Google to use wind energy

Google energy unit has entered into a deal to buy wind power from NextEra Energy Inc for the next 20 years to power its data centers. The deal comes less than three months after the giant Silicon Valley Internet search company invested US$38.8 million (S$53.5 million) in two wind farms in North Dakota, developed by NextEra Energy Resources, that generate enough energy to power more than 55,000 homes.
