In fact, we encourage you to stay with your utility, keeping the exact same relationship you've always had, while you upgrade to green energy. If you're in a still-regulated electric market, we deliver a green energy option to you and millions of others who have never had this choice before. You don't have to wait for deregulation to come to you. Green energy is a choice you can make now. Now to explain how our unique business works . . .
Green energy comes in two basic forms.
First, there's the commodity. This is the actual electricity produced at facilities that capture the energy of the sun, wind and other renewable sources. These tickets verify the sources of green energy production. Each ticket represents the premium value of one megawatt hour of certified renewable power generation, above the price of the commodity energy delivered into the transmission grid. If you live outside of California, you may not have heard about green tickets before.
