About NC GreenPower > Program Overview
NC GreenPower is an independent,
nonprofit organization established to improve North Carolina’s
environment through voluntary contributions toward renewable energy.
A landmark initiative approved by the N.C. Utilities Commission,
NC GreenPower is the first statewide green energy program in the
nation supported by all the state’s utilities and administered
by Advanced Energy,
an independent nonprofit corporation located in Raleigh, N.C.
The goal of NC GreenPower
is to supplement the state’s existing power supply with more
green energy – electricity generated from renewable resources
like the sun, wind and organic matter. The program accepts financial
contributions from North Carolina citizens and businesses to help
offset the cost to produce green energy.
A typical contribution of just $4 per month adds one block of 100
kilowatt-hours of green energy to North Carolina’s power supply.
Large-volume users – usually from the corporate sector –
may contribute towards 100 or more blocks at a rate of $2.50 per
block with a different energy mix. Together, we will make a positive
impact on the environment.
This overview will provide you with more information about the
program, its benefits and how to make the most of NC GreenPower.
