Great Eastern Energy Certifies Customers as 'Green'

GEE Recognizes Businesses Committed to Sustainable Energy Practices


NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwired - Jul 29, 2015) -  Great Eastern Energy (GEE), an energy supplier of natural gas, electricity and energy solutions in the Northeast, will begin offering an additional incentive to consumers interested in renewable electricity plans. As part of GEE's commitment to sustainable energy, it will be recognizing those who do elect to "go green" by providing them with a 'Certified GEE Green' logo for display on their company website and on the front door of their establishment.

Further, renewable electricity customers will be offered a complimentary business audit by an Energy Advisor who will visit their location and suggest both physical (LED lights, smart thermostats, etc.) and behavioral changes that can reduce overall energy consumption. Once a renewable electricity plan is chosen and the contract is signed, the customer will receive Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) which promote renewable technologies that emit little or no carbon such as wind and solar.

"Renewable energy is becoming more important and widespread than ever before due to its lower environmental impact and cost efficiency," said Matthew Lanfear, CEO of Great Eastern Energy. "This will be the engine of U.S. economic growth and prosperity for years to come."

"Our mission is to empower people with the knowledge they need in order to make smarter energy decisions," said Virginie Glaenzer, Executive Vice President of Marketing and Customer Experience with GEE. "By promoting positive energy behaviors, such as using renewable energy, we hope to inspire the changes necessary for a sustainable future."

In addition to renewable electricity plans, GEE is proud to offer new and existing customers additional green and sustainable energy solutions such as LED lighting, solar services, efficiency financing and oil-to-gas conversion.

Great Eastern Energy also works with partners such as The White Roof Project, Trees for the Future, and Ampleen to spread the word on the benefits of energy efficiency and sustainable living. For more information on how you can reduce your daily energy consumption, check out GEE's 30 Green Tips.
