We finally did it. The Marin Energy Authority said Marin County residents and businesses want at least 51% green power in the community-wide power mix, but at the same rates the incumbent (fossil gas, nuclear, large hydro 12% renewable PG&E) charges. Local Power put together a consortium that can roll out a 76% Renewable power to all Marin customers at Pacific Gas & Electric Corp.'s rates. Sound revolutionary to you? What can we say? It's a buyers' market. For what will eventually become a game-changing event - Check out Local Power Works LLC press release here.
