April 18, 2006: EPA Headquarters to Use 100 Percent Green Power
WASHINGTON - The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has announced that 100 percent of its power consumption at its Washington, D.C., headquarters will be supplied by green, renewable power. In addition, the vast majority of energy at over 30 regional and laboratory facilities will come from renewable sources.
"America's energy supply tomorrow requires action today," said EPA Administrator Stephen L. Johnson. "For 35 years, EPA has been greening our nation's landscape. By committing to alternative, renewable power sources, the agency is meeting the President's call to green our nation's energy."
