Steelcase Inc., a global office furniture company, has become the first
REC buyer to sponsor a commercial-scale wind farm by making the first
known long-term purchase of all the RECs during a wind farm project's
financing stage. That is, without the purchase of ALL the renewable
energy credits RECs produced by the farm for at least the first five
years of its operation, the wind farm might not have been built.
