If you're not able to put PV on your roof because you live in a flat or something, why not switch suppliers and go to a green competitor?

I'm living in a rural area which has only an electric coop as the sole provider.Since we're self-owned,any efficiencies are returned to us as stake-holders,and since 2009,the coop has provided an option for members to access renewable energy.
The coop owns 2-solar photovoltaic farms but I can't afford it.
The coop's wind option only costs an extra penny per kW-hr.
I'm no longer in a position to afford my own PV or wind system.
