Over the last 20+ years, we’ve been dedicated in our mission: to inspire hope and motivate action through the use of clean energy. As a carbon-neutral company, we place sustainability at the heart of everything we do.

Thanks to our customers, we help create positive change for the planet by reducing carbon impact every day. Since 2002, we’ve tracked the carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions avoided by the residential and commercial customers who buy our products or sign up for our plans.

Traditional electricity generation creates greenhouse gases and contributes to air pollution. Clean energy sources like wind and solar power do not create CO₂ emissions. Also, carbon offsets neutralize the effects of carbon-intensive activities like travel or daily commutes. To calculate our impact numbers, we only count the avoided CO₂ emissions attributable to “new” renewable energy facilities.*

We open our books each year to a third-party auditor. These audits ensure that 100% of the clean electricity our customers purchase is backed by renewable energy projects. You can learn more about our product standards or review our past results in our sustainability reports.

To ensure we’re providing comprehensive, sustainable solutions, we also offer select Green-e^® Energy certified products. These include our Go Local Solar plan for Texas residential customers and our Green Mountain Energy Certified Electricity – TRE product for commercial businesses.
