About the 5 Year Renewable Energy Pledge
The 5 year pledge shows renewable energy developers and investors that there is strong, long-term demand for renewable energy among organizations that are not subject to policy mandates. These commitments from customers in the voluntary market help alleviate risk and provide certainty associated with renewable energy project development.
By pledging to purchase renewable energy for at least the next five years, these organizations help even more renewable energy projects get built.
The Goals of the Pledge:
- The Renewable Energy 5-Year Pledge: To see organizations across the United States make long-term voluntary commitments of five years or more to purchase renewable energy
- The Renewable Energy Triple-Double: To triple U.S. voluntary purchases of renewable energy by 2015. And then double that number by 2020. (From 2010 levels)
The Pledge Signatories have made a huge commitment and meet the following minimum energy requirements:

100,001 MWh or greater |

10,001-100,000 MWh |
