Nestlé Waters Signs Energy Agreement With Retail Supplier For Texas Facilities
October 22,2018
Nestlé Waters North America (NWNA), together with ENGIE Resources, announced they have signed a renewable energy agreement through which ENGIE will supply over 50 percent of the energy needed for NWNA's manufacturing and distribution facilities in Texas, in Travis, McLennan, Dallas, and Harris counties
The agreement will source energy from the Midway Wind Farm in San Patricio County, Texas
The agreement will include up to 70,500 renewable energy certificates (RECs) per year from Midway Wind, LLC.
Graham Leith, Senior Vice President of ENGIE Resources, said "In this case, NWNA took advantage of ENGIE's easyRE product, which allows our customers to take service directly from an existing renewable energy source. easyRE differs from traditional PPAs via competitive pricing, shorter contract terms, and right-sized volumes."
Earlier this year, Nestlé Waters North America transitioned its facility in Sacramento, California to 100 percent renewable energy, and announced, along with its parent company, a 15-year power purchase agreement with ENGIE Resources that will provide approximately 80 percent of the electrical load for five Nestlé facilities in southeastern Pennsylvania.
