NorthWestern Energy’s electricity supply mix for our Montana customers includes more than 60% clean energy made up of 44% carbon-free hydro and slightly more than 17% renewables, mostly wind generation.

NorthWestern Energy has announced a new program that allows Montana customers to choose energy from renewable sources.

A release from NorthWestern Energy (NWE) says the new program, called the E+ Green program, gives customers the opportunity to reduce their electricity-based carbon footprint and supports the development of new renewable generation.

Customers can choose to add 100 kWh blocks of energy to their energy service for $1.25 per block. One block equals one-tenth of a renewable energy generation in the northwest.
