Our Power Content Label
The California Energy Commission’s Power Content Label is
designed to protect you as an energy consumer. This label shows
the variety of resources used to generate California’s—and
Alameda’s—electricity. Two columns allow you to compare
the power ‘content’ (or resource mix) of your electricity with
the statewide California Power Mix.**
