Percentage of Retail Sales Covered by Retired Unbundled RECs3

1The eligible renewable percentage above does not reflect RPS compliance, which is determined using a different methodology.
2Unspecified power is electricity that has been purchased through open market transactions and is not traceable to a specific generation source.
3Renewable energy credits (RECs) are tracking instruments issued for renewable generation. Unbundled renewable energy credits (RECs) represent renewable generation that was not delivered to serve retail sales. Unbundled RECs are not reflected in the power mix or GHG emissions intensities above.
The unbundled RECs retired in association with LADWP’s 2023 electricity portfolios were sourced from eligible renewable energy generators such as biomass, biowaste, geothermal, eligible hydroelectric, solar, and wind energy resources.
