ConEdison Solutions
ConEdison Solutions sells and provides energy to large and small businesses in the Northeastern United States and the Mid-Atlantic Region. One of the ways this company is providing these businesses with energy is through “Green-e” certified Wind Power. Wind Power is a “form of clean, renewable energy generated from wind turbines that capture and convert wind into electricity.”
The Power of Green
ConEdison actively promotes the purchase and use of Energy Star appliances. Such appliances can be installed within a home to “keep costs down, produce less air pollutants, preserve natural resources and promote the use of domestic energy sources.” They are offering incentives to customers and businesses to use these products and become more energy efficient, like rebates and free energy saving surveys.
