>> we don't see a down psi. you know, we are staying competitive, which i think is important for continuing to market the supergreen component of this programme. the object civ to grow that component of our programme. i think staying competitive is attractive and that's part of what is accomplished with the reductions that were just described. but, again, we're still covering our costs so i think we're overall good and have the right balance. >> the other thing i would add is with the green product, it's opt-out. but for supergreen, you have to opt-in. and if there is a solar choice that pg&e is offering that is cheaper, then when you start looking at your options, you may choose to go with pg&e options. so, i think that is why we really want to be competitive so that we can have both and supergreen customers. >> and then, of course, we're staying active at the cpuc to make sure that the rates that pg&e is charging are cost compensatory and they're not subsidizing across rate groups that. was the regulatory item
