July 29, 2005—The US EPA has released an updated version of its Top 25 list of the largest US green power purchasers, which includes the following four new additions: HSBC (No. 7), Mohawk Paper Mills (No. 13), Starbucks (No. 22), and Syracuse University (tied for No. 23).
The US Air Force remains the top purchaser, followed by Johnson & Johnson, the largest corporate purchaser of green power. EPA and the World Bank hold steady in third and fourth place on the list, respectively. The current Top 25 Partners are buying or generating enough renewable energy to power more than 157,000 homes a year. Together, the Top 25 are using more than 1.7 million megawatt hours of green power annually.
