The GreenUp Program is offered through the electric utility, National Grid. GreenUp allows residential consumers to choose to have all or a portion of the electricity they use generated from clean, renewable sources, such as wind, solar, biomass, and small hydropower facilities, while keeping National Grid as the electric supplier. This provides convenient billing through your existing National Grid account statement.
Below is more information on the clean energy options available, and how to contact each provider for more information.
