Renewable Energy - References and Guidance
Additional Guidance
The Energy Policy Act (EPACT) of 2005 defines "renewable energy" as electric energy generated from solar, wind, biomass, landfill gas, ocean (including tidal, wave, current, and thermal), geothermal, municipal solid waste, or new hydroelectric generation capacity achieved from increased efficiency or additions of new capacity at an existing hydroelectric project.
In addition, at least half of renewable energy used by the Federal government must come from new renewable sources (in service after January 1, 1999).
In FY 2009, UNICOR began to manufacture photovoltaic solar panels.
Identifies the applicable environmental program(s) and any minimum content levels (applicable to products containing biobased content or recovered materials only) recommended for federal purchases.
Lists sources where federal buyers may purchase the identified green product, including the applicable GSA Multiple Award Schedule, GSA Global Supply, AbilityOne, and UNICOR. Note that GSA sources do not currently identify Design for the Environment labeled products. Since not all products offered by these sources meet applicable green purchasing requirements, buyers must verify that products purchased meet the desired environmental criteria.
