The U.S. Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) has recognized Puget Sound Energy customers’ commitment to clean energy by naming the utility’s Green Power Program as one of the “Top 10” out of 850 green-power programs in the country in 2010. PSE customers have earned the honor from the NREL for nine years in a row.

PSE’s voluntary Green Power Program gives PSE electric customers a way to guarantee that some or all of the energy they use is matched in the electric grid with electricity from wind, solar, biomass and other renewable energy sources in the Pacific Northwest. None of the renewable energy in PSE’s Green Power Program is generated by PSE; it all comes from other Northwest producers of renewable power.
