Norwood Medical adds ENGIE Wind Power to Sustainability Commitment

DAYTON and HOUSTON – Feb. 5, 2025 – Norwood Medical LLC (Dayton) and ENGIE Resources LLC, a subsidiary of ENGIE North America (ENGIE), announce a five-year renewable energy contract. The agreement brings renewable wind energy from ENGIE to Norwood Medical’s headquarters campus in Dayton.

Under the terms of a five-year agreement, Norwood Medical will initially match 50% of its electricity consumption at ¬¬¬¬¬four locations, increasing its commitment to 100% for eleven buildings over the term, including approximately 120,000 Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) from ENGIE’s Priddy Wind Project in Texas.

Norwood Medical will procure Green-e® Certified RECs that will ultimately deliver the equivalent environmental benefits of avoiding the greenhouse gas emissions from 52 million pounds of coal burned, or 47,223 metric tons of CO2*. Green-e® RECs are certified by the non-profit Center for Resource Solutions to verify exclusive use of renewable electricity within an electricity market.

The agreement supports a Norwood Medical objective to reduce carbon emissions. “We have a goal of 50% reduction of scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2030 versus baseline year of 2021, and net zero by 2050,” said Jeremiah Allen, Vice President, Engineering. “Reducing our impact on the environment is vitally important. Leveraging renewable electricity will help us hit our goal to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 50% from 2021 levels.”

Serving as an advisor on this agreement is Statistical Energy (Dublin, OH). “We are proud to bring together two carbon champions,” said Michael Jackson, CEO/Partner, Statistical Energy. “This agreement is proof that renewable energy can be structured in a manner that addresses market volatility and meets the needs of a growing, commercial electricity customer with a commitment to reduce carbon through renewable energy.”

“Norwood asked us for a comprehensive analysis of their usage, plans for growth, historic prices and the forward fixed market. This led us to a structure with some market-based risk and float on the market, rather than to lock in a price now,” said Ron Cantlie, President/Partner at Statistical Energy. “Norwood chose optionality to lock in later, or not lock at all. It addresses the changing nature of supply and demand on the PJM grid.”

ENGIE announces Power Purchase Agreement with Google – Will supply power from its largest U.S. solar project to date

Latest deal builds on collaboration to accelerate the energy transition

HOUSTON – ENGIE North America (ENGIE) announced they recently completed a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with Google to supply 90 MW of renewable energy from its Chillingham solar project in Bell County, Texas. This agreement in the United States (U.S.) expands on ENGIE and Google’s prior collaborations in Europe and is the fifth renewable energy project under agreement between the two companies globally.    

To support its operations in Texas, Google will purchase a portion of the 350 MW facility’s output which is expected to commence operation later this year. The Chillingham solar project was developed by ENGIE, who will also construct and operate the project located north of Austin, Texas.

This agreement was facilitated through LEAP™ (LevelTen Energy’s Accelerated Process), which was co-developed by Google and LevelTen Energy to make sourcing and executing clean energy PPAs more efficient, and contributes to Google’s ambitious 2030 goal to run on 24/7 carbon-free energy (CFE) on every grid where it operates.

“We are honored to continue to expand ENGIE’s global relationship with Google, supporting their growth and delivery of their net-zero commitments” said Dave Carroll, Chief Renewables Officer, ENGIE North America “We are proud that ENGIE’s proven track record in developing, building and operating renewable assets puts us at the forefront of the energy transition. Chillingham solar clearly demonstrates ENGIE’s track record of consistently delivering quality renewables projects that meet the needs of customers such as Google – allowing us to collaborate together and meet their unique needs.”

“We’re pleased to further our collaboration with ENGIE with new carbon-free energy from its Chillingham plant that will supply our operations in Texas with clean power,” said Amanda Peterson Corio, Global Head of Data Center Energy, Google. “This agreement is another example of how using our scalable procurement approach is transforming the way the industry sells and purchases power, and ultimately speeds up the development of carbon free electricity.”

The Chillingham project has employed over 300 skilled workers during construction, many of them local to the region and will generate more than $72 million in tax revenues to support the local community over the life of the project. This includes some $53 million specifically for local school districts. Once operational, Chillingham, which will be ENGIE’s largest single solar project in the U.S. so far, will join the company’s portfolio of around 8 GW of renewable projects including solar, wind and battery storage in operation or construction across North America.

This power purchase agreement with Google contributes to ENGIE closing almost 1GW of signed PPAs in the U.S. for 2024 (YTD). ENGIE’s continued innovation in this space has resulted in the company being named as a top developer to sell corporate energy PPAs several years in a row.
