Toyoda Gosei Purchases RECs for Texas Wind

Toyoda Gosei North America Corporation (TGNA), a wholly owned subsidiary of Toyoda Gosei Co., Ltd., entered a 10-year renewable energy certificate (RECs) purchase and sale agreement.

TGNA, a global supplier of rubber and plastic automotive components and safety systems, signed with Eurus Energy America Corporation (EEAC) and its wholly owned subsidiary, Bull Creek Wind LLC, for RECs generated by the Bull Creek Wind Project, a 179-MW wind project located in Borden County, Texas.

The Bull Creek Wind Project will be undergoing a repower, with full completion of the repowering construction expected to be completed by the end of 2025. The repowering construction efforts shall be under the direction of Deutsche Windtechnik USA (DWT) through an agreement with Bull Creek Wind LLC.

The Bull Creek Wind Project intends to produce and provide TGNA with RECs for 10 years after completion of repowering. The RECs are expected to contribute to TGNA’s 2030 carbon neutrality goals by reducing significant amounts of CO2 emissions, which are estimated at 40,000 tons over the term of the RECs agreement.

“As a wholly owned subsidiary of the Toyota Tsusho Corporation, Eurus Energy recognizes the importance of contributing to the carbon-free activities of Toyota Group entities, including Toyoda Gosei. This project is a major first step in this direction,” said Hidenori Mitsuoka, President and CEO of Eurus Energy America Corporation, in a statement.
