Ford Motor Company and DTE Energy purchased the largest renewable energy utility in U.S. history. The two companies will purchase more than 1,000 megawatts (MW) of renewable energy. It is enough to power more than 800,000 homes.
Renewable energy will come from a combination of wind and solar projects. It will power Ford's manufacturing and office facilities in Michigan.
The purchase is part of Ford's ongoing commitment to reduce its environmental impact. They want to increase the use of renewable energy. In addition, Ford has pledged to reduce its carbon emissions by 30 percent. They hope to do this by 2025.
