Green For You
Welcome
to Green For You-
Green Power Choices. There's good news for consumers and businesses
in the Tallahassee, Florida, area: Now you have more green energy choices. The
Green For You renewable energy program lets you choose energy
from Earth-friendly sources and support development
of solar energy in your city, state and region.
Sterling Planet has partnered with the City to provide you the Green For You program. We offer you energy from the sun, wind, water and naturally occurring bio-energy. All these sources are renewable. They are easily, rapidly replenished, unlike fossil fuels like coal that take thousands of years to develop. Today, renewable resources make up only about 2.5% of Florida's generation mix. You can help change that.

What is Renewable (Green) Energy? Green energy has zero or little environmental impact. It comes from renewable sources that are essentially unlimited, including the sun, the wind, the heat of the earth, or easily replaceable fuels such as plants. Renewable, or green, energy resources are planet-friendly substitutes for fossil fuels (coal, oil, and gas) or nuclear power.
What are "Green Tags"? Green For You is a very effective way to encourage green energy production because all our transactions are made using a tradable certificate called a "green tag". To learn more about how green tags work to produce more green energy locally and nationally, read this from FMEA's Relay Magazine, "Unraveling the Mystery of Green Tags". (PDF)
Why Choose Green Energy? Choosing green energy means you're doing something positive about the air we breathe, the environment we live in, and the condition of the planet we leave to future generations. Renewable energy sources like solar and organic materials (plants) known as biomass, along with others such as wind and geothermal, can benefit our national environment, economy, and energy security in these ways:
- Causes zero or little pollution
- Conserves natural resources
- Reduces the amount of waste sent to landfills
- Uses marginal land for energy crops
- Enhances wildlife and fish habitats
- Creates jobs and expands the tax base
- Decreases reliance on foreign oil
