Anyone use ECOtricity?

Been sent a link to change to Ecotricity by Friends of the Earth... anyone use Ecotricity and is it a genuine green product or just a sop to 'green energy'?

Link to website doesn't work if copied and pasted on here which is odd.

That's happened three times to me too RR... yet the weblink from Friends of the Earth works until you cut and paste it somewhere else.

That webpage no longer exists.

Their website states...

"With Ecotricity, you not only get 100% green electricity and carbon neutral green gas."

I mean, how do they do that? Do they run new power cables from the wind farm to my house? And where do they get their carbon neutral gas from, and how will the tanker get it into my heating?

Sounds a load of guff to me.

Link works for me.

They appear to rely, for their claims, on wind power companies that are now dissolved, along with nuclear power. However the reliance on the latter is dropping, going by their own estimates. It's owing more than it's making at present.
