but it's the mega watt hour. you can see the pg and e is at 445 and light green which is at 380 and 0 for deep green because it's 100 percent renewable. the question i get asked is what is it going to cost me if i switch to mce. the exciting thing is even with the highest percentage of renewable energies, it's lower. this year we're expect to save our customers $5.1 million. this is showing what the average monthly bill would cost for a customer. light green is a little bit cheaper than what pg and e would be charging. deep green is more expensive. we charge our customers an additional penny per kilo watt. and then whole shares, the 100% local solar project which is going to come online later this year is more expensive. it's linked to a feed and turf program that we offer. so the cost of shares is the cost of what we're paying the producer in our service area to build that. it's a rate that is locked in to a 20 year term because it's directly connected to this contract so it will never exceed that amount and the

the power density of wind energy is one watt per square meter.if we wanted to use wind energy to meet just incremental demand growth and what would it require? install roughly 280,000 megawatts of new wind energy capacity every year. doing so would make wire covering atlanta area of roughly 280,000 square kilometers, a land area nearly the size of italy and would have to do so every year. now come it's hard to even comprehend this so let me break this down. we are in manhattan. manhattan covers cracked -- 60 square columbus. going back to wind just to meet incremental demand growth with wind injured g8 would require us to cover roughly an area 13 times the size of manhattan island and we would have to do so everyday. this is the math. do the math. we did the math. and all the source of the decided you are in the book, by the way, to your friends, neighbors. you don't have to read it. you just have to buy it.
