About Public Grid

Energy is better
with neighbors

We believe everyone should have a fair price for electricity and an easy way to use cleaner energy. That’s why we started Public Grid.

What we believe

Energy shouldn’t
feel this hard

01

It shouldn’t take a second job

Today, saving on electricity means reading fine print, filling out forms and hoping you picked the right plan. We think that’s backwards.

What’s a supply rate?Do I qualify for help?So many formsWhich plan is right?

Saving should be simple

Everyone deserves a fair price and cleaner power, without the paperwork. So we take care of the hard parts, and you get to keep living your life.

Taken care of

  • Found your savings
  • Filled out the forms
  • Signed you up
03

We’re stronger together

When neighbors team up, everyone pays less, and more clean energy reaches the grid we all share. One home can help, and a whole community can change things.
