Fuel Mix and Emissions Disclosure
Administered by: DC Public Service Commission
Quick Summary
D.C. electricity suppliers are required to disclose the fuel mix and emissions of the electricity they sell you twice a year in your June and December billing cycles, so you can see what percentage comes from renewable sources and the carbon intensity of your power. This transparency helps you understand the environmental impact of your electricity choices and supports the District's progress toward its renewable energy goals, with the overall District fuel mix currently at approximately 23% renewable energy as of 2024.

Council on the overall fuel mix of electricity sold in the District, and the feasibility of the electric supplies in the District to provide a minimum percentage of electricity sold from renewable energy sources as provided in the District's Renewable Portfolio Standard. Electricity suppliers and electricity companies must also provide a fuel mix report to customers twice annually, within the June and December billing cycles.
