Certified Green Power Suppliers

The Public Renewables Partnership strongly endorses certified renewable electricity products that meet environmental and consumer protection standards established by industry and other stakeholders. It's important that all consumer-owned utilities voluntarily abide by best practices and comply with some set of standards that aim to protect the consumer through ensuring consistency in environmental marketing claims.
