You can support renewable energy through the electricity you choose to buy – even if you can’t get solar on your roof. There are several different ways to choose renewables when you buy electricity.

GreenPower

GreenPower is a national government program that enables households and businesses to choose renewable energy through their electricity plan. When you choose to buy GreenPower, your electricity retailer purchases an equivalent amount of electricity from accredited renewable sources, such as large scale wind and solar.

Most electricity retailers offer GreenPower and it typically comes at an additional cost. This is because your electricity provider pays the wholesale electricity price for the renewable electricity and a certified GreenPower premium. By purchasing 100% GreenPower, you will be covering all of your household’s emissions from electricity.

Choosing GreenPower is a simple, practical step we can all take to reduce our carbon emissions. In this online 'lunchtime chat', you'll learn how to compare 100% GreenPower energy plans online and switch. Presented and sponsored by the experts from the GreenPower team in NSW.
