PG&E Gests Go-Ahead for Geothermal Deal.


The PUC approved PG&E's plan to contract with an Oregon company for up to 120 megawatts of geothermal power under the RPS program. About 12% of PG&E's customer load is supplied by alternative energy sources that qualify under RPS.

According to Renewable Energy Access.com:

"Since PG&E began its RPS Program, it has entered into contracts for nearly 1,100-megawatts of renewable energy -- wind, geothermal, biomass and hydro resources."
