	Green energy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Green energy is a term describing what is thought to be environmentally friendly sources of power and energy.
		Likewise, medium or large-scale hydroelectric power or sources of air pollution such as burning biomatter or petroleum, are often excluded from the label 'green energy'.
		Distribution of cheap renewable electric power via the electrical grid has made it possible in many countries for the average consumer to choose renewable electric power, and in the same manner Renewable natural gas may in future be made available to the average consumer via the existing gas grid.
