After over a year in the making, the Orange County Power Authority (OCPA) will be launching an electricity service for commercial customers beginning in April.
Launched in late 2020, the power authority is Orange County’s first “community choice energy” program that seeks to provide greener energy to residents and businesses in the county. Power authority officials will in essence take over Southern California Edison’s (SCE) role as the buyer and seller of electricity, though SCE’s facilities will still be transporting the power authority’s energy to homes and businesses.
