About NC GreenPower > Board

In 2001, a planning committee representing consumers, electric utilities, the environmental community, technology suppliers, the State Energy Office, and Advanced Energy began working together to bring green energy to North Carolina. The result was the creation of NC GreenPower, a non-profit corporation whose mission is to improve the quality of the environment by encouraging the development of renewable energy resources through consumers' voluntary contributions toward green power purchases by electric utilities in North Carolina. Today the NC GreenPower Board of Directors consists of 22 members representing the diverse group of stakeholders who continue to be instrumental in the evolution of the program. The Board is selected by the North Carolina Utilities Commission. Nominations are sought annually for open seats.
