Here’s why you should choose clean energy.

Solar and wind power make a difference.

Our modern world is fueled by electricity. It helps heat and cool our homes, charge our devices and power our lives. Traditionally, we created electricity using nonrenewable fuel sources, like coal and natural gas. As alternative generation technology became more widely available, more electricity companies have harnessed renewable energy from our natural world.

How does renewable energy work with the electricity grid?

The grid receives electricity from a variety of different generation sources, like coal, natural gas and renewables (wind and solar). As demand for renewable energy grows, more clean energy goes onto the grid and decreases the overall need for traditional (and pollutant-heavy) means of energy production. As a Green Mountain Energy customer, you support clean energy being added to the grid.
