When it comes to all the buzzwords that make up your clean screen rating, there are many! Whether it be “renewables,” “carbon neutrality,” “zero emissions,” “carbon offset,” “carbon footprint” or “ecofriendly,” all are holding you to the same common denominator: clean energy.

Your Natural Resource Repository
Did you know there are six different kinds of clean energy available for use today? It’s true! We have:
- Solar
- Wind
- Natural Gas
- Geothermal
- Biomass
For those of you that may not know, biomass is organic waste and plant material that generates electricity when burned. Geothermal, on the other hand, comes from deep wells in the Earth that pull up boiling water and act as a hydrothermal resource.
Fun fact: Hydroelectricity is the largest renewable energy resource in the United States!
And, because geothermal, hydroelectric, wind and solar do not produce fuel costs or require transportation, they provide greater price stability for you!
