100% green & cheap

I tried uswitch and energyhelpline. The latter led me to Southern Electric RSPB but do not offer a direct transfer, so I rang them up.

Turns out they can save me £120 on dual fuel (from npower juice standard dual fuel, pay be monthly direct debit) and their Power 2 option is 100% green on the electric - 80% Hydro power, 5% wind, 5% sewage, landfill and other alternatives. Also, they plant 6 trees per year per person to cancel out your carbon output from using gas.

I'm happy with this. Have visited Hydro water sites in Scotland and wish that more of our energy was generated this way - afterall, I believe there is on average 3 metres of rainfall every year (I think) in Scotland.

I'll sleep better knowing I'm saving more and above that showing my support for 100% green energy - or getting there!
