The Marin Energy Authority, made up of officials from the county and most of its cities and towns, plans to compete with Pacific Gas and Electric to provide more renewable energy. PG&E opposes the plan and is pushing for a ballot measure that would allow taxpayers to decide whether their local governments can take on the job of energy provider.

Guests:

Dawn Weisz, interim director of the Marin Energy Authority

Severin Borenstein, co-director and professor at The Energy Institute at UC Berkeley's Haas School of Business

Paul Fenn, president of Local Power Incorporated

Jeanne MacLeamy, mayor of Novato

David Rubin, director of service analysis for PG&E
