Verde Energy is an energy supplier that provides completely renewable energy at fixed rates. These fixed rates make it simple for people to make their homes greener and avoid nonrenewable sources of power. Currently, Verde Energy is available to customers in New York, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Illinois. Morethan 250,000 business and residential customers have made the switch to Verde Energy over time and now enjoy renewable energy sourced from hydro, solar, and wind power. These sources of clean power do not produce the air and water pollution generated by fossil fuels. These pollutants have been linked to heart, lung, and neurological diseases, as well as cancer. Supporting renewable energy also bolsters the energy independence of the United States.Verde Energy actively purchases RECs, or Renewable Energy Certificates, to support green energy generation. These RECs provide incremental funding on top of payment for power added to the grid. With RECs, companies can fund green energy development and expand their operations to provide even more renewable power. Getting started with Verde Energy is easy. People who live within the company’s service areas can take advantage of renewable power directly through their current utility company. Verde Energy customers continue to receive energy bills from their utility company, but the power supplied to their home or business comes from Verde Energy. The utility company also continues to service the customer’s meter and handle any repairs.Making the switch is simple. There is no interruption of service. To sign up, people can visit VerdeEnergy.com and enter some basic information from their monthly utility bill. Then, as soon as the utility company accepts the enrollment, service from Verde Energy begins.Becoming a customer comes with many benefits, including access to free online tools for reducing your power consumption and tips on energy efficiency. Verde Energy also offers rebates and rewards programs for referring a friend to renewable power.
