In Humboldt County, new electricity customers are automatically enrolled in RCEA’s Community Choice Energy program for their electricity generation service.

PG&E continues to maintain the poles and lines, remedies power outages, and provides a single consolidated bill. The only difference you’ll notice might be a slight decrease in your electricity bill. RCEA’s charge IS NOT an extra charge on your bill, it is for the electricity you use to power your home.

• Stay with our default electricity service called REpower, which costs slightly less than PG&E.
• Opt up to our premium service called REpower+, which is 100% renewable energy and costs just $0.01 more per kWh.
• Opt down to our default service if you had previously opted up to 100% renewable.
• Opt out of the program and remain a “bundled customer” of PG&E.
• Opt back in to RCEA’s service if you had previously opted out.

The choice is yours.

If you’re currently enrolled in any of PG&E’s various discount programs, such as CARE, FERA, or Medical Baseline programs, your coverage automatically continues under Community Choice Energy.
