What if the Department of Public Utilities has not purchased enough LA GREEN to meet the monthly demand?
The Department of Public Utilities initially purchased 200,000 kilowatt-hours (the average household uses approximately 500 kilowatt-hours per month) of renewable energy credits. The Department will buy additional credits as required to meet the demand from its customers. It recently purchased 5,000 MW of renewable energy credits or 5,000,000 KW, which will cover the demand for 2 to 3 years.
