Clean energy operates by producing needed power without having negative environmental impacts such as the release of greenhouse gasses like carbon dioxide. Local governments can dramatically reduce their carbon footprint by purchasing or directly generating electricity from clean, renewable sources.

- Solar (photovoltaic, solar thermal)
- Wind
- Biogas (e.g., landfill gas/wastewater treatment digester gas)
- Geothermal
- Biomass
- Low-impact hydroelectricity
- Emerging technologies – wave and tidal power
Generating energy that produces no greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuels and reduces some types of air pollution. Diversifying energy supply and reducing dependence on imported fuels. It Creates economic development and jobs in manufacturing, installation, and more.
