Manufacturing with Renewable Energy

Approximately 85% of the utility serving Lombardi has it’s energy requirements met with hydroelectric power purchased from the New York Power Authority. This allows Lombardi to designate a portion of its US manufacturing as 100% renewable energy on a per-program basis. Hydroelectric power is classed as a renewable energy due to the fact that it relies on the Earth’s natural water cycle’s kinetic energy to generate electricity. With its 90% efficiency in converting the kinetic energy to electricity, and the fact that no fuels are burned and no direct emissions are released into the atmosphere, it is often considered as a very clean form of electricity generation.
