AkzoNobel has signed a major new wind power supply contract with Eneco to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 19 kilotons a year. Paint and coatings made in the Netherlands will now be 100 percent green (not literally) for the multinational.
“This is an important agreement which secures the supply of sustainably generated electricity for some of our less energy intensive locations,” said Marcel Galjee, director of energy at AkzoNobel, in a statement. “It signals the next step in further reducing our CO2 emissions and demonstrates our commitment to resource efficiency, which was highlighted by the company’s recent number one ranking on the Dow Jones Sustainability Index.”
