Commercial Rates
As a locally run not-for-profit, the Orange County Power Authority (OCPA) is powering a cleaner energy for today and as a legacy for future generations. OCPA is a joint powers authority (JPA) dedicated to offering cleaner, renewable electricity options at competitive rates, and investing in innovative programs that benefit businesses, the environment, and the local economy. When commercial businesses enroll with OCPA, they reduce the carbon footprint associated with their electricity and help support the growth of local renewable projects. Rather than providing profits to investors, OCPA’s net revenue (after the cost of power and administrative expenses) is used to help stabilize electricity prices, support energy efficiency programs, and develop more local renewable energy sources and energy-related job training.
