After making the switch to our new green electricity provider earlier in the week we received confirmation that the change from Southern Electric to ecotricity has already been made :)

We've just submitted our meter reading online through the ecotricity website, so now all we have to do is sit back and enjoy the fact that we're actually contributing to investment in renewable energy, chiefly windfarms.

So forget the big players like e.on and edf energy; go green, buy British and sign up to ecotricity. If you sign up through via uSwitch.com you'll get a £40 discount voucher to spend at Virgin Wines (although we'd actually be saving £40 if we didn't buy the wine in the first place!)
