Safeway has announced that it will purchase 100% renewable energy to power the company's 270 fuel stations, 15 stores in San Francisco, and the Safeway corporate campuses in Pleasanton and Walnut Creek, California. It will become one of the largest buyers of green energy in the United States and an EPA "Green Power Partner." Under the partnership, Safeway has agreed to purchase 78 million kilowatt hours in the form of wind energy. This means it will become California's largest buyer of renewable energy. Safeway is also announcing a new organic product line marketed as "O" Organics in its stores. :: GreenBiz via TriplePundit
