Why Green Power Matters - How RECs impact project development and achieve sustainability goals
A free REMA webinar
Wednesday, June 27, 2PM ET

Description
Companies, governments, and citizens nationwide have made the decision to support green power by purchasing Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs). In fact, these voluntary purchases of green power are projected to exceed 133 million MWh by the year 2020, or enough renewable electricity for over 11 million homes. However, despite their decade-plus use in corporate sustainability efforts, branding, and financing new projects, RECs still encounter basic background questions.

Register for the REMA webinar (http://renewablemarketers.org/resource/webinars.asp) and hear from industry experts Blaine Collison, Director of the EPA’s Green Power Partnership, Bill Eddie, President of OneEnergy Renewables, and Kathy Loftus, Global Leader of Sustainable Engineering and Energy Management of Whole Foods as they describe what RECs are, who uses them, and how RECs help build more renewable generation. If your company is considering supporting renewable energy, this webinar is one of the easiest ways to quickly understand how RECs can help you meet your green power needs.
