Maryland Energy and Electric Suppliers

What sets Spring Power & Gas apart from other Maryland electric providers is that we’re an environmentally-friendly supplier using Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs) and carbon offsets.

RECs are a way to keep track of previously unused renewable energy as it enters the grid. After energy enters the grid, it’s impossible to tell where it came from, so when someone’s unused power feeds back to the grid, the owner gets a REC.

Spring Power & Gas uses RECs by buying an hour of energy from a renewable source like wind or solar for every hour of energy you use.

Carbon offsets are a way to balance out personal carbon emissions. We invest in programs that help reduce carbon emissions. We’ll neutralize any carbon-producing gas you use with investments in carbon offsets.

If you want to learn more about RECs and carbon offsets, check out our Energy FAQ page.

We set up our energy plans to match your energy use by up to 100% using RECs and carbon offsets. Our plans include the following:

• Spring Green 50 or 100: You can choose an electricity plan to match 50% or 100% of your usage with RECs.
• Zero Gas 50 or 100: You choose a gas plan that will match 50% or 100% of your usage with carbon offsets.

We service across the entire state including Baltimore. We know having an environmentally-friendly world means thinking big and small. That’s why we focus on community groups as well as international ones. We like to do this not only because it’s good for the environment but because it encourages others to join the cause.

Any local Maryland nonprofit organization sharing our values is eligible to partner with us on projects to improve the state’s environment.
