Green energyis any electricity produced from a renewable energy source like wind, solar, biogas, geothermal, or low-impact small hydroelectric sources. (Compared to electricity produce by fossil fuels like coal and natural gas, which is definitely NOT green.) By signing up for a green energy el...
and thus introduce an amount of landfill volume into the environment. The goods or services themselves also have an environmental impact, as there generally is an amount of material used for an item that might not be biodegradable, there often is electricity required to produce an item that intr...
The utilities sector is broken into electricity, gas, and water utilities. Companies in this industry require a large amount of infrastructure and therefore hold large amounts of debt. When interest rates go up or down, debt payments will increase or decrease accordingly. Therefore, the sector ge...

Such innovation prompts systemic changes in electricity systems: traditional utilities will have to adopt new business models, new service providers will enter the energy sector, regulators will be granted new tasks, and final consumers will have to revise their consumption behaviour. Moreover, the ...
