The Switch Is On

image of the skyTVA 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 Valley’s 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.
