Buy Green Energy

Buy Green Power

Did you know you can choose what kind of electricity you buy from your electric company? Buying clean and renewable or "green" energy is the single most powerful action a family or business can take to fight pollution and climate disruption. Find out how!

CLEAN is a collaborative movement of organizations and individuals organizing around a specific "CALL TO ACTION."

The "call" is to implement new energy policies based on decentralized control of energy, whereby energy is generated by regionally appropriate, reliable, and renewable resources, such as wind, solar, and geothermal.

Wednesday night, September 19th, at the Orleans SelectBoard meeting, members of the Orleans community and representatives from the Committee to Save Orleans Wind filled the room. Eight testimonies were heard clearly demonstrating the Orleans residents’ desire to review the surprise vote made on September 12th. The vote on September 12th shocked Orleans when the Board of Water Commissioners declined two 1.56MW turbines slated for the Orleans watershed.
While commending the Board of Water Commissioners for the massive effort they have made to date on this project, the Orleans SelectBoard responded to the requests of the Orleans citizens by voting that the Board of Water Commissioners reopen the review process. The SelectBoard will look to create a roundtable discovery process at which all parties will sit. At this roundtable opportunity, all current impasses to the Orleans Wind Turbine project will hope to be aired and, if possible, resolved.
