Nicolet Employees Participate in NatureWise Program



Nicolet College is always striving to keep our environment clean through participation in energy efficient programs. One of the programs it is currently participating is the NatureWise Program through Wisconsin Public Service. Employees who participate in the program through payroll deduction and 25% of the energy used is generated by renewable energy.

NatureWise fuel sources include:

  • Wind turbines that produce hundreds of kilowatts of energy through the harnessing of wind
  • Biogas harvested through natural occurring gases produced from wastes and landfills

 

Nicolet College received the Certificate of Partnership by the U.S Environmental Protection Agency's Green Power Partnership in recognition of their efforts to reduce the risk of environmental impact and climate change through green power purchasing.

 

How the NatureWise Program Works


Wisconsin Electric Service enrolls in NatureWise. You'll purchase 100-kilowatt-hour "blocks" of electricity for an additional $1 per block each month.* Buy as many or as few blocks as you'd like and stay enrolled as long as you choose. With the help of current NatureWise customers, Wisconsin Electric Service is adding more renewable energy to the electrical grid that supplies the communities of central and northeastern Wisconsin. And with your help, Wisconsin Public Service will add even more.
