Kaeser joins Dominion Energy's Green Power Program
Engineering360 News Desk | February 22, 2022Kaeser Compressors Inc. is now part of Dominion Energy’s Green Power Program. This initiative aligns with Kaeser’s ongoing commitment to reducing, and where possible, eliminating impact on the shared environment. Through the Green Power Program, Kaeser pays a premium per kWh for its U.S. headquarters in Fredericksburg, Virginia, to match energy consumption with renewable resources.
And for 20+ branch locations across the country as well as its teleworkers, the company purchases Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) from Dominion Energy exceeding the amount of power consumed. Energy for the RECs is purchased from a broad range of national energy facilities such as wind, solar, biomass, geothermal, hydropower, wave/tidal power, and landfill gas and delivered to the power grid.
