Renewable energy is clean, thus creating a healthier, safer environment because it produces fewer pollutants than power plants using fossil fuels.
Renewable energy is just that renewable.
It never runs out and is replaced by natural ecological cycles blowing wind, rushing river water or blazing sunshine, natural resources that are plentiful in Texas. Green power , as defined by SB 7, includes electricity generated from Texas natural gas, a fossil fuel which generates some pollution, but is relatively clean-burning compared to other fossil fuels. Not all Texas electric providers have renewable energy as part of their energy sources. Retail electric providers may offer customers electricity produced from renewable resources, but in many cases, renewable energy will cost more that traditionally generated electricity. However, as renewable energy becomes more widely used, technical innovations should reduce costs.
