Why Green
Power: |
|
|
| |
Green power is
electricity that
is generated
from renewable
resources such
as solar, wind,
biomass, and
hydro
facilities.
Conventional
electricity
generation,
based on the
combustion of
fossil fuels,
contributes to
greenhouse gas
emissions and
have an adverse
impact on the
environment. The
availability of
green power
enables
electricity
customers to
accelerate
installation of
renewable energy
technologies. As
more green power
sources are
developed, the
overall
environmental
impacts
associated with
electricity
generation will
be significantly
reduced. Green
Power sources
are often low
polluting and
environmentally
sound. They are
also considered
clean
technologies.
Most green power
sources have no
fuel costs and
hence green
power can help
protect your
power portfolio
from volatile
prices of
fossil-fuel-generated
electricity.
Many
organizations
are committing
themselves to
establishing
environmental
friendly
processes to
make their
operations and
practices
sustainable.
Demonstrating
environmental
concern through
green power
helps increase
an
organization's
customer and
investor
loyalty.
Employees prefer
to work for
companies that
give back to
their
communities and
to the
environment.
On-site
renewable
generation can
be a more
reliable source
of power than
power
distributed
through the
electric grid. |

Green Power
Projects Sited
close to
sub-systems.
Offer advantages
that large
scale, capital
intensive,
central station
power plants
cannot provide.
By sitting
smaller, move
fuel flexible
systems, green
power offers
distributed
generation which
avoids
transmission and
distributed
losses. |
