The utility takes the energy directly from the RE project and “sleeves” it to the buyer at its point of intake, for a fee. If the purchased renewable energy isn’t enough to meet the buyer’s energy needs, the utility is also responsible for supplying the additional power required.” Scott’s Thoughts on The Future of the Industry  --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/builtforlife/message
