REC Supports United Salt’s Commitment to
Significantly Reducing CO2 Emissions
Priority Power Management, LLC (“Priority Power”), an
independent energy services provider offering smart energy
solutions and streamlined transitions to carbon neutrality, advised
and represented United Salt Hockley, LLC (“United Salt”) on a 100
percent renewable energy contract signed with TXU Energy to power
its salt mine in Hockley, TX and corporate headquarters in Houston.
United Salt is part of a family of companies with a long history of
producing high quality salts used in a broad variety of
applications. Their products are sold under the United Salt
Corporation brands.
United Salt will secure certified renewable Texas wind and solar
resources from TXU Energy to cover its energy usage. Over the life
of the contract, approximately 25 million kilowatt hours of
certified clean renewable energy will be supplied. This is
equivalent to the reduction of approximately 10,000 metric tons in
CO2 emissions or the annual electricity consumption of 1,900 homes,
according to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
Marcie Peters, President of United Salt Corporation said, “At
United Salt Corporation, we’re proud to advance the protection of
the earth’s natural resources. Sustainable business initiatives,
like reducing our carbon footprint, will help us meet the needs of
future generations. We’re delighted that products from the Hockley
facility will be produced with renewable energy, and we are proud
of their commitment to a cleaner environment.”
“When companies the size of United Salt transition to clean
energy, it has a huge impact on not just the environment but the
confidence the public has in the entire industry,” said John Bick,
Chief Commercial Officer of Priority Power. “We are excited to
continue to advise on sustainability solutions, because we know the
positive ripple effects they have from both the corporate and ESG
perspective.”
Gabe Castro, TXU Energy’s Senior Vice President of Business
Markets, said, “We applaud United Salt for being trail-blazers in
the salt production industry and taking this important step on
behalf of the environment and their fellow Texans. We have no doubt
this deal will be a building block for continued growth and success
in both their sustainability initiatives and their overall
business.”
