To achieve virtually zero carbon dioxide emissions associated with electricity consumption in the residential and commercial sectors within the city's Decarbonization Leading Area, while promoting local production and consumption of renewable energy with a low environmental impact and the circulation of the regional economy, subsidies are provided within the limits of the budget for expenses required to install facilities that supply electricity generated from 100% renewable energy to consumers in the city through a retail electricity provider under an off-site PPA.
