“Through our preeminent use of renewable energy products, we are doing our part to reduce our nations dependence on fuels that contribute to climate change,” says George Milner, Senior Vice President, Energy, Environmental and Government Affairs, Mohawk Fine Papers.
In 2003, Mohawk became one of the first large-scale production facilities in the U.S. to offset its electrical energy with a renewable wind energy certificate purchase of 4 million kilowatt-hours. Since then, Mohawk has progressively increased its level of purchase to more than 100 million kilowatt-hours annually. This represents 100% of the purchased electric use for all of Mohawk’s manufacturing, converting and distribution operations in New York and Ohio. This purchase has placed the company on the EPA’s National Top 25 list of green power purchasers as well as its 100% Green Power Purchasers list.
