Green Power Partnership
Fortune 500® Partners List
This list represents Green Power Partners that also appear on the Fortune 500® list. EPA's list of Fortune 500 Partners consists of 78 companies using more than 13.7 billion kilowatt-hours (kWh) of green power annually, which is equivalent to avoiding the carbon dioxide emissions from the electricity use of more than 1.4 million average American homes.

The Green Power Partnership works with a wide variety of leading organizations — from Fortune 500® companies to local, state and federal governments, and a growing number of colleges and universities. The following Top Partner Rankings highlight the annual green power use of leading Green Power Partners within the United States and across individual industry sectors.
Using green power helps reduce the environmental impacts of electricity use and supports the development of new renewable generation capacity nationwide. Usage amounts reflect U.S. operations only and are sourced from U.S.-based green power resources. Organizations can meet EPA Partnership requirements using any combination of three different product options: (1) Renewable Energy Certificates, (2) On-site generation, and (3) Utility green power products.
Usage figures are based on annualized Partner contract amounts (kilowatt-hours), not calendar year totals. These rankings are updated on a quarterly schedule. Find out how your organization can partner with EPA today! To view a top partner list, select from the chart below:
