BU-Supported Wind Farm Generates Clean Electricity
BU is buying clean energy from the South Dakota wind farm that the University enabled, fulfilling a goal of our Climate Action Plan. BU will buy 205,000 megawatt hours of electricity annually for 15 years from wind farm developer, builder, and operator ENGIE North America. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) says BU has the largest single, active, clean power purchase agreement out of the 126 colleges and universities in the EPA’s Green Power Partnership, a consortium of organizations that voluntarily commit to clean power.
