Green Power Community Usage Requirements

The following table outlines the respective EPA Green Power Community (GPC) usage requirements based on the community's electricity use. Working with your local utility or power provider, determine the amount of electricity used within the community boundary (city limits). The community must collectively use green power in amounts that meet or exceed the corresponding percentage for the matching baseload electricity use level.
