NaturalPower

What is Natural Power?

NaturalPower is energy that is generated from renewable sources. These are sources that cannot be depleted or can be replaced, such as solar and wind. Generating renewable energy produces little or no greenhouse gas and therefore has minimal impact on the environment.

NaturalPower is accredited by the National GreenPower Accreditation Program.
The GreenPower logo is your independent guarantee that NaturalPower comes from genuine, government approved renewable energy sources. NaturalPower is sourced only from accredited GreenPower generated in WA.

How does it work?

All energy generated (coal-fuelled, solar, wind, hydro,etc) goes into ‘the grid’ and a mix of those energy types is delivered to your business. When you switch to NaturalPower you will still receive a mix of energy types, as it is not practical to install additional power lines just to carry NaturalPower. However, we guarantee the amount of energy you use will be sourced from renewable sources from WA. The benefits to the environment of delivering NaturalPower this way are the same as those that would be gained from delivering it directly to your business and it ensures you have a reliable energy supply all year round.

Essentially, the more NaturalPower sold, the greater the demand for renewable energy will be. This will stimulate further investment in WA renewable generation for the future.

It doesn’t cost the earth

NaturalPower only costs an extra 4.4c per unit including GST. Give us a call on 13 13 54 and we can work out how much it will cost your business. You just need to have your last bill with you and decide what percentage of your electricity you’d like to be NaturalPower (10%, 25%, 50%, 75% or 100%).

Where does my money go?

Synergy puts the extra money you pay towards purchasing renewable energy, which in general is more expensive to produce. As a GreenPower accredited product, all NaturalPower is purchased from 'new' sources (commissioned after 1 January 1997), to stimulate and support development of the renewable energy industry.
