Where it gets tricky, is then Nashville power then has to purchase the amount of electricity that Gore used from green sources, and put that in the power pool.
The ONLY way at this point in time for you to use 100% green electricity is to be off the grid and generate your own power through green sources.

Is that true? I don't know I haven't done enough research on it, but a company here in Texas:

is stating all their energy is from green sources. Are they just offsetting? I don't understand how their rates are so competitive if so. Our bill has actually gone down since switching to them.
