5As of December 2017, we replaced our Greener Energy plan with the Green Energy add-on. This optional add-on lets our customers add 100% renewable electricity to any plan (flexible or fixed). The original Greener Energy plan is now only available through price comparison websites – this is because these sites can't implement the new add-on, and we don't want anyone to miss out on 100% renewable electricity.
