The natural beauty of the Pacific Northwest is one of the reasons we choose to live here. And we want to make sure we preserve this beauty for generations to come.

Now there’s an easy way to help the environment by supporting the development of electricity from "natural," non-polluting resources, such as the wind and sun. Clark Public Utilities has teamed with the Bonneville Environmental Foundation to offer Green Lights, a program that will generate more wind, solar, geothermal and other forms of pollution-free power in our region to displace more environmentally harmful power sources.

The Bonneville Environmental Foundation has helped to develop and market power from renewable energy projects in Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Montana and Wyoming. BEF invests your Green Lights dollars in the next generation of new renewable energy projects. A portion of Green Lights purchases are devoted to projects right here in Clark County, including solar demonstration sites that can be viewed at the link below.

Look at solar projects in Clark County and see their real-time generation data.

Right now this "green" or "renewable" power costs a little more than electricity produced from natural gas and other fossil fuels. But as more people choose the benefits of non-polluting power and as technology improves, the cost will come down. So, for a small monthly fee right now, you can give the "green light" to environmentally friendly power in the Northwest.
