NOTE: The 50% Renewable Fixed Rate Option includes 50% electricity supply matched by Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) provided by New York State renewable power plants (hydropower, wind, solar). The remaining 50% is matched by RECs sourced from other U.S. renewable electricity sources, but are not tracked or verified by the NYS Department of Public Service. The 50% Renewable Option is not counted as 100% renewable by New York State. Standard supply is a mixture of fossil fuels, nuclear, and some renewable energy.
