Help the Environment – Help the Economy – Earn cash back
When you choose the Energy Plus Green Option, you'll know that you are supporting 100% wind generated power each and every month. The wind power you're supporting is produced in the U.S., and your purchase goes back to the facilities that generated this wind power. Your purchase will be in the form of Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs), which fully offset the negative environmental impacts of your electricity usage. Click here for more information about RECs, or visit www.green-e.org.

100% Pure Wind – Domestically Produced with Zero Emissions
The Energy Plus Green Option features Green-e Energy certified RECs from 100% pure wind power - one of the cleanest forms of energy available - which is domestically produced and void of greenhouse gas emissions in its production. For a penny more per kilowatt hour, you'll directly reduce our nation's requirement for electricity generated from the combustion of fossil fuels.

No service changes—service remains with your local utility
The best part is that nothing about your electrical service will change! Your local utility will continue to deliver your electricity, read your meter, handle service emergencies, and mail your statement. You'll be supporting green energy and earning cash back while still enjoying the safety and reliability of your current service.

*Your purchase of Green-e Energy certified renewable energy certificates (RECs) is supporting electricity production in the United States. For every unit of renewable electricity generated, an equivalent amount of RECs is produced. The purchase of RECs helps offset conventional electricity generation in the region where the renewable electricity generator is located. The purchase also helps build a market for renewable electricity and may have other local and global environmental benefits such as reducing global climate change and regional air pollution.

**Members will receive a Cash Back rebate check after every 12 billing cycles of service for active accounts. Active accounts are defined as those (i) that are billing more than $0 and (ii) for which Energy Plus has not received a request on behalf of the customer to discontinue (drop) their service. The Cash Back rebate will be 3% of the annual electricity supply charges per business account and 2% per residential account. A $50 Activation Bonus check for business accounts or a $25 Activation Bonus check for residential accounts will be mailed at the close of your 2nd billing cycle with Energy Plus.

***The Energy Plus supply rate per kWh is variable and therefore subject to change during each billing cycle. Current and historical rates should not be taken as a guarantee of future rates and Energy Plus makes no warranty, express or implied, regarding specific savings.

If you are currently on a Budget Billing plan, your monthly budget billing amount may be adjusted as a result of enrollment with Energy Plus. In addition, your utility may perform a true-up upon enrollment with Energy Plus. Depending on various factors, including season, this true-up could result in a charge, or a credit.

Energy Plus reserves the right to modify or discontinue the program. This offer cannot be combined with other offers. Offer valid for all service areas in New York, excluding LIPA. Offer not valid for government entities.

About Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs)

When a renewable energy facility operates, it creates electricity that is delivered into a vast network of transmission wires, often referred to as "the grid." The grid is segmented into regional power pools; in many cases these pools are not interconnected. To help facilitate the sale of renewable electricity nationally, a system was established that separates renewable electricity generation into two parts: the electricity or electrical energy produced by a renewable generator and the renewable "attributes" of that generation. The renewable attributes or "green" attributes are sold separately as renewable energy certificates (RECs). Only one certificate may be issued for each unit of renewable electricity produced. The electricity that was split from the REC is no longer considered "renewable" and cannot be counted as renewable or zero-emissions by whoever buys it.

The Energy Plus green option product is comprised of RECs. With the purchase of RECs, you are buying the renewable attributes (i.e., environmental benefits) of a specific amount and type of renewable energy generation. Your purchase of renewable certificates helps offset conventional electricity generation in the region where the renewable generator is located. Your purchase also helps build a market for renewable electricity and may have other local and global environmental benefits such as reduced global climate change and regional air pollution.

The renewable certificates in the Energy Plus green option product are verified and certified by Green-e Energy. Each supplier of renewable certificates is required to disclose the quantity, type and geographic source of each certificate. Please see the Product Content Label for this information. Green-e Energy also verifies that the renewable certificates are not sold more than once or claimed by more than one party. For information on Green-e Energy please visit its website, www.green-e.org, or call them toll-free, 1-888-63-GREEN.
