Business Community

There are a number of programs for businesses to reduce their environmental impact and their bottom line. Many Dublin businesses have shown leadership in environmental action. 

Electricity Accounts Transitioning to East Bay Community Energy Renewable 100 Electricity in October 2022

To help achieve its Climate Action Plan goals, the City of Dublin receives its electricity from East Bay Community Energy (EBCE), a local energy provider supplying greener electricity to all cities in Alameda County plus the City of Tracy. EBCE has been the default supplier of electric generation service for all residential, commercial, and municipal accounts in Dublin since 2018. In October 2022, Dublin non-residential energy accounts were automatically enrolled in Renewable 100 electricity. All municipal accounts have been on Renewable 100 since July 2019 and residential customers transitioned in January 2022. 

For more information on the transition to Renewable 100, visit the City’s business energy webpage. To view a recording of a webinar hosted by EBCE, visit https://ebce.org/dublin/. 

Green Shamrock Business Program Update

The City of Dublin launched the Green Shamrock Business Program in order to highlight the environmental success of local Dublin businesses. Becoming a Green Shamrock Business can save you money and help to improve the greenhouse gas emissions for the City as a whole! The City is working on updating this program to make it more convenient for businesses to learn cost-saving, environmental practices and be recognized for their actions.
