Green energy: powered by nature
For decades, the UK has been fuelled by dirty energy. Burning fossil fuels shaped our past, but green energy is our future!
What’s green energy?
Green energy is renewable energy.
It comes from renewable sources like the wind, sun, and sea. The fact they’re renewable means we’ll never run out of them.
The best thing about taking energy from these natural resources is that they’re cleaner and healthier. Plus, they’ll be here for us for generations to come!

Benefits of green energy
- Renewable electricity is called “renewable” because it won’t run out – the sunshine, wind, and tides will go on forever
- Green energy is low carbon, meaning it has little or no carbon footprint
- It’s cleaner, and better for our health, than burning fossil fuels
- And cutting down on pollution is better for our planet’s health, too!
