HALIFAX: Bullfrog Power, Canada’s leading green energy provider, and East Coast Credit Union are announcing a significant new environmental partnership.
East Coast Credit Union is choosing Bullfrog Power’s green electricity for all of its 20 branches and 30 ATMs across Nova Scotia, the largest green energy commitment of any credit union in Atlantic Canada.
“We’re so excited to welcome East Coast Credit Union to the bullfrogpowered community,” says Holly Bond, VP, regional sales, Bullfrog Power.
“By supporting green electricity with Bullfrog Power, East Coast Credit Union is taking important action on climate change and is demonstrating that businesses in Nova Scotia can be leaders in the transition to a low carbon economy.”
East Coast Credit Union is bullfrogpowering its branches and ATMs. That means that Bullfrog Power’s generators put 100 per cent clean, pollution-free electricity onto the grid to match the amount of conventional power that East Coast Credit Union’s branches and ATMs use.
Bullfrog Power’s green electricity comes from a blend of wind and low-impact hydro power sourced from new Canadian renewable energy facilities.
“By supporting green energy with Bullfrog Power, we’re reducing our environmental footprint and supporting the development of new community-based renewable energy projects across Canada,” says Ken Shea, CEO, East Coast Credit Union.
“In particular, we’re proud to support local renewable energy projects in Nova Scotia, such as the newly constructed Ellershouse Wind Farm.”
