Green Power
KUB, the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) , and the environmental community are working together to provide KUB's customers the option of utilizing Green Power. Green Power is electric power drawn from renewable resources that have a minimal impact on the environment. The use of Green Power can help ease the dependency of the Tennessee Valley upon non-renewable resources such as coal and other fossil fuels. By using fewer fossil fuels to generate energy, we can help maintain the clean air and water we all enjoy for generations to come. It's easy for residential and business customers to signup for Green Power and have it appear on your monthly statement.
TVA plans to use solar energy, wind, and methane gas to generate power for its Green Power Switch® program.
KUB and 114 other power distributors are now participating in TVA's Green Power Switch program.
Generation Partners
Homes and businesses that participate in Green Power Switch ® are already doing something good for the environment. Now, TVA and participating power distributors offer consumers even greater opportunity to support the growth of Green Power in the Tennessee Valley. It’s called Green Power Switch (GPS) Generation Partners ®.
