Green Power Partnership Program Results

Since 2001, the Partnership has made considerable progress in addressing market barriers to green power procurement and use. The GPP brings value to its Partners by offering technical resources and recognizing environmental leadership.

At the end of calendar year 2021, more than 700 EPA Green Power Partners were using a total of more than 85 billion kilowatt-hours (kWh) of green power annually, which:

  • Is equivalent to the annual electricity use of more than 8 million average American homes. 1
  • Represents 35 percent of the total voluntary green power market in the United States. 2
  • Represents more than 2 percent of total annual retail electricity sales in the United States. 3
