Commentary
Orange County Power Authority (OCPA), an energy provider claiming to focus on “green power” as an alternative to Southern California Edison (Edison), recently announced a new rate reduction for its Basic Choice product that is 2 percent lower than Edison pricing, now in effect. The rate reduction is timely considering public distrust and whispers of city departures from OCPA.
