What is Green Electricity and How is It Produced?

Green electricity, or eco-friendly electrical energy, is generated from renewable energy sources. These resources are provided by nature, are available in unlimited quantities, or replenish themselves faster than they are consumed.

Main Sources of Renewable Energy:

  • Wind and solar energy
  • Hydro and ocean wave energy
  • Geothermal energy (heat from the earth or water)
  • Biomass, biogas, and sewage treatment gases
  • Waste recycling

To ensure a continuous and stable flow of green energy, Enefit both generates green energy itself and purchases it from other reliable electricity producers across Europe.

Why Choose Green Electricity for Your Home?

Switching to green electricity is one of the simplest and most effective ways to reduce your home's ecological footprint.

By signing a contract with Enefit and choosing green electricity, you:

  • Reduce environmental impact - your home directly helps lower CO₂ emissions.
  • Support local producers - your spent funds go directly to wind, solar, hydro, and other renewable energy producers, driving the development of new green projects in the Baltics and Europe.
  • Ensure a sustainable future - you actively participate in promoting energy independence and the green transition.
