Residential Rates

Orange County Power Authority (OCPA) is a not-for-profit, locally governed community energy provider. OCPA is committed to providing cleaner, renewable electricity choices at stable rates, and investing in innovative programs that help customers save energy and money. When customers enroll with OCPA, they reduce the carbon footprint associated with their electricity service 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, provide incentives for solar installations, and support energy efficiency programs.
