City Light offers customers several options to increase the supply of renewable energy, or "green power." Increased demand for renewable energy resources in the Northwest, including wind and solar, helps preserve a high quality environment and spurs our regional economy.

• Buy green power for a portion of your electricity through City Light's Green Up program.

• Support renewable energy demonstrations, including local solar electricity projects, through City Light's Green Power program.

• Generate your own power with Solar Energy.

Did you know?
Seattle's long tradition of clean, renewable energy began in 1905 with the Cedar Falls hydroelectric plant. Later, City Light developed the Skagit and Boundary hydroelectric facilities. The Skagit facilities were recently recognized to meet strict "low-impact hydro" certification requirements. In 2002 City Light contracted for one of the largest wind power purchases in the country, 175 megawatts from the Stateline project in eastern Washington and Oregon.

Customer participation in green power programs adds to this legacy by acquiring additional supplies and accelerating the market for new renewable energy. Join the thousands of customers who already support Green Power - clean energy for a new century with no greenhouse gas emissions!
