Consumers Energy is giving all of their customers the ability to “Go Green” with their new program “Green Giving” which allows low-income customers to save money while also contributing to Consumers Energy green initiatives.
Here’s how it works:
- Consumers Energy builds renewable resources – large scale wind or solar projects.
- The company utilizes sponsored dollars from those wanting to help fund low-income customer subscriptions tied to our projects.
- Consumers Energy, alongside our community-based organization agency partners, enrolls eligible customers to subscribe to renewable resources.
- Those resources then generate clean electricity, which is sold back into the grid.
- Then, the value we receive from renewable energy sales, gets passed along to those customers enrolled in “Green Giving” through a direct line-item credit on their bills of $10-$20/month.
Also, coming up on April 18th is Lineworker Appreciation Day a time to thank the hardworking men and women that keep the power flowing to the people here in Northern Michigan.
