We all have a responsibility to do our bit for the environment and reduce greenhouse gas emissions and our carbon footprint. One of the simplest ways to do this is to switch to our Clean Energy product.
Clean Energy is drawn from three renewable energy sources - solar power, wind, hydro and biomass. When you subscribe to Clean Energy you ensure that we purchase energy from these renewable sources instead of energy generated from fossil fuels.
Clean Energy is fully accredited by GreenPower, the government program that sets accreditation and reporting standards for renewable energy products in Australia.
Over 60,000* Ergon Energy customers have already subscribed to Clean Energy.
