The
Vestas-backed
non-profit
organisation
will
accept
three
routes
by
which
firms
using
the
WindMade
label
can
procure
their
power.
These
are
via
ownership
of
a
wind
farm,
through
long-term
wind
power
purchase
agreements
(PPAs),
or
by
buying
“high-quality”
renewable-energy
certificates
(RECs)
through
WindMade-approved
schemes.
If
buying
their
own
wind
farm,
companies
must
finalise
the
purchase
less
than
two
years
after
the
facility
has
been
commissioned.
Likewise,
all
PPA
contracts
must
be
signed
within
two
years
of
the
turbines
being
commissioned
–
and
must
have
a
duration
of
at
least
five
years.
