For over a decade I've been affiliated with one of the world's largest web hosts, 1&1. I'm pleased to be an authorized reseller of their green hosting services. That's right, green hosting.1&1 has partnered with the Bonneville Environmental Foundation (BEF) to offset 100% of the energy usage of our data center in Lenexa, Kansas by purchasing Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs). 1&1’s renewable energy purchase for the facility is enough clean energy to power at least 300 U.S. homes for one year!1&1 and BEF work in tandem with Green-e, the nation's leading voluntary certification program for renewable energy, to power our data center with clean, renewable energy. Green-e certifies renewable energy that meets environmental and consumer protection standards that it developed in conjunction with leading environmental, energy and policy organizations.1&1 has also been recognized by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as a Green Power Partner for its annual purchase of 17.5 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) of green power (electricity that is generated from environmentally preferable renewable resources, like wind, solar, hydroelectric and geothermal).
