Clean Energy

Apex Clean Energy [website], located in Virginia, U.S.A., delivers optimized turnkey projects across the country executing in the fields of resource management, engineering, construction and asset management of utility-scale clean energy projects.

Starbucks, then Walmart and Smithfield in short succession announced significant renewable energy purchases that originated and were developed by Apex.

Walmart's purchase of 175 MW of wind energy over 15 years takes it another step closer to meeting its near-term goal of powering 50% of its operations with renewable energy by 2025

For Starbucks, the benefits of working with Apex start before a major project comes online, when its largest wind PPA transaction to date - 50 MW of clean energy over 15 years - will begin contributing to its carbon mitigation targets. Located in Texas and co-owned by Apex and Northleaf Capital Partners, it will provide over 1.5 million RECs to create a bridge to help Starbucks reach its RE 100 goal until the turbines at Diamond Spring begin to spin.

Smithfield, a U.S.-based global packaged goods and protein company, completed its first renewable energy purchase for 75 MW over 12 years, taking a significant stride toward its 25% reduction goal of greenhouse gas emissions by 2025. To help reach that goal, the company created Smithfield Renewables, a platform that unifies and accelerates its carbon reduction and renewable energy efforts.

Benefiting from one of the industry's deepest and most diverse pipelines of utility-scale wind and solar projects under development-and the ability to negotiate highly customized renewable power purchase agreements to meet the precise needs of corporate offtakers-Apex is in a strong position to capitalize on the fast-growing ESG movement to decarbonize corporate and industrial operations, and therefore, the U.S. electric grid.

Apex also offers solar expertise plus energy storage solutions, the latter either as a standalone product or as part of a renewable energy system.
