The article even mentions that the utility provider ConEd in Brookyln offers green energy, so there's almost no point in LO3's services.

Not that I'm an expert in electrical grids, but I'd rather the actual grid coordinate a changeover to renewable sources, because these actors just sound like they're selling a scam that'll end with a class-action lawsuit someday.

But this company allows homeowners to sell their electricity in a competitive market instead of accepting the monopsony price of the electric system.
