Offers will be accepted between March 20 and April 14, 2023, and will be evaluated and shortlisted on a rolling basis.

Serving a 1,200-megawatt peak load, MCE provides electricity service and programs to more than 575,000 customer accounts and 1.5 million residents and businesses in 37 communities across four Bay Area counties: Contra Costa, Marin, Napa, and Solano.
