WARREN – Customers who get their cable, telephone or Internet service from the independent local provider Full Channel Inc. can now have it powered by renewable energy.
Full Channel customers who sign up for the company’s new GreenLink program will pay $1 extra each month. The local nonprofit People’s Power & Light will use the money to purchase power from wind farms located in New England. The group has partnered with National Grid on a similar program for electricity customers, New England GreenStart.
“These are not just carbon credits or offsets,” Levi Maaia, Full Channel’s vice president, said in a news release. “Besides reducing harmful emissions, our customers will actually support new renewable energy products in New England when they choose GreenLink.”
Full Channel, which serves about 7,000 subscribers in the East Bay, says it takes about 60,000 kilowatt hours of electricity each month to deliver service to residential and commercial customers in Barrington, Warren and Bristol. •
