For as little as $5 each month, KU and LG&E now offer you the opportunity to offset the carbon impact of your electricity usage.

For each $5 purchase of LG&E or KU Green Energy, we ensure that 300 kWh of pure renewable energy is delivered onto the Kentucky transmission grid from new renewable energy sources, such as the Mother Ann Lee hydroelectric plant on the Kentucky River, and from a growing number of other renewable energy sources, such as biomass and landfill energy in Kentucky and surrounding states.

Green Energy enrollments are needed to fund the growth of renewable energy. Join today, and help us make the future greener for the next generation.
