Add Gap Inc. to the roster of companies pledging to use 100% renewable energy.

The apparel retailer joins Apple Inc., Bank of America Corp., Anheuser-Busch InBev and dozens of others that have vowed to rely entirely on clean power -- or are already doing it -- as wind and solar have become some of the cheapest sources of energy. As part of its effort to hit 100% by 2030, Gap agreed to buy power from a wind farm that Enel SpA plans to build in North Dakota, the clothing company said in a statement Friday.
