How does Los Angeles DWP promote sustainable energy?
The Los Angeles energy infrastructure is unique and experimental because the government electric provider competes directly with an investor-owned utility. The vast majority of energy providers in the USA are commercial companies focused on profitability. The Los Angeles city-owned electric company competes with corporate providers to increase competition, reduce costs, and promote clean energy. The present initiative is to replace the city's aging, unsustainable infrastructure with renewable energy sources like wind turbines and solar power. |
