Choosing A Green Electricity Supplier

3 January 2009 2 Comments

Choosing A Green Electricity SupplierHave you considered switching to green power?

Are you overwhelmed by the choices?

There are dozens of green energy suppliers, offering all sorts of plans and options. Some suppliers are ‘greener’ than others, and prices vary widely, so how do you choose who to go with?

Enter the EasySwitch web site.

You simply enter your postcode, and they show you all the renewable electricity suppliers and plans that are available to you. The suppliers they compare plans from include ActewAGL, AGL, Australian Power & Gas, Click Energy, Country Energy, Energy Australia, Integral Energy, Jackgreen, Momentum, Origin Energy, Queensland Electricity, Simply Energy, TRUenergy and Victoria Electricity.

The list of available plans you’ll get shows details such as contract length, tons of CO2 saved, additional cost (or savings), and some information about where each plan sources its green electricity. It also shows the GreenElectricityWatch (GEW) rating for each plan, which is an independent comparison of how much difference each plan really makes to the environment.

Once you find a plan you like, you can click through to initiate the switch.

Give it a try, and let me know what you think!
