Clean Energy For Your Business
The environmental benefits of wind energy are well documented. But wind also makes good business sense. Here are some reasons why:
- Stable-priced Electricity:
Wind energy offers a hedge against future volatility and increases in commodity and energy prices. Natural gas prices are often at the mercy of the dynamics of supply and demand. Coal fluctuates based on overseas demand. We know all too well the effects of inflationary forces and political turmoil in oil-rich countries. By contrast, wind is stable and predictable. - Sustainability Marketing:
Apex allows you to work with a specific wind farm as your electricity source. This allows you to clearly demonstrate your commitment to reducing your company’s carbon footprint to an increasing base of environmentally-conscious consumers. - Environmental Credits:
Wind energy produces renewable energy credits associated with the project’s clean, emissions-free generation, enabling compliance with corporate goals and emissions regulations. - Reduced Regulatory Risk:
As stricter emission legislation and policies continue to advance, investments in wind energy can reduce your exposure to these regulatory risks and expenses.
We can meet directly with your team to assess whether your site is suitable for wind energy development, or we can work with you to set up a contract for the energy and renewable energy credits from our independent wind farms.
At Apex, we have a proven track record in creating renewable energy success stories for businesses using green fields as well as current and former industrial sites.
Industrial Site Development Potential
Apex Wind Energy is also a leader in the industrial site wind market. A typical industrial site:
- Can be located on former or active industrial, military, landfill, port or mining sites
- Includes between 7 and 50 turbines (or 15-to-100+-megawatts capacity)
- Involves a small group of corporate landowners who may be looking to generate additional revenue from unused or underutilized land, find a more affordable source of power, or further a corporate sustainability mission
- Is often located in power markets featuring attractive pricing, proximate load centers and available transmission capacity
- Generally allows for streamlined permitting, as sites are often not environmentally pristine
- Includes a pre-existing point of interconnection
- Has existing road infrastructure that minimizes the cost of the project.
While there may be additional challenges associated with past contamination at an industrial site, our team of professionals has experience with and an understanding of these complex issues. We have strong relationships with top-tier environmental consulting firms to ensure that the associated risks are addressed to the satisfaction of all stakeholders.
