The cities of Berkeley, Dublin, Emeryville, and San Leandro have recently committed their cities to transition to renewable energy for their electricity supply. East Bay Community Energy (EBCE) has been the default supplier of electric generation service for accounts in these cities since 2018. In October 2022, all commercial accounts will transition from their current plan with EBCE to the Renewable 100 plan. This plan is made up of 100% Californian wind and solar energy at a price of less than 1 cent per KWh above PG&E’s default rate. Join the webinar to learn about this transition and ask any questions for live responses from EBCE.
