Whirlpool announced that it has entered into a second wind Virtual Power Purchase Agreement (VPPA) with ENGIE North America to accelerate the progress towards its commitment to reach Net Zero by 2030. The contract includes 53 megawatts of clean, renewable wind energy over 12 years.

“Building on our long history of improved environmental performance, Whirlpool Corporation is accelerating our commitment to sustainable operations through investments like these VPPA agreements in off-site renewable energy, manufacturing plant retrofits, and ongoing energy, water, and waste reduction projects,” said Sr. VP of Corporate Relations and Sustainability Pam Klyn.
