We encourage local women-, minority-, and LGBTQ+-owned businesses to certify with the California Public Utility Commission’s Supplier Clearinghouse. You can also certify as a small business or a disabled veteran-owned business with the Department of General Services Certification program. Certified vendors will be listed in directories that MCE and other utilities can access for our contracting needs.
When diverse businesses thrive, we all thrive. Our annual Supplier Diversity Report (pdf) captures our efforts to create a sustainable and diverse clean energy workforce.
