You have a number of options to supply your home with clean electricity. Installing solar electricity (PV) is a great way to transition a portion of your home’s electricity to clean sources. If you are not ready or able to invest in a solar PV system, buying clean electricity or participating in community solar are two other ways to begin the transition to clean energy.
In addition to your heating, cooling, hot water, and electric system, appliances in your home also contribute to your greenhouse gas emissions.
