MCE

About Us

We Put People and the Planet First!

MCE’s top priorities are YOU — and the health of our planet. MCE is a not-for-profit public agency that has set the standard for clean energy in the Tiburon Peninsula, Marin County, and California since 2010. We offer renewable power options at stable rates, reduce energy-related greenhouse gas emissions, and reinvest millions of dollars in community benefit programs here in our local area.

MCE established California’s first Community Choice Aggregator (CCA) in Marin after a state law was passed to make this new type of energy provider possible. As the trailblazer for local clean energy, MCE was the first not-for-profit organization to offer electricity generation as an alternative to PG&E. With our launch in 2010, energy users in San Rafael now have a choice in electricity providers, along with the benefits of increased transparency and local reinvestment of ratepayer dollars by a public agency.

MCE provides electricity generation options that are more renewable and often lower cost to customers. We supply the electricity that was previously only available from PG&E and we do it in a way that delivers local improvements for our community and the environment. PG&E
delivers the electricity through power lines that they own and continues to provide gas service.
