Covestro, a supplier of high-tech polymer materials, today announced that four of its U.S. sites have reached net-zero Scope 2 electricity emissions through the allocation of Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs). This achievement is a result of Covestro’s existing virtual Power Purchase Agreement (vPPA) with Ørsted, a renewable energy leader in the U.S. market, headquartered in Denmark.

The Covestro U.S. sites Channelview, Texas, South Deerfield, Massachusetts, New Martinsville, West Virginia and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, have achieved net-zero Scope 2 emissions for electricity. The sites in South Deerfield, New Martinsville, and Pittsburgh have now even achieved complete net-zero Scope 2 emissions. The remaining certificates have been applied to Covestro’s Baytown, Texas facility.
