New Wind Energy

Catch the Wind program

Support the use of clean, renewable wind-generated electricity by participating in our Catch the Wind program. Buying two blocks (100 kWh) of wind-generated electricity every month for one year reduces carbon dioxide emissions equivalent to:*

  • 1,289 avoided miles driven by an average gasoline-powered passenger vehicle
  • Equivalent to avoiding CO2 emissions from charging 63,146 smartphones 
  • Equivalent to avoiding CO2 emissions from the burning of 574 pounds of coal 

*This is with the assumption the customer is enrolled for 12 months. These calculations are based on the Greenhouse Gas Equivalencies Calculator provided by the Environmental Protection Agency. All estimates are approximate.
