Village Green Energy RECs Renewable Energy Certificates Carbon Offsets

Why We're Different

Unlike many of our competitors, Village Green focuses on driving the transition to renewable energy instead of planting trees, burning animal waste, or forcing algae blooms to offset carbon. Carbon offsets address a symptom of the problem, where renewable energy is one of the most important parts of the solution.

But the difference goes beyond philosophy.

Methodology

We are the first and only green power supplier that exclusively sources Renewable Energy Certificates from compliance markets, where we compete with electric utilities for RECs.
Our methodology ensures that our customers are forcing more renewable energy into the power lines.

This is called "additionality" and it is the key factor in knowing that you're making a difference. For an extended explanation of our methodology, please click here.

Transparency

Our customers have access to our books. We issue a bi-annual report to our customers that lists all of the renewable power we have contracted by customer number. This way, any customer can check up on us, and make sure we have been holding up our end of the bargain. The reports can be found on the My Account page.
