Dallas hotels buy renewable electricity

Austin, TX— Green Mountain Energy Company is providing a cleaner, 100 percent renewable electricity product for two Hyatt hotel properties in Dallas – Hyatt Regency Dallas at Reunion and Hyatt Regency DFW International Airport. These two Hyatt hotels in Dallas are now the nation’s largest hospitality industry purchaser of renewable energy and one of two of Dallas’ commercial purchasers of 100 percent renewable electricity. This seminal partnership underlines clean electricity’s mainstream acceptance as the economical and responsible source of commercial energy.

The energy purchase helps these two Hyatt properties reduce their share of pollution from carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, a greenhouse gas that contributes to global warming. By buying renewable energy, these Hyatt hotels, each using an average of 1,416 megawatt-hours per month, will help avoid as much air pollution as is generated annually by more than 4,400 cars — equivalent to not driving approximately 55 million miles.
