Green Access

100% renewable energy at a discount for select customers to support energy equity

Be Green. Save Green.

MCE’s Green Access program provides you with 100% renewable energy service, along with an additional 20% discount on electricity bills. You’ll save money and help fight climate change at the same time!

MCE is building an over 4 MW solar farm located nearby that will eventually provide 100% renewable energy for Green Access participants. While it’s being built, energy for Green Access participants will come from the Cottonwood solar project located in Kern and Kings Counties.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know if I’m enrolled in MCE’s Green Access program?

There are three ways to see if you’re enrolled in MCE’s Green Access program:

1. You received a mailed enrollment notice
  MCE mailed all Green Access participants a letter to notify them about their new 20% discount and 100% renewable energy service.
2. You can check your PG&E bill
  If you’re enrolled in MCE’s Green Access program, the electricity portion of your PG&E bill will include a “Green Access Discount” line on the “Details of MCE Electric Generation Charges” page.
3. You can ask us
  Contact us at info@mceCleanEnergy.org or call (888) 632-3674 Mon–Fri from 9 am to 5 pm. Please have your PG&E account number available so that we can determine if you’re enrolled in MCE’s Green Access program.

How do I enroll in MCE’s Green Access program?

To make enrollment as easy as possible, MCE automatically enrolled customers who are eligible. The program is currently at maximum capacity and is not enrolling additional customers.

How long will I receive the 20% discount?

MCE’s Green Access program will run through August 2041. You’ll receive the 20% discount until that time or until you’re no longer eligible, whichever comes first.

What happens if I’m enrolled in other discount programs?

MCE’s Green Access program’s 20% discount is on top of your current electricity rates and can be combined with discounts from most other programs. Your eligibility in these other programs will not be affected.

Does the 20% discount apply to my entire PG&E bill?

MCE’s Green Access program’s 20% discount applies to your total electricity charges from MCE (electric generation) and PG&E (electric delivery). However, it does not apply to the gas portion of your PG&E bill.

How do I opt out of Green Access?

You may opt out at any time by contacting us at info@mceCleanEnergy.org. Participants who opt out of MCE’s Green Access program may not be able to return at a later date due to the program’s limited capacity.
