Pioneer Community Energy Announces Third Consecutive Year of Rate Cuts

This marks the third year since service from Pioneer Community Energy was launched for Grass Valley and Nevada City. Director of Communications Gina Stassi-Vanacore says it's also the third year in a row that the Board of Directors has approved rate reductions for customers. Pioneer Community Energy is the community choice energy program serving Nevada County, offering residents an alternative to PG&E for electricity generation. The program sources a higher percentage of renewable energy while maintaining competitive rates. The exact percentage of the rate cut has not yet been publicly specified, but the continued pattern of annual reductions signals financial stability for the program.
