What is GreenPower?
GreenPower is renewable energy sourced from the sun, the wind, water and waste that can be purchased by Simply Energy on your behalf. Electricity is generated at a range of sites across Australia and supplied to a central power grid. Your homes and businesses are connected to this grid to access electricity. Traditionally, electricity on the national grid came from generators who burn coal. Only a small amount currently comes from renewable sources. Green energy customers of Simply Energy receive accredited GreenPower. We buy electricity generated from accredited renewable energy generators on your behalf. This renewable energy gets transmitted to the national electricity grid. GreenPower is independently audited and verified by the National GreenPower Accreditation Program. Retailers can only use the GreenPower logos if they meet the strict rules of the program.
