It was just a matter of time, before the insurance industry started paying attention and rewarding drivers who buy and use green cars.

Because of the continued increase in the sales of hybrid, electric, and other alternative fueled vehicles, CIS based in the U.K. has decided to reward eco-drivers. The company states that those who drive a green vehicle that emits less than 120g of carbon dioxide per kilometer, will receive a 10% discount on their premium and that a portion of the premium will be directed to ClimateCare.org, a carbon-offsetting project organization.
CIS, otherwise known as Co-operative Ins, is also a model of socially responsibility in other facets of its operations, as evidenced by its headquarters where some 7,000 solar panels were constructed, and for its insurance claims, it uses environmentally friendly garage operators.
Geico for the socially conscious masses.
