Public Power for Montgomery County

Montgomery County deserves a reliable electric system. We can get one--a Public Utility answering to the people, not stockholders.

Where does the electricity come from?

Another question is that will be have to build a power plant for our own electricity? No we do not. A public utility will buy electricity wholesale on the open market. We will not need our own power plant. 

We will be able to control the electricity’s source, so no coal or nuclear if we choose not to use it.

Also, while many of us use Clean Currents or other alternatives to provide us renewable-sourced electricity, our own public utility can do the same at a lower cost buying in larger amounts directly from electric generators.
