The
Switch Is On
TVA
and local public power companies, working with input from the environmental
community, have created a program called Green Power Switch® to
produce electricity from cleaner, greener sources and add it to the Tennessee
Valleys power mix. Resources like wind, solar power, and methane
gas produce energy for today and renew themselves for tomorrow—like
a growing plant.
Now you can help add renewable energy to the Valley’s
power sources and improve regional air and water quality. Are you ready
to make the switch? Learn
more here.
Green Power Switch is a cooperative effort between
TVA and distributors of TVA power. Here is a list of the distributors
that provide Green Power to their customers.

Corporate visitors at the TVA wind park, a dentist who sets an example for other small businesses, an Earth Day calendar, and more are featured in the Spring issue.
|
GPS Generation Partners is a program that provides
support and incentives for small-scale green power generation
by homeowners and small businesses.

Find out about the environmental benefits of
Green Power Switch. Similar to a food nutrition
