Banking giant Wells Fargo announced yesterday that it has bought renewable-energy certificates to offset 40 percent of its current electricity usage over the next three years. Amounting to 550 million kilowatt hours of wind power a year, it is the largest-ever corporate purchase of renewable energy in the U.S., beating out previous record-holder Whole Foods Market's purchase of 458 million kilowatt-hours earlier this year. The country's fifth-largest bank estimates that it will be preventing 380,000 tons of carbon dioxide emissions a year. "The more you can help produce renewable energy sources, the less dependent we will be on oil and natural gas, which could in turn lower energy prices," says a Wells Fargo corporate properties director. And the good PR ain't too shabby either.

Wells Fargo Bank felt that distributed object-oriented middleware would allow them to have a customer information system that would allow them to "see" a customer's entire bank relationship, with the existing systems they had. With The Cushing Group and Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC)/COMPAQ, the bank created its Customer Relationship System (CRS) in three months. The rollout to service customers was completed in another three weeks. Wells Fargo call center representatives were able to retrieve a "customer view" using the customer's TIN (social security number or employer tax number).
