La ciudad usa 100 millones de kWh cada a\u00f1o, sumando aproximadamente el 15 por ciento de su consumo total de electricidad. Oregon State University es el mayor comprador individual de energ\u00eda verde en Corvallis, utilizando m\u00e1s de 51 millones de kWh de energ\u00eda verde para cubrir m\u00e1s de la mitad de su uso de electricidad.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLa gente de Corvallis ha adoptado la energ\u00eda limpia para ayudar a impulsar a su comunidad\u201d, dijo Merkley. \u201cA trav\u00e9s del compromiso y la cooperaci\u00f3n, los residentes, las empresas, la OSU y los l\u00edderes locales de Corvallis han convertido a esta comunidad en un ejemplo sobresaliente del uso de energ\u00eda limpia para el resto del pa\u00eds\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>La EPA tambi\u00e9n reconoci\u00f3 a la Ciudad de Portland como una \u201cComunidad de Energ\u00eda Verde\u201d, destacando los amplios esfuerzos de la comunidad para reducir su huella de carbono. Portland es la ciudad m\u00e1s grande del pa\u00eds en recibir la designaci\u00f3n y es la ciudad mejor clasificada en uso de energ\u00eda limpia.<\/p>\n<p>La compra colectiva de energ\u00eda verde de Portland de m\u00e1s de 675 millones de kWh equivale a sacar de las carreteras casi 93 000 veh\u00edculos de pasajeros por a\u00f1o.<\/p>\n<p>Intel Corporation de Oreg\u00f3n es el comprador voluntario n\u00famero uno de energ\u00eda verde en la naci\u00f3n. Durante el \u00faltimo a\u00f1o, Intel aument\u00f3 el uso de energ\u00eda verde en un 10 % a m\u00e1s de 1400 millones de kWh, lo que equivale a m\u00e1s de la mitad de su uso el\u00e9ctrico en los Estados Unidos.<\/p>\n<p>El Puerto de Portland ha comprado toda su electricidad, 75 millones de kWh, de la generaci\u00f3n e\u00f3lica. Adem\u00e1s, el propio puerto produce 30.000 kWh de energ\u00eda solar a trav\u00e9s de paneles instalados en el Aeropuerto Internacional de Portland.<\/p>\n<p>Seg\u00fan la EPA, las &quot;Comunidades de energ\u00eda verde&quot; se identifican como comunidades en las que el gobierno local, las empresas y los residentes obtienen colectivamente energ\u00eda verde en cantidades que cumplen o superan los requisitos de compra de la EPA. M\u00e1s de 30 ciudades y pueblos en Alaska, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Maryland, Oreg\u00f3n, Pensilvania, Texas, Utah, Washington y Wisconsin son comunidades de energ\u00eda verde. En conjunto, compran m\u00e1s de 900 millones de kWh de energ\u00eda verde al a\u00f1o, equivalente al CO2 del uso de electricidad de casi 80 000 hogares estadounidenses promedio.<\/p>\n<p>La energ\u00eda verde se genera a partir de recursos renovables como la energ\u00eda solar, e\u00f3lica, geot\u00e9rmica, biog\u00e1s e hidroel\u00e9ctrica de bajo impacto. Los recursos de energ\u00eda verde producen electricidad con un perfil ambiental superior a las tecnolog\u00edas de energ\u00eda convencionales y no producen un aumento neto de las emisiones de gases de efecto invernadero.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>La Agencia de Protecci\u00f3n Ambiental (EPA) nombr\u00f3 hoy a Corvallis como una &quot;Comunidad de Energ\u00eda Verde del A\u00f1o&quot;, una de las dos \u00fanicas en la naci\u00f3n.
