Tradition Energy + SYSCO iCare = Green Energy

Uncover Hidden Profit In Your Energy Budget

Consumers are increasingly looking to patronize businesses that are engaging in sustainable, environmentally responsible practices.  Powering your restaurant with green energy is an easy way to signal your environmental commitment. 

Two Easy Ways to Green Your Restaurant’s Energy

1. Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) represent the environmental, social or other positive attributes of power generated by renewable resources like sun, wind, moving water, geothermal or other natural sources.  For example, RECs represent the reduced emissions of renewable generation compared with those of conventional fossil fuel generation.  RECs are purchased separately from, and in addition to, your conventional commodity energy supply.  1 MWh of power generated from renewable resources = 1 REC.
2. Green Power is conventional fossil fuel-generated electricity bundled with RECs.  Green power can be purchased from power suppliers as a single premium product, and you can choose to supply anywhere from 1% to 100% of your power with green energy.

Benefits of Environmental Stewardship

Buying green can help an organization meet environmental, financial, stakeholder relations, economic development and national security objectives by:

• Demonstrating civic leadership, generating positive publicity, improving employee morale, and differentiating products, services and brands.
