George Brown College invests in green electricity
TORONTO, ON - Bullfrog Power, Canada’s 100 per cent green electricity provider, announced today that George Brown College has chosen clean, renewable electricity for its classrooms at both 215 King St. East and The Chefs’ House restaurant. The decision is part of George Brown’s Green Plan, a college-wide framework aimed at reducing the environmental footprint of the organization’s buildings and programs. By choosing Bullfrog’s clean, emissions-free electricity as a new initiative within the plan, George Brown College is further reducing its impact on the environment, while now also supporting the development of new wind power in Canada.

Through the agreement, Bullfrog's generators inject clean, renewable electricity onto the regional grid to match the amount of power the respective facilities use. In Ontario, Bullfrog Power’s electricity comes exclusively from local wind and hydro facilities that have been certified as low impact by Environment Canada under its EcoLogoM program — instead of from polluting sources like coal, oil, natural gas and nuclear. Bullfrog Power uses the collective demand of its customers to cause new renewable facilities to be built. Several new wind turbines have been commissioned in the country as a result of the support of bullfrogpowered homes and businesses.
