not all it's cracked up to be

Green Mountain, Once was from the Green Mountains of Vermont but is now located in Texas. In NY State it was giving wind power to customers but then reduced the amount of wind power it gave to its customers (down to 10%) and raised its prices. While it sells this little bit of wind power in NY, it stopped building wind farms in NY State. If you are in NY, the best wind power company is Community Energy (many environmental groups use Community Energy). If you are in another state, look carefully for the best providors and consult with local environemntal organizations before making your choice. There are likely to be other wind power companies that give more wind power than this company.

Green Mountain Energy Company

I have been a Green Mountain Energy customer for 6 months now and love it!

I really feel good about doing my part to help the environment and this is an easy way to do it. We receive the Cleaner Times, a bimonthly newsletter, which contains our environmental impact since becoming customers. Basically it is a chart that shows the number of pounds of CO2 avoided, trees planted and miles not driven simply by us choosing cleaner energy.

Their website is great too. Lots of good content in an easy to use format. Check it out: www.greenmountainenergy.com.

I have also had great customer service. The company cares about it's customers and it's cause. This kind of commitment from an energy provider is unheard of. They are strictly a green energy company, which is impressive. How many energy companies can say that? Plus, they have been doing it for over 10 years!

Renewable Energy for Everyone

Green Mountain is a great energy company. They allow you to purchase renewable energy that was produced in your area, not somewhere else in the country. This way you are offsetting carbon emissions in your local area.
