How do I make a difference with LG&E Green Energy<br />
Renewable energy costs more to develop than coal-fired energy. To help develop new<br />
renewable energy, LG&E Green Energy dollars “pay the difference” to make the difference.<br />
For every $5 of LG&E Green Energy you add to your bill, you are assured that 300 kWh of<br />
electricity are being delivered to the Kentucky regional energy grid by a pure renewable<br />
energy source (hydro, landfill or wind energy built since 1997). Renewable Energy<br />
Certificates are purchased from regional renewable energy operators and are third-party<br />
certified by Green-e Energy.®<br />
How much of a difference can I make<br />
Average LG&E homes use 900 kWh of electricity per month. It costs $15 per month<br />
to offset this carbon impact with Green Energy.<br />
