Good Energy
Good Energy supplies 100% renewable energy to its customers. For every unit of electricity that you use, Good Energy will buy one unit of renewable energy and put it into the National Grid.
Eighty percent of Good Energy’s electricity comes from wind farms, and the remainder from small-scale hydroelectric and solar installations. The company has four energy suppliers in the South-West: the hydroelectricity generators at Sowton Mill and Glen Lyn in Devon, and the wind farms at Goonhilly Downs and Delabole in Cornwall – both of which are owned by Good Energy’s parent company, Monkton Energy.
Good Energy also have a Home Generation scheme that pays people for energy they produce at their own homes or businesses (with solar panels or micro-wind turbines for example). Zac Goldsmith, editor of The Ecologist magazine, has called this an initiative that “makes it simple and easy for anyone to take responsibility for their own lifestyle”.
Good Energy is recommended by Friends of the Earth and The Good Shopping Guide.
