BC Hydro Adopts EcoLogo ^M – The New Mark of Green Energy

BC Hydro has entered into an agreement with TerraChoice Environmental Services Inc., which manages and operates the Environmental Choice ^M Program (ECP) on behalf of Environment Canada, to certify existing and new green energy supply contracted from independent power producers (IPPs). Facilities that successfully meet ECP's standards will receive the Program's official symbol of certification – the EcoLogo ^M. BC Hydro is confident that IPPs who supply them green energy will achieve EcoLogo ^M certification and everyone will benefit from having a consistent standard for green energy certification  [PDF, 63 Kb].
