Since the deregulation of the energy industry, and the recent introduction of competition into the domestic energy market, consumers are able to choose their electricity supplier. Your choice Traditionally, electricity has been generated by the burning of fossil fuels - oil, gas and coal. Latterly, the nuclear energy industry has become a major source of electricity. Now, due to technological advances in the industry, that choice is made broader. We can also produce our electricity from renewable sources.
Renewable energy is produced from harnessing the power from wind or water or the sun's rays.
Using these sources of energy does not deplete the earth's resources, nor pollute the environment. Renewable energy is the energy of the future. But you may be pleased to hear that you can choose to be supplied with this energy right now. Well, now you do have the choice. It's your call.
