Find out how electricity generated from renewable sources is shaping a cleaner energy future.

Renewable Energy

It's all in the name. Renewable energy is any form of energy generated from sources that are easily replenishable. 

The sun, the wind, the tides of the ocean, waves on the river and even geothermal heat from the Earth - they're all readily available sources of renewable energy.

These renewable sources are growing in importance during the energy transition. And they're providing us with large chunks of the electricity we all use. For instance, in 2020, ^<a style="color:#4096b7" href="https://www.iea.org/reports/global-energy-review-2021/renewables" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">renewable sources produced 29% of all the electricity generated around the world</a>^.

What is Renewable Energy?

^<a href ="https://www.nrdc.org/stories/renewable-energy-clean-facts" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Renewable energy</a>^ comes from natural sources or processes that are constantly replenished. For example, sunlight or wind keep shining and blowing, even if their availability depends on time and weather.

What makes it unique?

There are many types of renewable energy, but the main three used to ^<a style="color:#4096b7" href="https://comptroller.texas.gov/economy/fiscal-notes/2020/august/ercot.php" rel="nofollow" target="_blanl">generate electricity across Texas are solar, wind, and hydro</a>^. They all offer long-term, lower-carbon alternatives to electricity generated from fossil fuel sources. A growing mix of solar farms, wind farms and hydroelectric plants helps to create a cleaner energy future through renewable generation.

__Solar__: We may complain about the heat from time to time, but the power of the sun sure comes in handy when harnessed by the photovoltaic cells on solar panels to generate electricity.

__Wind__: Most of us have spotted a wind turbine (or a few) on our travels. The blades are not only mesmerizing but they also connect to a generator that converts their energy into electricity.

__Hydro__: From water wheels to the Canyon Dam, people have tapped into the incredible natural power of flowing water for centuries - using it to turn turbines that, these days, are used to generate electricity. 


Type of renewable energy

Because there's no way for you to know if electricity from the grid is generated by renewable or non-renewable sources, it's important to show that our electricity plans are backed by ^<a style="color:#4096b7" href="https://www.epa.gov/green-power-markets/renewable-energy-certificates-recs" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">Renewable Energy Certificates</a>^.

Renewable Energy Certificates are issued when one megawatt-hour (MWh) of electricity is generated and delivered to the grid from a renewable energy resource.

So, you can be sure that you're supporting generation from renewable sources.
