Green Energy is a Natural Choice

Now it's easier than ever to support environmentally friendly energy generation from sources like the sun, wind, water, and biomass. Just sign up for Georgia Power's Green Energy® program and help bring more renewable power to Georgia.

Make a difference with Green Energy
By participating in Georgia Power's Green Energy program, you continue to get the reliable energy you need while doing something positive about the environment. Your Green Energy choice will:

• Potentially reduce the environmental impact of energy production
• Conserve our natural resources
• Support domestic energy self-reliance

Green Energy is regulated by the Georgia Public Service Commission and is Green-e Energy certified. Green-e Energy provides independent, third-party certification to ensure certified renewable energy meets strict environmental and consumer protection standards. More than 175 companies throughout the United States participate in the certification program.

How it works

• Green Energy is available to residential customers in 100-kilowatt-hour blocks for a 12-month period (about 10 percent of an average monthly residential electricity bill).
• Each block adds $4.50 (plus tax) to your monthly electricity bill.
• Commercial and industrial customers can also participate with a minimum block purchase based on the amount of energy used as defined in the Green Energy Tariff.

Each block purchased brings more Green Energy into our state. As demand for renewable energy increases, the higher expense of green energy generation may be offset by improved technology and production efficiency. Customers who participate in the program cannot be guaranteed that they will receive the actual kilowatts produced by a green energy generation method, but you can rest assured the green energy you are supporting is being produced and delivered to Georgia Power customers.
