Do I need to purchase any special equipment?  No special equipment is needed.  Lyon-Lincoln Electric will fulfill all your electric needs while you enjoy the benefits of powering your home or business with renewable energy.

Where do RECs come from?  Our RECs come from several wind farms and solar projects in our region that supply renewable energy to the cooperative.

How much does it cost to power my home or business on 100% renewable energy?  $1 per MWh.  Example: If you use 1800 kWh per month, participating in the REC program would add $1.80 + tax to your monthly bill.
