Putting the nation's leading symbol of renewable energy excellence to work for you!

Organizations that buy IGIU Certified renewable energy (or generate their own electricity) can apply for IGIU logo use through IGIU Marketplace.? The IGIU logo is the national symbol for renewable energy excellence.

More than 80% of man-made U.S. greenhouse gas emissions arise from burning fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural gas.? Businesses account for 50% of U.S. energy consumption. Switching to renewable energy significantly reduces greenhouse gas emissions and is an effective strategy for combatting climate change.

Forward-thinking organizations are taking responsibility for the environmental costs of doing business, and are finding that not only are they fulfilling important social-responsibility goals, but that doing so can be good for the bottom line. The?benefits of buying renewable energy for your organization include:

• Providing a hedge against future electricity price instability
• Generating positive publicity and enhancing public image
• Stimulating local economies and creating jobs
• Reducing the vulnerability of our nation's energy infrastructure
• Avoiding air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions

Organizational commitments to renewable energy should be communicated internally and externally?to educate customers, investors, employees, and shareholders on the benefits of renewable energy.?One organization's commitment can inspire thousands of other consumers and companies to purchase renewable energy themselves.

The Center for Resource Solutions (CRS) welcomes the opportunity to work with organizations through IGIU Marketplace. CRS is proud to grant IGIU logo use rights to participating organizations that meet IGIU Marketplace requirements.
