Freight Farms Partners With Renewable Energy Provider, Broker To Offer Green Energy To Its Customers

Freight Farms, a provider of hydroponic vertical container farming, and Arcadia, which among other services provides a monthly subscription service that connects customers across the U.S. to clean energy, have partnered to provide Freight Farms' U.S. customers with access to clean energy for their everyday operations.

"Without changing anything in their day-to-day farm operations, Freight Farms' customers can now connect their utility through Arcadia in two minutes. Upon connection, Arcadia will immediately begin matching 100% of the Freight Farm's electricity by purchasing an equivalent amount of wind and solar energy in the form of Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs)," the companies said

"Based on location and other factors, Arcadia can even help farmers save on their electricity bills, providing both a competitive and financial advantage to using clean energy for their business," the companies said

The companies said that memberships are available in two options for, "little to no cost" based on location:

• "As enabled by state law, farmers located in MA, RI, NY, IL, CO, MD, and ME can sign up to access the community solar power market, and will see a reduction in their electricity bills."

• All other U.S. Freight Farmers can sign up for $5/month to access clean energy.
