Wellington Management and Enel Green Power form a Groundbreaking Renewables Initiative
Wellington, one of the world’s largest independent investment managers, has partnered with Enel Green Power and expects to become one of the first companies to match U.S. employees' office and home electricity use with renewable energy.
Procuring renewable energy for all US employees
Wellington operates in a business of risks and opportunities. They know that the risks of an unsustainable future are existential to markets and economies. They also are committed to being part of the solution on carbon emissions.
Wellington has entered a 10-year virtual power purchase agreement (VPPA) to procure a 11 MW portion of Enel Green Power’s Rockhaven wind project. This arrangement covers approximately 48 GWh of wind energy annually, which is expected to equal or exceed the electricity needs for all of Wellington's U.S. offices as well as residential electricity usage of more than 2,200 employees in the U.S.
This first-of-its-kind partnership represents an important step toward Wellington’s goal of deploying 100% renewable energy for its corporate operations in all available markets by 2022. We’re bullish on Wellington’s investment in its own sustainable future.
