OVERLAND PARK, Kan. — Johnson County Community College (赌钱app可以微信提现) has finalized a 10-year agreement with Kansas City Power & Light (KCP&L) that will allow the College to offset its current energy production purchases with higher levels of wind energy use. The program, titled Renewables Direct, is designed to provide large customers like 赌钱app可以微信提现 with the abundant, affordable renewable energy of Kansas and Missouri. As a Renewables Direct customer, 赌钱app可以微信提现 may save between $30,000 and $40,000 each year, while becoming a nearly 100 percent renewable-energy institution.
