How do I enroll in EBCE?
East Bay Community Energy began serving Dublin residential, business, and municipal electricity customers in 2018. to help meet greenhouse gas emissions reductions goals set in the City of Dublin's Climate Action Plan 2030 and Beyond, the Dublin City Council voted in January 2021 to set the default energy option for Dublin residences to EBCE's Renewable 100 service, which began in January 2022. The City of Dublin has opted up to Renewable 100 for all of its municipal accounts since July 2019. Renewable 100 is 100% wind and solar energy at an additional cost of one-cent per kilowatt-hour above PG&E rates. You do not need to take any action to participate. PG&E still delivers your home energy. You will continue to receive bills directly to PG&E, and PG&E will continue to provide the the same reliable service.

Rates and Billing
EBCE electricity rates will be set through a transparent public process and approved by the EBCE Board of Directors, who are elected officials from all participating jurisdictions. Members of the public are encouraged to participate in publicly noticed hearings for each step of the process.
If you have any questions about your electric bill, check out: Understanding Your Bill, or call 1-833-699-3223.
You have three options for electricity service:
- Renewable 100: the default option for Dublin customers which offers 100% renewable and carbon-free electricity for one-cent per kilowatt-hour above PG&E rates (about $5/month more for a typical Dublin home).
- Bright Choice: priced at 3% below PG&E rates.
- Choose to continue to purchase power directly from PG&E by opting out of EBCE.
