Where the energy comes from

Where the energy comes from

Green Energy Consumers only sources from New England renewable energy generators.

When you make the switch to green electricity through Green Energy Consumers' Green Powered or through a Community Choice Electricity program that works with us, you are supporting New England renewable energy projects (Massachusetts Class 1 or Rhode Island "new"). This approach ensures that your purchase is shifting our local power grid to clean sources, pushing off the need for fossil fuels.

Green Powered & Green Municipal Aggregation support these projects:
