GreenPower For Your Home

So you've heard about GreenPower but you're not sure exactly what it is or how you 'switch it on'?

BuildingWA.com.au has compiled a list of 'frequently asked questions' to help you reduce the carbon footprint of your house.

What is Green Power?

GreenPower is energy that is generated from renewable sources that cannot be depleted or can be replaced such as solar, wind, water and waste. Generating renewable energy produces no greenhouse gas and therefore has minimal impact on the environment.

Energy companies purchase electricity generated from accredited GreenPower sources and sell it to consumers to power their homes or businesses.

How much does it cost?

Converting 100% of your homes electricity consumption with GreenPower may be more than your budget allows.

However, you can choose to convert from as little as 10% of your energy bill into GreenPower, allowing you to do your part for our environment without breaking the bank. Remember, every little bit counts!

What Natural Power is available in Western Australia?

As the energy retailer for the Perth metropolitan area in Western Australia, Synergy offers 'NaturalPower'.

NaturalPower is accredited by the National GreenPower Accreditation Program and is sourced only from accredited GreenPower generated in WA.

How can I 'switch on' to Natural Power?
