    • Boosting energy diversity and sustainability
    • Buying new wind and small hydro from New York resource generators
    • Supporting New York and local economies
    • Developing New York’s renewable energy market

Here’s how it works:

Does my purchase mean I’m using renewable energy to power my home or business?

Not directly. Your purchase guarantees that clean, renewable energy is being placed on the electric grid, raising the percentage of renewable energy used overall.
