Green Technology: Bullfrog Power

Green technology has become extremely popular over the last few years. Unfortunately green power generation is impractical for most people. High cost of installation, system maintenance,  and a long payoff are the key reasons people are slow to jump on green power. However, most people don't mind paying a little extra for green power which is where Bullfrog Power comes in. The way it works is you estimate your power consumption and report it. Heres a video that explains the concept in a bit more detail. In return you get invoiced for the extra cost per kw/h for green power, in BC this works out to $.02 per kw/h. Overall this is usually less than a dollar a day. So you buy certified green energy, and offset your power usage; it requires no long term investment, and not only are you helping the environment now, but supporting the industry for power generation in the future.
