America’s Top Corporate Green Power Users

by Kevin Humphrey on January 11th, 2006

AmericaYesterday I asked whether the news of the Whole Foods and Kinko’s green energy buys were the sign of a trend (see here).

Today, I came across a post at Andrew Luter’s Ego Ventures blog that provides some insight into who the top green power consumers in corporate America are.

  • Whole Foods Market Inc. - 458,000 Megawatts/Year
  • Johnson & Johnson - 295,000 MW
  • DuPont & Co. - 170,000 MW
  • Starbucks Corp. - 150,000 MW
  • IBM Corp. - 110,000 MW
  • Safeway Inc. - 78,000 MW
  • HSBC - 66,000 MW
  • NatureWorks LLC - 59,000 MW
  • Advanced Micro Devices Inc. - 52,500 MW
  • WhiteWave Foods - 49,500 MW

Andrew cites the Austin American Statesman, World Resources Institute, the EPA as the sources for his data in his post here.

Thanks to Shea for pointing out Andrew’s blog.
