Will I really receive electricity produced from renewable sources?
The electricity delivered under the CVPS Cow Power™ rider will be indistinguishable from other electricity supplied by the company because it is impossible to track the flow of electricity on the regional electric power grid.  This is unavoidable because all customers are served through the same transmission and distribution system.  Instead, the rider is designed to assure that CVPS Cow Power™ payments support qualifying renewable sources and farm-producers, or are made to the CVPS Renewable Development Fund as approved by state regulators.  By participating as a CVPS Cow Power™ customer, you will help create a market for this kind of renewable resource, provide direct incentives to farmers to generate electricity in this way, and supplant other forms of energy generation.
