NOPEC Green Community Choice Program

The Green Community Choice Program is an excellent option for communities that want to support renewable energy initiatives to achieve their sustainability goals. It provides communities with a default electric aggregation program backed by Green-e® certified Renewable Energy Credits (RECs) for 100% of the electricity used by enrolled customers, while still providing residents and small businesses with the flexibility to select from any of NOPEC’s other rate options.

Green Community Choice FAQs

What are RECs?

Renewable Energy Credits (RECs) represent the environmental attributes associated with 1 megawatt-hour of electricity generated by a renewable energy source, such as wind or solar energy. RECs provide a convenient and effective way to support renewable energy, offset carbon and greenhouse gas emissions and encourage the development of renewable energy resources. 

How much will the 100% Renewable Standard Program Price cost?
