Oklahoma State University announced today it is No. 5 on the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA's) Top 20 College & University list
of the largest green power purchasers. OSU is purchasing 110,000,000
kilowatt-hours (kWh) of green power annually, which is enough green power
to meet 67 percent of the electricity use on the university’s main
Stillwater campus. The university is buying a utility green power product
from Oklahoma Gas & Electric, switching away from traditional sources of
electricity generation and to cleaner renewable energy alternatives.



OSU entered into a 20-year agreement with OG&E to provide wind power to the
Stillwater campus in late 2011. Cowboy Wind Farm, a 26-turbine, 60-megawatt
facility near Blackwell, Okla., began generating 67 percent of the campus’s
electricity on Jan. 1, 2013.
