Choose Renewable
Contacts: MARKIE BSCHERER
Choose Renewable is one of the most popular programs offered by member utilities of WPPI Energy.
Choose Renewable customers commit to supporting renewable energy with an increase on their monthly bill by a few dollars. Each renewable energy block equates to 300 kilowatts of renewable energy each at just $2 per month. An average-sized home can offset its energy usage with the purchase of three renewable energy blocks. And, with no equipment to buy or install, there’s no need to worry about payback periods or annual maintenance costs.

The funds invested in Choose Renewable help grow the use and acceptance of renewable energy in local communities, leading to energy independence. Over the 20+ year history of the program participation has helped fund renewable energy projects in the region through renewable energy grants for non-profit organizations, the Solar Buy Back program, and local demonstration projects. Because it is generated in the Midwest, renewable energy can help increase our energy independence. With Choose Renewable, we are making a difference.
