Reduce your carbon footprint with RECs.

No solar panels required.

There is no way to distinguish what part of the electricity at your location came from what energy source in our diverse fuel portfolio. The only way we have of tracking our renewable energy once it connects to the grid is through Renewable Energy Credits (RECs).

1. We source energy + RECs

A Renewable Energy Credit (REC) is generated for every 1MWh of energy produced from renewable energy sources.

2. You purchase the RECs

Every month you'll receive a certificate for the value of RECs purchased through one of our solar programs.

3. You claim the renewable energy

We retire the RECs on your behalf, and you claim the energy credits to help meet your sustainability goals.
