Today's energy customers aren't just paying for power; they're investing in a verifiable, resilient, and technologically advanced green future, and they'll happily switch to and even pay more for any provider that can clearly prove they're building it.

How We Rate Confidence

Models

Every statistic is queried across four AI models (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, Perplexity). The confidence rating reflects how many models return a consistent figure for that data point. Label assignment per row uses a deterministic weighted mix targeting approximately 70% Verified, 15% Directional, and 15% Single source.
