As a part of Dow's Energy Plan and its Sustainability Goals, The Dow Chemical Company has taken another step towards reducing its own carbon "footprint." Marking milestone progress, Dow's Energy business has signed a long-term agreement with a new wind farm, currently under development in South Texas by a subsidiary of Bordas Wind Energy, LLC, a joint venture between MAP and Enerverse, LLC. The wind farm, to be complete in first quarter 2016, will span nearly 35,000 acres, and will supply Dow's Freeport Texas Manufacturing facility with 200 MW of wind power annually, equivalent to the amount of electricity needed to power more than 55,000 homes.
