Business Wire
Wynright Corporation, a leading independent, U.S.-based provider
of intelligent material handling systems, announced today that it
has entered into a contract with Constellation Energy (NYSE: CEG)
to purchase Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) to match 10
percent of its electricity use at two facilities through March
2015.
The RECs supplied by Constellation Energy are Green-e Energy
Certified and sourced from wind energy facilities located
throughout the United States. Throughout the term of the contract,
10 percent of the electricity Wynright uses at its Elk Grove, IL
and Arlington, TX facilities will be matched with RECs.
“Building on our substantial investment in green technologies
and our development of sustainable systems for our clients,
Wynright is proud to continue its support of energy conservation
with Constellation Energy,” said Ken Dickerson, COO of Wynright.
“Through the purchase of RECs, Wynright and Constellation Energy
are teaming together to support the operation and development of
facilities that generate clean, renewable energy that replaces
emissions otherwise released through fossil fuel generation.”
Wynright has been an innovative leader in designing and
developing intelligent material handling systems that reduce sound
levels, extend equipment life, lower maintenance requirements and
use less energy. It uses energy-efficient welding,
computer-optimized layout and laser-cutting technology that reduce
waste, and low-temperature paint application processes that do not
have any chemical emissions. Wynright also provides its customers
with comprehensive energy audits and LED lights in controls.
Under the Constellation Energy program, each REC represents the
positive environmental attributes of 1 megawatt hour (MWh) of
electricity generated by a renewable power plant, and is retired on
behalf of customers wishing to promote their environmental
commitment.
“Constellation Energy is pleased to support the sustainability
goals of our customers,” said Michael Smith, senior vice president
of green initiatives for Constellation Energy. “Their voluntary
actions to help reduce pollution and encourage the use of clean
renewable fuels demonstrate a sincere commitment to the
environment.”
