JM buys green electricity

JM buys green electricity JM has decided to buy eco-friendly, or "green" electricity, a decision that will affect both JM's own properties and so-called construction electricity. JM's tenant-owner associations will also be offered green energy. "The decision should be seen as a natural part of JM's environmental work. As the first company in the industry to formulate its own environmental policy (1994), this is entirely consistent with our environmental and ecological focus. By choosing green electricity, the supplier undertakes to produce a volume of electricity based on renewable energy sources (non-fossil fuels) equal to the amount of electricity we purchase. Today there is a limited amount of green electricity available - but if demand rises, market mechanisms could provide an incentive for increased production of renewable energy ", says JM's Environmental Manager Lennart Henriz. The added cost for green electricity relative to power produced by traditional means is SEK 0.002 per kWh. The supplier is Birka Energi.
