Viridian has chosen as part of it's company mission to exceed the green energy requirements in New Jersey. New Jersey mandates every licensed electricity supplier to obtain 8.297% of their electricity load from renewable sources. The electricity you get through Viridian's Everyday Green plan is 20% green, while most of it's competitors merely meet the 8.297% benchmark. Simply by
Switching to Viridian Energy, a residential customer using 1,000 kilowatt hours per month will reduce their carbon emissions by more than 1,075 pounds which is the equivalent of planting 55 trees or 1,025 miles not driven. The choice is clear.
For those wanting to do more, Viridian offers New Jersey customers the opportunity to go 100% green through our Pure Green rate plan.
