Peninsula Clean Energy is operating under its new name: WestLight Energy and starting July 17, customers who already receive their electricity from Peninsula Clean Energy will begin seeing the name WestLight Energy on their monthly utility bills.
Founded in 2016, the public agency procures 100% clean energy, at rates typically 5-10% lower than PG&E, for more than 314,000 households and businesses across San Mateo County and Los Banos, according to the agency.
“The renaming of Peninsula Clean Energy to WestLight Energy reflects a new chapter for our Agency,” Marty Medina, chair of the board, said in a press release. “Our next chapter goes beyond rate savings and clean power procurement and seeks to expand customer benefits and community energy investments that are responsive to local needs.”
WestLight Energy procures clean energy for customers, facilitates the transition from gas to electric locally through home and business electrification services, and advocates for state and federal policies that advance a cleaner, more reliable grid. It is a public agency that reinvests its resources in customer savings and community energy programs. It was founded in 2016.
