Who says you can’t get quality and value?

The EnergyRight® Solutions Program from TVA and Newport Utilities encourages, communicates, and supports the wise and efficient use of electricity in homes and businesses.

The EnergyRight® Program offers homeowners a simple path to make their homes as efficient as possible. Through rebates on eligible improvements performed by a Quality Contractor Network member, EnergyRight® allows homeowners to work at their own pace toward their home’s goal of a 10, re-engaging with the program as many times as needed to achieve their home’s best possible energy performance. 

EnergyRight’s Home Uplift program helps homeowners make home upgrades that will save money on their monthly electric bills. It’s all about creating change that improves quality of life.

Local businesses may qualify for financial incentives that help offset costs associated with energy upgrade projects.

Renewable energy available today!

Green Switch makes it easy to support clean, green renewable energy.

Join thousands of Valley residents who are using renewable energy to power their homes and businesses through Green Switch. For as little as $2 per month, you can reduce your environmental impact by supporting solar, wind and biomass renewable energy generated within the Tennessee Valley.

Green Switch – originally called Green Power Switch – was launched by Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) in 2000 as the first green power program in the Southeast. Since its launch, Green Switch prices have decreased drastically, making renewable energy an affordable option.

By choosing to participate, you are making an environmentally responsible choice and reducing your footprint.

Support energy efficiency and renewable energy!

Thanks to TVA’s Dispersed Power Production program, a facility that generates (or co-generates) up to 80 MW of renewable power may qualify to connect to TVA’s power lines.

Once connected, a qualifying facility can use its power for itself and sell any extra power to TVA at TVA’s avoided costs, or it may sell all of its power to TVA at TVA’s avoided costs. (Avoided cost simply means the wholesale rate TVA projects for itself with no incentives or retail mark-up).

This program supports our efforts to promote energy efficiency, increase renewable energy (e.g., hydro, wind, solar) and provide the Valley with low-cost, reliable and clean power.

To participate in the program and sell power to TVA, call (423) 751-8640 or email dpp@tva.gov and request a standard contract.
