to grow as a percentage of electric power purchases. Today, in 2016, Swarthmore College has combined conservation measures with an increased commitment to supporting the development of renewable energy sources. The College now compensates more than 100 percent of its electrical power carbon load with renewable energy certificates (RECs). It's an important statement of the College's values when students and the administration can work collaboratively toward the goal of cleaner energy for the nation and the world.

Swiss Reinsurance is a leading global reinsurance company headquartered in Zürich, Switzerland. It employs nearly 12,000 people in more than 65 offices worldwide. The Swiss Re Group is a leading wholesale provider of reinsurance, insurance and other insurance-based forms of risk transfer. Dealing direct and working through brokers, its global client base consists of insurance companies, mid-to-large-sized corporations and public sector clients. "Addressing the issue of climate change has been a long-term strategic priority for Swiss Re for more than 20 years. Our Greenhouse Neutral Programme has been one of the main ways to achieve this goal. It was launched in 2003. By the end of 2013, we had achieved a total reduction in CO2 emissions per employee of 56.5% compared to 2003. The large reduction had also been made possible by a separate 2005 commitment to purchase as much high-quality renewable energy for our office locations as possible and to off-set the rest with high quality emission reduction certificates. However, the number of emissions reductions Swiss Re still must buy is high. We've set ourselves the target to reduce this amount as much as possible in the upcoming years," says Eckert Head Internal Environmental Management, Swiss Re.

SWT Design is a sustainable design company that has embraced green power as a way to implement sustainable practices in all of its proposed projects. The employees of SWT Design treat their campus as a “living laboratory” – one that tests and measures sustainable best practices to create evidence-based design approaches.<br /><br />In 2012, SWT installed 20 monocrystalline solar panels that produce 4,300 kWh of energy per year, enough to power ten of the company's computer work stations for an average 8-hour work day. Additionally, SWT Design is using green power to meet the majority of the electric demand at their facilities. Overall, they see that the major benefit to using green power is that it gives them the ability to educate their clients on the use of alternative energy. As an advocate of green power, SWT Design believes its commitment can inspire others to environmental sensitivity.<br /><br />“Our success is predicated on being a leader in sustainable design,” said Ted Spaid, Co-Founding Principal of SWT Design. “By embracing and using green power, we are solidifying our commitment to the environment and educating the public of the benefits of green energy.”

Tate is a multi-facility North American manufacturer of raised access floor panels, understructure components, and airflow management solutions for Data Centers. Tate is a member of Kingspan Group, a group of companies serving the worldwide building industry with a passion for environmental protection and energy efficiency. <br /><br /> The growing concern over the environmental impacts associated with green house gas emissions coupled with rising energy costs and tighter budgets have led to greater interest in how commercial offices are built and operated. Commercial buildings and computer data centers that incorporate design and construction strategies to conserve resources, operate efficiently, and improve the overall work environment for occupants are now demanded in today's environmentally focused built environment. Tate products address these environmental expectations in building by improving the efficiency of mechanical systems and creating a better indoor environment for occupants. <br /><br /> In its own manufacturing, Tate's North American facilities use 100% renewable wind energy. The driver behind Tate’s decision to ‘Go Green’ was Kingspan Group's mission to achieve net zero energy status in this decade and Tate’s own environmental programs under ISO 14001 Environmental Management System. <br /><br /> In Tate’s experience, commitment to use green power has not added costs. Transition to green seems to enhance focus on efficient energy management, resulting in an overall reduction in energy used. The other benefits include preference for Tate products in prestigious green buildings.

It makes business sense and provides substantial long term savings through using solar energy, reducing landfill waste, increasing recycling efforts, and reducing natural gas use for hot water and heating. “It is a compelling narrative for the School to become greener,” said Bob Oxenburgh, Director of Finance and Facilities. "As a learning institution, we should show a concern about pouring greenhouse gasses into the atmosphere, and instead play our part in reducing the burning of fossil fuels."

A modern-classic paradise, this 540-room, Italian Renaissance-style resort resides on 140 acres of Florida oceanfront property in the heart of Palm Beach. Founded in 1896, and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, The Breakers purchases 25,000,000 kWh of green power annually, equivalent to 100 percent of the hotel's annual electrical power consumption. "Protecting and preserving our environment and our natural resources continues to be a critical factor in how we make business decisions," says Rick Hawkins, Director of Materials Management." We believe that it is important for business leaders to demonstrate a commitment to carbon free energy if they truly desire to promote sustainable business practices. One of our organization’s key strategic drivers is environmental sustainability, and our goal is to set standards that can serve as a model for our team members, community, and peers." Purchasing green power was not difficult, nor prohibitively expensive for The Breakers, and it has enabled them to educate their employees about the role of green energy in reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

The Great Impasta restaurant was the first restaurant to meet the "Green Restaurant Association" requirements for the state of Maine. Each year, our goal it to achieve a" lesser" impact on the resources Maine has to offer. Going with green power was the next logical step even though we only use about 100,000 kWh. This has been a seamless transition and even though it is a little more expensive, the end result is supporting wind power.

Embracing the idea of re-purposing over recycling, The Green Glass Company fashions high-end goblets and drinking glasses from reclaimed wine, water, and trademark bottles reclaimed from the North American waste stream. Re-purposing requires only a fraction of the energy associated with producing conventional recycled glass products and is more environmentally sustainable than traditional recycling. <br /><br /> “While using considerable less energy has been an integral part of our value proposition since our inception in 1992, making this energy renewable was a next logical step”, says Oscar Wientjes, CEO of The Green Glass Company. “By using reclaimed bottles and other reclaimed materials for our unique glass ware using renewable energy, The Green Glass Company not only practices a reclamation and conservation policy but also actively promotes re-purposing as a viable and sustainable way of living.”

The Hanover Theatre for the Performing Arts is a fully restored, 2300-person capacity theatre committed to bringing Broadway and other quality entertainment to the greater Worcester, Massachusetts, area. The theatre (originally the Poli Palace, 1903) is recognized on the National Register of Historic Places and is currently celebrating our fifth anniversary, ranked (by Pollstar) as one of the top 100 theatres, worldwide. Actively pursuing a more resource-concious workplace is one of the theatre's goals. The theatre's Green Initiative is driven by our commitment to innovation, sustainability and contribution to the greater community. Partnering with local providers, we are the primary customer of a 1.2 megawatt solar farm. We were able to do this because the state of Massachusetts has one of the most progressive energy laws in the nation, requiring that utilities provide virtual net metering capability and services to organizations desiring to use green energy. Our advice to any group investigating this potential for sourcing alternative energy is patience. This is a fairly long process, in our case well over a year from concept to "going live". It was worth it. We will save significant money on our energy costs, be able to market ourselves as a Green Partner, and add one more component to our efforts to be the best neighbor possible. " We’re excited to have opportunities to utilize renewable energy for the majority of our needs. We’re proud that the theatre has had such a huge impact on Worcester’s downtown; and equally proud that it’s done so with a comparatively small carbon footprint," said Troy Siebels, Executive Director, The Hanover Theatre for the Performing Arts.

Macerich is sharply focused on sustainability as a long-term, fully integrated business approach. Our goal is simple: Create a healthy environment for our employees, tenants, guests and communities and sustain this environment for future generations. <br /><br /> Today we are committed to doing even more — to reduce our greenhouse gas emissions, energy use, water consumption, and waste generation by 10% by 2020. The key to achieving this goals is holistically and systematically through the Macerich Strategic Energy Plan (SEP) which is a combination of base-load management via fuel cells, electric load control via a centralized building management system, billed-usage monitoring, onsite energy reduction initiatives, tactical electric supply procurement, and large-scale Renewable Energy Credit purchases that augment solar generation. A pillar in our multipronged approach, onsite solar generation has grown from 100 kW DC in 2011 to over 7,700 kW DC in 2015. With nearly 11,000 MWhs generated and 25,000 MWhs of wind power through RECs, the Macerich portfolio of approximately 55 million square feet of GLA operated on more than 7% green power. In 2016 green power usage is expected to exceed 12% through the continued success of energy reduction programs, an additional 3,500 kW DC of onsite solar, and 35,000 MWhs of wind RECs already purchased. <br /><br /> Our approach to sustainability and social responsibility is comprehensive - engaging with the masses about renewables through interactive kiosks at our retail centers and social media, disclosing our renewable metrics through global reporting, and annually sharing our best practices with peers at the International Council of Shopping Center’s Retail Green and RECON. Macerich became an EPA Green Power Partner in February of 2016, and is proud to be the only Retail REIT (#20) in the Top 30 for On-Site Generation list. We are accountable, and we are responding with positive impact.

The Port Authority is committed to reducing energy use and dependence on fossil fuel-generated power to reduce Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions, increase electric supply diversity, and reduce operating costs. The Port Authority’s Sustainability Policy explicitly addresses the problem of global warming and ensures that the agency maintains an aggressive posture in its efforts to reduce GHG emission within the region; the Port Authority will continue to use its best efforts to reduce all GHG emissions related to its facilities, including tenants and customers, by 80% from 2006 levels, by 2050. The majority of these reductions will come from improvements made through new capital investments and changes in operations (e.g., lighting and HVAC system upgrades; fuel switching/renewable energy). In addition to projects installed/performed at Port Authority facilities, the agency employs indirect strategies for reducing its emissions – including, for example, purchase of carbon credits, Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs), and other tools. The Port Authority uses indirect strategies only to augment reductions achieved through capital investments and changes in operations. As part of the Port Authority Sustainability Policy, Sustainable Design Guidelines and Sustainable Infrastructure Guidelines have been adopted "to reduce adverse environmental impacts of the design, construction, operation and maintenance and occupancy or leasing of new or substantially renovated buildings and facilities, reconstruction projects, and programs." The policy applies to both Port Authority and tenant capital projects.

the Sage & the Butterfly is an extension of the ORG by vio brand, where we sell unique jewelry, accessories and artful tools that are ethical, handmade, sustainable, artisanal and fair trade. <br /><br /> ORG by vio is committed to creating and selling beautiful, earth friendly jewelry and wearable art, using sustainable practices. We work with Amazon rainforest artisans who live in fragile Amazon areas affected by extractive projects, logging, mass agriculture and cattle farming. Through our work, we help generate a sustainable income for the stewards of the forest and biodiversity, as an alternative to the sale of rainforest trees. <br /><br /> Our dedication to a healthy planet extends into every aspect of our business. Since the end of 2015, we purchase 100% wind and solar generated electricity for our location through RECs (renewable energy certificates), and since 2011, we have been using a wind-powered web hosting service for our websites.

The Sox Box is an athletic attire business built to give back to the society that allows us to operate and is part of our global family. At our warehouse, we now use 100 percent renewable energy, driven from wind and solar power. We decided to make the switch to renewable power primarily from our concern for the environment and effort to promote a sustainable business model. Going green is good for the environment, good for society, and makes good economic sense in the largest scope. The greatest benefit we have realized to date is the satisfaction of knowing that we are part of something good and an example of how business within society can lead and operate efficiently. “Building a sustainable business is simply a matter of doing what is right in its most sincere form,” says Vincent Suich.

The Sushi Bar is located in beautiful McCall, Idaho: an all-season tourist destination for outdoor activities just north of Boise. Surrounded by endless wilderness and wildlife, it is easy to see why we want to protect what we have. Along with being the only Green-Certified Restaurant in Idaho (dinegreen.com), we are proud to be an EPA Green Power Partner. This supports our commitment to mitigating any harmful byproducts from energy usage as part of the Food & Beverage industry—one of the largest consumers of energy in the commercial sector. We purchase 100 percent wind power via renewable energy credits (RECs) from regional wind farms. Wind power has one of the lowest total CO2 emissions per GWh generated of all forms of energy production, is much less harmful to wildlife than comparable fossil fuel based power generation, and is the driving force for a sustainable and healthy energy industry. Along with our commitment to green energy, we use the same sustainable approach to every aspect of our restaurant: recycling, composting, water conservation, local grass-fed beef, sustainable seafood, efficient operations, no harmful chemicals, supporting the local community, and food that is free of dangerous additives, GMOs, and other hazardous ingredients.

The school heavily monitors energy usage through an intensive automated system that allows for energy curtails as needed during high demand periods. All school lighting has been changed to CFL or LED. Taft also participates annually in the Green Cup Challenge energy reduction competition as a way of bringing energy use education to the entire community.

The University of Tulsa (TU) is a private Top 100 national university in Tulsa, Oklahoma, where the state-of-the-art Case Tennis Center hosts TU’s men and women tennis practices and competitions. The facility has hosted three NCAA Division I tennis championships. In partnership with Public Service Co. of Oklahoma, TU installed solar panels on the roof of Case Tennis Center in the summer of 2016. The 300-kilowatt system is estimated to generate the same amount of solar energy harvested by 75 residential structures. The implementation of solar power supports TU’s ongoing efforts to promote a campus culture of sustainability. “Initiatives such as this help reduce our carbon footprint and open the door for student and faculty research opportunities at TU,” said Susan Neal, TU vice president for public affairs, research and economic development. An energy source that is 100 percent renewable, clean and shared statewide, TU’s solar panel system is key to PSO’s new involvement in solar power generation.

Tile By Design (TXD) is an importer and wholesale distributor of ceramic and stone, providing a range of consultation services to trade professionals and the general public. TXD has purchased wind power since 2006. Initially, the company supported green power initiatives because it was the right thing to do and because it reinforced the environmental and health benefits of the products TXD sells. Since then, Tile by Design has expanded its environmental commitments - from sustainable business practices to sustainable lifestyles. TXD began with operational initiatives like energy, transportation, recycling, and buying green. The company now subsidizes gardening, tree planting, community agriculture, and home energy audits for its work partners. <br /><br /> "Green power has turned out to be a keystone for us, helping us to build and strengthen our business and community relationships," says Dan Emmel, President of Tile By Design. "My work partners continue to identify new ways to expand our environmental commitments and, in challenging economic times, we are finding they deliver a lot of bang for the buck."

The Town of Edmonston is committed in creating conscientiousness on the reduction of our carbon footprint and the impact on the environment. Since the creation of its Green Team, their members have been actively creating and designing new ideas and manners on how to conserve energy and reduce the impact of the town’s carbon foot print. The town has increased accessibility for bikers, walkers, and runners though out the town. Furthermore we have installed several bio retention and filtration systems on several streets that filter storm water that enters into the river. With the implementation of several greener initiatives we have been able to the stage for lasting green policy in Edmonston, giving faith to what has been deem our town motto “Green is not only our color, but our way of life”. The Town has added 2 electric vehicles to its fleet. A Nissan Leaf provides the Code Enforcement officer with a "green" vehicle to patrol the Town.

The Town of Ithaca is located at the southern tip of Cayuga Lake in Central New York, and is home to Ithaca College and Cornell University. The Town includes a mosaic of rural, suburban, and urban landscapes of approximately 20,000 people that surrounds the City of Ithaca. The Town hired a Sustainability Planner in 2010, and since then has become a regional leader in sustainability, committing to reducing GHG emissions from government operations 30% by 2020, and 80% by the year 2050.<br/><br/> The Town has been purchasing RECs since 2013 as a sensible short-term option to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. “As we scale up our energy efficiency and renewable energy efforts in the years to come, we can decrease the amount of RECs we purchase,” says Town Supervisor Bill Goodman. “For example, the Town is currently examining the possibility of developing a large solar PV array to provide power for municipal operations.”<br/><br/> “This is a great example of the Town government leading by example,” said Town Sustainability Planner Nick Goldsmith. “Residents and businesses can also purchase RECs at a very low cost to offset their own electric use, and pay for it on their normal utility bill. Through an initiative that is being discussed locally, called Community Choice Aggregation, this process could become even more accessible and affordable.”

Tree Frog Night Inn is a sustainably-built eco-inn nestled in tall cedars by a creek in Bellingham, WA. In siting the Inn, we chose a location that would minimize impact on our beautiful forest. We employed local contractors who used green certified and low or no VOC building and constructions products, including unique materials such as earth plaster lime and clay. We installed dual-flush toilets and radiant heat in the suites. The cottage exceeds insulation recommendations and is adorned with natural and sustainable finishes, such as wool for carpeting and blankets, tile for bath and flooring, paperstone for desks and end tables, sustainable hardwood for decking, organic cotton and down for most of the bedding, bamboo and marmoleum flooring, and organic cotton bath linens.<br /><br />Our new spa hot tub was built to the most stringent energy and water conservation standards, and we use ozone and non-chemical treatments. We installed energy saving appliances, and LED lighting. We use 100 percent green power sourced from wind power. <br /><br /> Every day, we use nontoxic and natural cleaning products, including organic shampoos and handmade soaps. We serve local, organic, and sometimes homegrown food for breakfast, wherever possible. We compost our food waste to be reused as soil. We even have a rain barrel system for capturing and reusing roof runoff water.

Fort Carson, an Army post that is 24,000 soldiers strong in Colorado, is known as the "Best Hometown in the Army – Home of America's Best." Because of its accomplished track record for sustainability, the Army selected Fort Carson in 2011 as one of its two installations to achieve net zero energy, water, and waste by 2020. To achieve net zero energy, Fort Carson fosters a culture that conserves energy, finds innovative ways to implement energy saving projects, and aggressively pursues renewable energy projects. Leveraging the expertise and resources that exist throughout the federal government, the local community, and industry has been a key strategy toward Fort Carson achieving its numerous net zero successes. <br/><br/> The Honorable Katherine Hammack, Assistant Secretary of the Army for Installations, Energy & Environment emphasized the Army’s commitment toward net zero energy when she said, "It's operationally necessary, it's fiscally prudent, and it's mission essential for us to make sure that we have energy security and can perform our primary mission for the United States." <br/><br/> Over the last 12 years Fort Carson has reduced its energy intensity from 125 kbtu/sf/year to 98 kbtu/sf/year. The Fort is currently using more than 14.7 million kilowatt-hours annually of qualifying green power. Fort Carson’s 39 LEED Silver buildings, 41 LEED Gold buildings and 2 Platinum buildings are the highest number of LEED certified facilities anywhere for a community its size.

The mission of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) is to provide leadership on food, agriculture, natural resources, rural development and nutrition. USDA is committed to fostering a clean energy economy; improving the environment by conducting operations in a sustainable and environmentally preferable manner; complying with applicable statutes, regulations, and Executive Orders; and leading by example. One way USDA has reduced its environmental impact is by powering its facilities with solar, wind, hydropower, biomass, and geothermal energy sources. In Fiscal Year 2013, USDA consumed 42 million kilowatt-hours of renewable energy. USDA has realized numerous benefits from using green power; specifically, USDA has been able to meet various regulatory and policy requirements, make the Department's operations more sustainable, and reduce its carbon footprint. USDA has learned that when deciding to use green power, agencies can start with a subset of their facilities and then expand once the benefits of green power become more readily apparent. <br/><br/> U.S. Department of Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack states that “At the center of our vision is an effort to increase domestic production and use of renewable energy.”

Uinta Brewing Company, which received honorable mention in the 2002 Green Power Direct Purchase Awards, is committed not only to brewing great beer, but to environmental stewardship. In addition to its energy-efficient facility, its support of local community organizations, and its emphasis on recycling, the brewery uses only renewable energy to cover its electricity needs. In July 2011, Uinta installed 126 Schott 235-watt module solar panels that supply about 15 percent of the electricity usage. The rest of the brewery's power comes from energy produced by wind power, purchased though credits. Uinta president and founder Will Hamill strongly supports the decision to invest in clean, renewable energy, despite the increase in the company's utility bill. Using the slogan "earth, wind and beer," Hamill believes that the environmental benefits strongly outweigh the costs and that consumers will be drawn to a product brewed by renewable energy.

Ulster County, under the administration of Ulster County Executive Mike Hein, has sought ways to substantially reduce the environmental footprint and increase the sustainability of our county government operations. Ulster County’s commitment to energy conservation, efficiency, renewable energy generation as well as purchasing renewable energy and offsetting over 100% of all direct and indirect carbon emissions has resulted in the first Carbon Neutral county government. In 2014, through Executive Order, the County made the dramatic leap forward to purchasing renewable energy certificates (RECs) to cover 100% of our annual usage. Since then we have exceeded that high standard and currently purchase RECs to offset nearly 150% of our annual electricity use. The County is committed to purchase RECs to cover all its electricity consumption through 2017. Ulster County will be going to construction on a large-scale (2.53MW) off-site solar array during the fall 2016. This will provide green power, via a power purchase arrangement, in excess of 25% of the County’s total usage.

Faced with the challenge of climate change and the need for human development, we want to move towards a world where everyone can live well and within the natural limits of the planet. That’s why at Unilever our purpose is ‘to make sustainable living commonplace’. We want to play our part in tackling climate change and reduce the depletion of natural resources. It makes business sense to reduce our risk by securing sustainable sources of supply for raw materials, to cut costs through reducing packaging materials and higher manufacturing efficiencies, and to appeal to more consumers with sustainable brands. <br /><br /> Recently, Unilever has set a new ambition to become ‘carbon positive’ in our operations by 2030 which includes sourcing 100% of our energy across our operations from renewable sources. Despite how challenging it is proving, we are committing ourselves to the goal of halving the greenhouse gas impact of our products across the lifecycle by 2030.

Union College, in Schenectady, NY, began in the fall of 2004 purchasing renewable energy certificates (RECs) in the form of wind power to cover a portion of its campus' power needs. In 2012 the college committed to purchasing RECs to cover 100 percent of its electricity usage."Sustainability is not merely a strategy for reducing the long-term costs of operating the campus," said President Stephen C. Ainlay. "It will also turn the campus into a teaching tool. As we enhance our programs in environmental studies, environmental science and environmental engineering, it's an opportunity for students and faculty to monitor our progress and develop new efficiency measures. I know the entire Union community is devoted to create a more efficient campus." In addition to the renewable energy generated onsite that is included in this profile Union College also makes use of solar thermal and geothermal energy. Although the solar thermal and geothermal energy systems do not produce electricity, their use for reheats and domestic hot water allows for a considerable electricity usage avoidance. For example in June 2013 the Peter Irving Wold Building had 78,584,488 BTU or 23,030 kWh of energy available via the ten geothermal wells and 928,667 BTU or 15.44 kWh via the solar thermal system.

UNFI is a leading independent national distributor of natural, organic and specialty foods and related products. The company has committed to producing and purchasing clean, renewable energy for its distribution centers and office buildings for a portion of its electricity consumption, and they are seeking additional ways to incorporate green power into its business activities. UNFI’s concern for the environment, including its deep focus on environmental stewardship, has been the main driver of its sustainability initiatives. Tom Dziki, UNFI's Senior Vice President of Sustainable Development, says "Through our efforts as an environmentally-conscious organization, we continue to increase our production and procurement of clean, renewable energy, while remaining committed to managing costs and improving shareholder return. Investing in renewable energy is the right thing to do, and it’s been an enjoyable process to formally commit ourselves to a high level of environmental integrity through this Green Power partnership program." <br /><br /> According to UNFI, their investments in onsite solar power generation have exceeded expectations, and they find that purchasing RECs is an easy and often inexpensive way to also invest in green energy. The company has saved thousands of dollars through its use of clean power, but they believe that the environment has been the biggest benefactor of their green power commitments. Moreover, the company-wide commitment to sustainability is inspiring associates across the organization. Seeing the economic and environmental returns from clean power, people throughout the company are more supportive of additional projects that help protect both the environment and company’s bottom line.

Randolph College is a liberal arts college in Lynchburg, Virginia, that partnered with 4 other institutions and the Council for Independent Colleges in Virginia (CICV) to purchase green power from a company specializing in landfill gas recovery. Randolph purchases green electricity through a contract that locked prices for a period of 12 years, which allows the College to accurately plan its energy budget from year to year and to avoid surprises that sometimes arise when rates jump. This budget-friendly feature was a big factor in the decision to switch over to green power, but was not the only reason. The College was really keen to put its mouth where its words are and to help pave the way for other organizations and individuals who want to purchase green power in the State. Additionally, students who attend Randolph College can visit the power facilities and learn about career opportunities in the field.

Redhook was born out of the energy and spirit of the early 80s in the heart of Seattle. While the term didn’t exist at the time, Redhook became one of America’s first “craft” breweries. From a modest start in a former transmission shop in the Seattle neighborhood of Ballard, to the current breweries in Woodinville, Wash., and Portsmouth, NH, Redhook has become one of America’s most recognized craft breweries. The Redhook Brewery & Pub is committed to sustainability. We are guided by our "complete circle philosophy" to reduce waste and recycle or reuse the resource whenever possible. Redhook has purchased Renewable Energy Credits to offset the electricity used at 100% of the facility, including the new public electric vehicle charging station, making Redhook's Portsmouth brewery one of the greenest places on the Seacoast. The brewery also has several environmental and socially responsible initiatives planned, including a project to capture and utilize biopower generated on-site.

The Sisters of St. Francis of the Holy Cross is a Catholic religious order in Green Bay, Wisconsin. In 2014 the Sisters of St. Francis decided to install a 112 Kilowatt photovoltaic system to decrease by 30% their electrical use from the local power company and reduce their carbon footprint. The Sisters of St. Francis have a long history of using their resources wisely, living sustainably and caring for the earth. Installing solar was a concrete way to show that as followers of St. Francis they are concerned about care for all creation. Thirty percent of their electrical energy is completely green and renewable which is good for the Sisters and good for the earth. The Sisters have a mission of education so they also want to educate others about solar and renewable energy. The solar site is open to visitors for self-guided tours from Monday through Friday. A grass path leads visitors past the 416 panel array in a large meadow behind the convent. Along the path are seven plaques with information about the project and solar energy. The Sisters also invite those interested in solar energy to view their real time meter at <a href="http://www.gbfranciscans.org/">www.gbfranciscans.org</a> to see the energy savings.

The State of Delaware secured a renewable energy carve out of 40 percent in its 2016 aggregate electricity supply contract with over 76 government and civil organizations statewide, and a total of over 1,800 separate electricity billing accounts. Through Executive Order 18, signed in February 2010, Governor Jack Markell challenged state government to lead by example in the areas of energy efficiency, renewable energy, recycling, clean transportation, and environmentally sensitive procurement. As part of this effort, the Governor set targets to address greenhouse gases associated with electricity consumption in state facilities through the use of clean, renewable energy. Through aggregating load with non-state agency partners and aggressively procuring our supply on the open market, the State secured attractive electric supply rates that include an abundance of renewables, including Delaware located renewables.

http://www.illinois.gov/gov/green/Pages/default.aspx
The government of the State of Illinois provides essential public services to the over 12 million residents of the State as well as to the commercial community of Illinois. As such, the State has historically perceived itself as being obligated to integrate fiscal prudence, technological advancement and environmental stewardship into its standard business practices. Over the last year, among the ways the State of Illinois has achieved this is through the procurement of green power supplies. Illinois increased its green power use from roughly 21 million kilowatt-hours in the Fiscal Year ending June 30, 2008 to approximately 88 million kilowatt-hours in the year ending in June 2009. By the year ending December 31, 2014, Illinois green power purchases totaled approximately 153 million kilowatt-hours. Through operational, seasonal load and space allocation economies, our overall building-based electricity usage has declined from roughly 612,521,000 kWh to approximately 476,434,356 kWh. Within the context of its overall power procurement activity, the State found that it could increase its green purchases from less than 5 percent of overall supplies to 32 percent and still enjoy steep savings over our previous prices. In addition to our direct green power purchases, the State of Illinois has also advocated for and funded the development of projects to improve the availability of green energy supplies within its borders. Over the past three fiscal years, the State has provided about $13 million in grant and rebate support to residential, commercial, government, and non-profit entities to install on-site renewable energy systems. Spurred by this support, today Illinois is home to over 2,700 megawatts of wind generation capacity, enough to power 750,000 homes with clean, emissions-free electricity. The State has extended its purchasing levels throughout Calendar Years 2013 and 2014. Unfortunately, due to fiscal challenges in FY 2015, we have been forced to sharply reduce spending in all areas of State government, including the purchase of green power. We will explore cost-effective opportunities to resume our support of green power purchasing in the future within the context of responsibly managing the ongoing fiscal crisis facing the State.

The State of New Hampshire owns about 700 buildings within the state, including a state hospital, many retail liquor stores, regional Department of Transportation support facilities, IT centers, and labs, along with the standard office buildings that are required to operate state government. From these buildings, the state aggregates over 500 of the largest electricity accounts and purchases electricity for them through a competitive bidding process. As part of this process, the state requests pricing to obtain 25 percent of this power from renewable sources to help meet the Governor's initiative of reducing the state's dependence on fossil fuels. This year the State expects to purchase approximately 26 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) of renewable power. The State is doing more; construction was recently completed on a biomass cogeneration facility and hydro plant that will serve one of the State's off-grid facilities. Generating its own green power will result in significant savings to the state both in energy costs and impacts to the environment. Solar PV is also entering the mix with the first significant installation on a state-building approved for 2016. This system will be approximately 100 kW in size and offset the power used onsite.

The driver behind its decision was to move toward the set objectives of the President's Climate Commitment, as well as do the right thing for the environment. One lesson learned during the green power purchase was to phase in the purchasing commitment to lessen the budgetary impacts. The College feels perhaps the biggest benefit has been the example that it set for its students by demonstrating a commitment to bettering the environment.

Dance Exchange is a professional company of dance artists that creates, performs, teaches, and engages people in making art. Since its start in 1976, and in each encounter, the Dance Exchange asks four questions: Who gets to dance? Where is the dance happening? What is it about? Why does it matter? The Dance Exchange answers these questions by pursuing a range of interrelated goals: to create groundbreaking new dance works; to implement innovative educational programming; and to collaborate on effective community engagement projects. The Dance Exchange specializes in non-fiction dancing, and recent work has focused on land use, energy, and even wind power. The organization partners with many groups committed to environmental preservation and community health. The Dance Exchange's management policies are very much in tune with this artistic work. The organization's leadership thinks a lot about current issues like sustainability and energy conservation and wants to be as responsible as possible in its physical space. In addition to purchasing renewable energy certificates, the Dance Exchange also prints on recycled paper and is involved in a comprehensive community recycling program.

The Evergreen State College's commitment to sustainability and green power is clear with the college's exceptional commitment to 100 percent green power usage on campus. The campus Clean Energy Committee comprises a coalition of student groups who lead this effort and college staff for support. Evergreen students voted overwhelmingly in December of 2004 to go green -- establishing a student fee of one dollar per credit to purchase green power from renewable sources in the northwest region through the utility's Green Power program, putting theory into practice. The revenue collected from the student fee covers the cost of 100 percent of campus electricity being green. In a unique move, students also proposed that ten percent of the revenue collected from the student green energy fee be invested to fund campus projects advancing renewable energy. The student proposal was approved by Evergreen's Board of Trustees as a part of the college's biennial budget in June, 2005. In addition, the college has reduced energy consumption through conservation and capital initiatives. Without normalizing for growth in conditioned area and changes in enrollment, the college has reduced energy consumption more than 18 percent in the past five years.

Universal City, the gateway to Randolph Air Force Base, is celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2010. Located just 2 miles outside of San Antonio, Universal City has a population of 20,000. Ten percent of the total electricity consumed in Universal City comes from clean wind energy, with over two percent of the community participating in the green power purchasing program. The City and its residents have an expressed desire to reduce its dependency on energy sources that impact the environment. Renewable energy, such as wind power, provides a reliable and affordable means to that end. “I’m overwhelmed with the residents’ commitment to partner with the City on the purchase of renewable energy” said Mayor John Williams. “It took less than one year to fulfill the requirements to become a Green Power Community. It is impressive to know that so many people understand the need for clean energy and can come together so quickly to make it a reality. Universal City is a clean energy leader in Texas and it is our hope that other Texas communities will follow our example.”

The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign is proud of its sustainability initiatives, as documented in the campuswide Illinois Climate Action Plan. One of the most important and challenging initiatives is a shift from conventional energy to a future of renewable energy. Various renewable energy projects have been implemented since signing the Second Nature Climate Commitment in 2008. The first project was a 32.76 kilowatt (kW) solar photovoltaic (PV) array on the roof of the Business Instructional Facility in 2008. The 14.7 kW PV array at the Building Research Council is a research platform for the Illinois Center for Smarter Electricity Grid. Solar thermal panels on the Activities and Recreation Center roof heat the indoor and outdoor swimming pools. In April 2014, campus purchased 20,000 renewable energy certificates (RECs) from Midwest Independent Systems Operators (MISO) wind power for fiscal year 2015. The most significant on campus renewable energy generation project went into commercial operation in December 2015, with the completion of the 4.86 megawatt (MW) Solar Farm. The Solar Farm will produce an estimated 7,860 MW-hours/year, and it is expected to generate up to 91% of its original output even in Year 20 of the project. F&S is monitoring the efficiency of the Solar Farm, compared to the design specifications, and in February 2016 the Solar Farm produced 100.2% of the anticipated electricity for that month. Additional rooftop solar projects are in progress, a small biomass boiler is under construction, and campus is now routing a Wind PPA for signature for 25 million kWh/year starting September 1, 2016.

Green Power Leadership Award 2005
http://www.morris.umn.edu/sustainability/renewable/
University of Minnesota, Morris (UMM) is actively working to increase the amount of renewable energy that it produces on-site. UMM's goal is to produce more energy than it consumes. Currently, two 1.65 megawatt (MW) wind turbines provide power to UMM. The first turbine was erected in 2005. It was also the first large-scale turbine installed at a public university in the United States. It was erected by the U of M West Central Research and Outreach Center. The second turbine was erected in 2011 by UMM. The combined output of the turbines is roughly 10M kilowatt-hours (kWh) per year. The Morris campus uses about 5M kWh of wind-generated electricity and the remaining 5M kWh are sold to the local power company as green electricity to help them meet their RES requirement (25% by 2025 in MN). In total, about 70% of UMM's electricity is from wind. In addition to wind turbines, Morris also has an on-campus biomass-gasification combined-heat-and power plant (via a backpressure steam turbine), solar PV, solar thermal, and green buildings. The biomass plant steam turbine also produces thousands of kilowatt-hours of electricity. Students have been the catalysts for change at Morris. A decade ago our students worked to purchase wind power on campus. Because of their advocacy, UMM now has many renewable energy and conservation systems on campus.

http://www.ou.edu/content/sustainability/currentpractices/windpower.html
The University of Oklahoma (OU), located in Norman, is a regional leader and role model for other large public universities, setting a national example for green power use in states with less experience with renewable energy. In September 2008, in concert with the American College and University Presidents’ Climate Commitment (ACUPCC), OU and the Oklahoma Gas & Electric Company (OG&E) signed a historic agreement to purchase 100 percent of the university's OG&E-supplied electricity from renewable resources by 2013. This agreement was critical in enabling the development of the 101-megawatt OU Spirit Wind Farm in Woodward, Oklahoma, which now supplies electricity to the university and to customers across the state. The infrastructure (i.e., transmission lines and substations) created by the agreement has expanded OG&E's ability to provide renewable electricity to other customers. <br/><br/> As the first institution in Oklahoma to sign the ACUPCC, the school played a pioneering role in pledging to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. As of January 2013, one hundred percent of OU’s purchased power comes from wind, setting a standard for other large state schools. In conjunction with its green power use, OU is undertaking a myriad of energy efficiency upgrades such as installing occupancy sensors for classroom lighting and retrofitting existing buildings, as well as developing water-efficient restroom facilities and instituting a campus-wide recycling program. OU has also launched an Advanced Metering Infrastructure program to customize and manage energy demand across campus. All of OU’s electric use is monitored by smart meters. <br/><br/> At the same time, OU is reaching out to stakeholders interested in green power options through its website, press releases, and social media, and the school plans to host green energy tours both on campus and at the OU Spirit Wind Farm. Students, faculty, and staff are engaged in the school’s sustainability work through the Crimson and Green campaign, which champions OU’s efforts in energy efficiency, wind power, green roofs, recycling, and other environmental actions and encourages campus-wide participation.

Green Power Leadership Award 2002, Partner of the Year 2003, Partner of the Year 2008
https://www.sustainability.upenn.edu/sustainability-themes/conserving-energy
The University of Pennsylvania is a member of the Green Power Leadership Club, a 2002 Green Power Leadership Award winner, and a 2003 Green Power Partner of the Year. The University became the nation's largest nongovernmental purchaser of wind power on Earth Day 2003 when it announced that it would double its wind power purchase, the highest nationally at that time, to 40 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) annually. Penn also extended the length of its initial contract from three to ten years, becoming the wind energy industry's first customer with a 10-year renewable energy certificate contract. This purchase provided the long-term financing that made possible the construction of a new 12-turbine, 20-MW Pennsylvania wind farm. <br/><br/> In 2008, Penn increased its renewable energy certificate purchase to over 190 million kWh, and since 2010 has purchased at least 200 million kWh of wind power annually, remaining among the nation's top purchasers of wind power among all colleges and universities. The University is funding its historic wind power purchases with savings achieved through aggressive energy conservation and widely adopted behavior change. Over the past few years, the University reduced peak electric demand by 18 percent and its overall demand by over 5 percent compared with its 2007 baseline, despite a growth in campus area of over 2 percent.

UW Credit Union, based in Madison, Wisconsin, is a federally-insured financial institution and a leading provider of a full range of financial services to University of Wisconsin communities. One of the credit union's corporate social missions is to be a good community member, which entails seeking to reduce the environmental impact of their operations. In 2008, UW Credit Union took the City of Madison Mpower pledge, and as part of that committed to buying electricity that was generated using renewable resources. Today, they purchase 100% green power for all branches operated by UW Credit Union. By virtue of this action, the organization has been able to spread awareness about the advantages of purchasing green power to its community, and has done its part to reduce the City of Madison's overall carbon footprint. Along the way, UW Credit Union has learned the importance of building margin into its green power purchasing budget to respond to price fluctuations. As Brad McClain, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, says, "We take our role as a responsible community member seriously. Our leadership team's philosophy is to 'do the right thing.' By purchasing green power, we're able to do the right thing for our community, for our members, and the environment."

As the primary provider of public transportation in the San Antonio region with a fleet of over 580 revenue vehicles including 38 CNG, 138 LPG, 30 hybrid, and 3 fully electric vehicles, VIA Metropolitan Transit has long recognized its role as a steward of the environment and constantly works to reduce fleet emissions. VIA is in the process of replacing all diesel buses with CNG buses, and the agency uses the latest in alternative fuel technology whenever possible. In addition to fleet and fuel choices, the decision to purchase 100% Windtricity solidifies VIA’s commitment to reducing pollution and supporting the development of renewable energy sources. Until recently, San Antonio was the largest city still in compliance with air quality standards. Despite the city's best efforts, the ground level ozone amount has been above the EPA’s threshold for NAAQS for the past few years. Because San Antonio will inevitably be designated a non-attainment region, VIA believes it is vital to work with its partners to continue to improve air quality. Finally, in January 2016, VIA earned an ISO 14001:2004 certification from the International Standards Organization (ISO) for its proactive sustainable efforts controlled through its ESMS, further demonstrating VIA's commitment to pollution prevention.

The Victor Valley Wastewater Reclamation Authority operates a resource recovery facility for more than 300,000 residents in the High Desert region of Southern California about 80 miles east of Los Angeles. VVWRA treats an average of 10.7 million gallons of wastewater every day. The vast majority of the wastewater is treated to Title 22 standards and recycled by being released into the local river basin to recharge downstream aquifiers.VVWRA is commited to effectively handling its natural resources and using them in an environmentally responsible manner. VVWRA has an innovative Waste to Energy program that is currently providing more than 90 percent of the plants energy needs. VVWRA captures naturally occuring methane or biogas and uses it to power a pair of 800 kwh generators. Energy has been one of VVWRA's biggest expenses, so the move to green power was motivated in big part by the need to cut the costs of natural gas and electricity. The switch to methane immediately saved VVWRA $40,000 a month in natural gas expenses. VVWRA is also saving energy costs with a power purchase agreement that keeps electricity rates at a much lower level than currently offered by our local utility.VVWRA is currently exploring other options to generate green energy including solar. These would offset the cost of power needed to operate two new water recycling plants currently under construction. VVWRA plans to become a completely energy neutral facility in the near future, with the ultimate goal of being a green energy exporter in the coming years.

Since opening Victory Brewing Company in 1996, Bill Covaleski and Ron Barchet have emphasized environmental responsibility. The art of brewing is an age-old tradition that showcases the marriage between humans and the natural environment. From the cultivation of hops and barley to the water used to produce the beer, it is clear that great beer comes from great ingredients and great ingredients are grown from healthy environments. It is from this belief that Victory Brewing Company has chosen to purchase 100% green electricity for our state of the art brewery in Parkesburg, PA. The purchase and use of green energy ensures the sustainability of both the environment and our business into the future.

Over the last 3 years we have helped save 5 million tax forms from hitting the landfill. We didn't start out with this in-mind, but our clients and employees enjoyed that aspect of the business. So we asked ourselves what else can we do. We have solar panels used for charging stations and to run small appliances as the weather in Michigan allows and continue to find ways to cut down on energy use and costs.

The Washington Ethical Society (WES) is a humanistic congregation that affirms the worth of every person. We nurture a sense of reverence and responsibility for each other and the earth. We have a vibrant Earth Ethics Team that leads our environmental stewardship programs. <br/><br/> Although we get about half of our electrical energy from the local grid, we effectively rely on wind energy through the purchase of wind renewable energy credits (RECs). We get the rest of our electrical energy from the solar energy system on our roof although our provider sells the solar RECs. We also use natural gas for heating. <br/><br/> We purchase wind RECs to avoid using electricity generated from coal and other fossil fuels, which emit global warming pollution as well as local toxic pollution. <br/><br/> Even before getting solar or wind energy, we led an energy conservation program at WES, switching to highly efficient fluorescent and LED technologies and control technologies to keep the lights off when they are not needed. <br/><br/> A tough lesson in this process was in realizing that we cannot claim the solar energy portion of our electrical energy supply as the solar RECs had been sold. We hope to address this issue in the future.

The Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission (WSSC) is the 8th largest water and wastewater utility in the United States. It currently uses more than 61 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) per year of green power, providing approximately 30% of its electricity, in the form of wind and solar power. <br/><br/> WSSC locked in a fixed price for generation over a 10 year period by committing to a long term purchase power agreement (through its supplier) with a 29.1 MW wind farm developer in Somerset County, Pennsylvania in 2008. WSSC takes 85% of the hourly output generated by the wind farm, which compliments their real time purchasing strategy for brown power. WSSC's 85% wind portion reduces carbon dioxide emissions by 38,000 tonnes/yr, sulfur dioxide by 580,000 lb/yr, and Nitric Oxide by 188,000 lb/yr. <br/><br/> In 2012, WSSC negotiated a Purchase Power Agreement with Washington Gas Energy Systems to design, build, own and operate two 2 MW solar photovoltaic power systems at wastewater treatment plants in Prince George's and Montgomery Counties. The project was completed and the systems became operational in November 2013. The two solar installations are expected to save the Commission approximately $3.5 million over the life of the 20 year contract.

Weber State University (WSU) became a signatory of the American College & University Presidents' Climate Commitment in 2007. In 2009, WSU completed and adopted its first Climate Action Plan. In this plan, it is stated that WSU's vision is to become carbon neutral by the year 2050. The plan states that "to achieve this vision, Weber State University will initiate and aggressively pursue programs that address energy consumption through demand reduction, energy efficiency, conservation, and exploitation of alternative energy sources." Since the adoption of the Climate Action Plan, WSU has been working diligently to implement energy-efficiency/conservation projects and to construct or purchase green power. In Fiscal Year 2011, WSU purchased more than four million kilowatt-hours (kWh) of renewable energy through Rocky Mountain Power's Blue Sky Program. Over the past year, WSU has also completed four solar projects: two solar PV projects and two solar thermal projects that are anticipated to produce nearly 500,0000 kWh annually. Weber State has also aggressively pursued energy conversation measures. Since 2009 Weber State has reduced energy consumption by 30 percent.

WUMC, a non-profit religious organization, has existed in some form and in various locations in the Yakima Valley since 1872; at its current location has served as a place for gathering in worship, celebration, and learning since 1955. It has also served the local community as the largest private recycling center in the county for over three decades. The church’s mission statement is Serving Christ, Community, and Creation (preserving creation as one its three mission pillars). WUMC's congregation upholds a strong stewardship mission including a highly motivated "Green Team" dedicated to conservation-driven projects and programs. We are a member church in Earth Ministry's Greening Congregation program. In 2009 we began the pursuit to reduce our carbon emissions, slow global warming, and create electrical power from a nearly inexhaustible resource (the sun) to achieve our mission. We installed a new HVAC system, replaced lights with LEDs, and replaced windows with double pane products increasing our emery efficiency dramatically. We use ceramic cups during our coffee hour and cloth napkins at church potlucks, etc., thus lessening our use of styrofoam and paper products. We studied the efficacy of solar power. With our highly visible location and our public forums on environmental sustainability, we demonstrate creation care to our community. In 2012, the solar project moved forward with approvals from the Church Council. On May 2, 2013, the initial 8-panel system was commissioned. Performance after one year exceeded expectations, and in Spring 2015, we were able to expand the system by 14 panels producing even more energy and incentive benefits to our church. This success encouraged our desire to continue to move forward. In 2015 we applied for and received a Pacific Power Blue Sky Grant allowing us to expand to our current 56-panel project. The commissioning Solarbration of our now 15.44 kW solar system was held Earth Day, April 22, 2016.

The Western Pennsylvania Energy Consortium aggregated the GL and GM rate class accounts of the City of Pittsburgh, Allegheny County, Pittsburgh Water & Sewer, The Sports and Exhibition Authority, Pittsburgh Zoo & Aquarium and many more City Authorities and local Municipalities into one purchasing authority. The Consortium was originally formed to realize financial savings through electricity purchasing aggregation, but by using a reverse auction was also able to purchase green power for a significant portion of its power needs. In 2008 the Consortium purchased more than 11 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) of renewable energy, increasing that amount by 5 percent in 2010 and now totaling 30 percent in 2015. The Western Pennsylvania Energy Consortium demonstrates the success of the City and County jointly pursuing green practices, while at the same time saving taxpayer dollars. Purchasing green power not only cuts our carbon footprint, but helps to create a demand for renewable energy in this region, which will continue to grow the clean energy economy of southwestern Pennsylvania.

Green Power Leadership Award 2005
http://www.wwu.edu/sustain/operations/energy-climate/
Western Washington University's 2005 green power purchase made it the first higher education institution in the US to purchase RECs for 100 percent of consumed electricity. The Students for Renewable Energy campus group introduced the idea of purchasing green power in 2003. In the spring of 2004 the idea was placed before the student body and 85 percent voted in favor of the university purchasing green power. With support from the Board of Trustees, the purchase received final approval in 2005. Approximately 40 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) of RECs are purchased annually. In 2010, Western students approved raising the Green Energy Fee to fund on-campus sustainability projects including alternative energy production. “Western’s students, faculty, and staff continue to provide nationally recognized leadership in the fields of sustainability, alternative energy, and green-building design,” said WWU President Bruce Shepard. “We will continue to push these initiatives forward as we grow the next generation of environmental stewards right here on this campus.”

Westtown is a Pre K-12 co-ed Quaker day and boarding school, founded in 1799 and located in Westtown Township, near Philadelphia, PA. The school enrolls 630 students and employs 200 faculty and staff. As part of the school’s last strategic plan, a group of faculty leaders, trustees, students, and parents created a Sustainability Mission Statement which was adopted by the Board in 2007 and quickly led to the hire of a half-time Sustainability Coordinator. Since then, the school has cut electricity use by 18%, installed geothermal systems in eight campus buildings, erected a 44 kW roof-top solar array, sourced a growing percentage of food for the dining hall from local farms, recycled or composted 55% of campus waste, and supported a two-acre, student-powered organic farm. Sustainability topics are also taught in K-12 courses. The decision to purchase wind power for all of the campus' electricity in 2013 has reduced aggregate carbon emissions from electricity by 65% over 2007 levels. <br /><br /> Westtown was named a 2013 Green Ribbon School by the U.S. Department of Education and has been recognized by the Green Schools Alliance and the Delaware Valley Green Building Council. Head of School John Baird commented, “Our commitment to sustainability and energy stewardship speaks volumes about our concern for our students and the world they will inherit. We couldn’t be prouder of our progress in greening our campus and will continue to do all we can to ensure a safe and prosperous future for all children and for the ecosystems of which we are a part."

Wolf Creek Ski Area sees the importance of using renewable energy sources and feels that businesses should be setting an example in this area. For this reason, Wolf Creek purchases 100 percent of all power usage, mountain wide and year round, from a green power energy supplier, Tri-State Generation and Transmission, who in turn supplies the SLVREC, the local power company for Wolf Creek. This green power comes from two wind farms located near Medicine Bow, Wyoming. Although this energy is currently more expensive, Wolf Creek is making a substantial commitment in showing the need for sustainable business practices. Wolf Creek has been recognized by the Forest Service for subsidizing 100% of power usage with wind power.

Yolo County is producing more sustainable solar energy than we are using. We own and operate approximately 7 megawatts (MW) of green power which produces 23% more power than we use. Sustainable energy and environmental stewardship are the primary reasons Yolo County made the switch to green power. What Yolo County accomplished with sustainable energy can be duplicated by other counties, cities and municipalities as a zero capital investment, revenue generating project, and it will zero out electric bill. This projects biggest benefit is the positive effect on the environment, and in addition this project was developed specifically to teach K-12 children about the environment, climate change, harvesting the sun's energy, and coexistence with other species, all of which is included in the Environmental Education and Sustainability Park located in Yolo County, California.

Zotos International is proud to be an EPA Green Power Partner. The company generated approximately 2,500,000 kilowatt-hours (kWh) of on-site wind energy in 2015 at its manufacturing plant in Geneva, New York. Zotos' sustainability initiatives have been driven by consumer demand for green products, a desire to increase operational efficiency and reduce costs, as well as a moral imperative, as a beauty company, to create a more beautiful planet. Among the biggest benefits, and a major lesson learned, is how the company's commitment to sustainability drives innovation, both within Zotos and within its supply chain, enabling all parties to become more globally competitive. As a result, Zotos has increased efficiency, reduced costs, and created new jobs at its US manufacturing plant. <br><br> Our initiatives have transformed Zotos into one of the fastest-growing and greenest manufacturers in the global beauty industry, more consumers are demanding sustainable products, and as a beauty company, we have a moral imperative to meet this demand. All of us want a healthier and more beautiful planet, and we're proud to do our part.
