Standard Green

VCE offers three levels of electricity service. Our Standard Green is automatic for all customers.

VCE’s Standard Green service provides cleaner energy at lower rates than PG&E. We’re a not-for-profit agency that is run by locals. We serve our local community and our programs benefit our customers- not for-profit investors.

You can do even more to reduce your carbon footprint and support more renewable power by opting up to our premium level of service, called UltraGreen. Read more about UltraGreen here. If finances are tight, we also offer our Base Green rate, which is the lowest-cost electricity option available to you – it’s even cheaper than PG&E’s rate options.

Special Rate Customers

All of PG&E’s discount programs continue to apply when you’re a VCE customer. If you’ve been enrolled in one of these programs, there’s no need to re-apply:

  • California Alternative Rates for Energy (CARE)
  • Federal Electric Rate Assistance (FERA)
  • Medical Baseline Allowance (MBA)
  • Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP)
