MCE Local Sol Program

In addition to MCE's Deep Green program, businesses can also choose to opt up to MCE's Local Sol 100-percent local solar option. With energy produced by a local solar farm located in Novato, California, Local Sol truly is local. Become a Local Sol founding customer to promote the growth of our local green economy. 

How is Local Sol different from Deep Green?

MCE's Deep Green program and Local Sol program both offer 100% renewable options for businesses. The major differences are the source, location, and price of power. 

More information to sign up for 100% local solar energy for your business can be found at the MCE Local Sol page: www.mcecleanenergy.org/100-local-solar/.
