Introducing: WestLight Energy

Peninsula Clean Energy is now WestLight Energy.

Effective July 1, we updated our name to WestLight Energy, because it’s clearer and better reflects the communities we serve.

The name and brand have changed, but our mission and commitment to the community are the same. We are still your community electricity provider.

Your service and rates are not changing. We’ll continue to offer ways to help you save money and use clean energy at home and in your daily life.

WestLight Energy provides your electricity from sources like wind, solar, geothermal, and hydro, while PG&E delivers it and maintains the poles and wires.

Why is the organization changing its name?

A decade ago, neighbors, cities, and local leaders came together to build something new: a community-driven approach to energy on the Peninsula. Together, we’ve shown that electricity can be cleaner, more affordable, and focused on community.

Now, as we enter our second decade, we’ve updated our name to WestLight Energy. It’s easier to say and better reflects the communities we serve.

It also makes our role clearer: WestLight Energy provides your electricity from sources like wind, solar, geothermal, and hydro, while PG&E delivers it and maintains the poles and wires.

As more homes and businesses switch to electric, from vehicles to heating, we’re focused on making clean energy work in more parts of everyday life. WestLight Energy reflects that broader role in powering our communities.

WestLight Energy helps us capture something bigger: the spirit of the West, the promise of light, and the forward momentum of the work we’re doing together to decarbonize our communities in San Mateo County and Los Banos.

WestLight Energy is easier to say, spell, and remember. It reflects our full service area and helps reduce confusion with our partners at PG&E, making it easier for customers to understand their service and get the support they need.

Clean energy has been part of our identity since the very beginning, and we understand why people feel connected to the word “clean.” It matters to us, too. While the word “clean” no longer appears in our name, our commitment to providing our customers with clean energy is not changing. In fact, we just celebrated four significant new projects:
Only the name is changing. Clean energy is still at the core of our mission and what we do.

No, this is only a name change. Your service and account are not changing.

As a WestLight Energy customer, you will continue to receive:

    • Same clean energy: ECOplus customers will continue to receive 100% clean electricity with at least 50% coming from renewable sources. ECO100 customers will continue to receive electricity that is 100% renewable and carbon-free.
    • Same energy services: Your rates, rebates, and available offers are not changing.
    • Same delivery service: PG&E will continue delivering electricity to your home or business using their poles and wires.

Effective July 1, the name WestLight Energy is now included on our website and in communications from us, with your energy bill reflecting the new name beginning in mid-July.

There’s nothing you need to do. Your service will continue as usual.

No, there has been no change of ownership. WestLight Energy remains a public power agency that is governed by a Board of elected officials from each member jurisdiction.
