| Motorola Mobility obtains WindMade label Motorola Mobility has been awarded the WindMade certification label, demonstrating that 66% of the power used in its U.S. operations is covered by wind energy. WindMade is a global consumer label for companies that use wind energy and other renewables. The label, which is backed by the UN Global Compact and conservation group WWF, requires participating companies to obtain at least 25% of their electricity from wind power. Motorola Mobility's U.S. operations, however, achieve a much higher share, with 66% of the operation's power consumption covered by wind power. The WindMade label was created to allow companies to communicate their commitment to renewable energy while providing consumers with the choice to favor companies and products using wind power. Recent studies have shown that consumers around the world would prefer companies procuring renewable energy. WindMade certification supports Motorola Mobility's Green Energy vision to maximize energy efficiency and use of renewable energy sources such as wind and solar power. This vision is well aligned with that of its parent company, Google, which has invested over $990 million in renewable energy. write your comments about the article :: © 2013 Construction News :: home page |
