Google, Microsoft and Wal-Mart have set 100% clean energy targets for parts of their businesses. As companies look to aggressively reduce their carbon footprint, some are taking the step of making direct investments in clean energy projects through contracts known as wind and solar PPAs, under which they buy electricity directly from clean energy generators.
