Your Choice for Clean Energy
Clean Energy Columbus is the City of Columbus’ community choice aggregation program, providing cleaner energy and competitive rates for residents and small businesses in Columbus. With the ambitious goal for our community to be carbon neutral by 2050 – to ensure health, vibrant neighborhoods and community for generations to come – Clean Energy Columbus plays a big role in creating our sustainable future. Community Choice Aggregation is the process through which the City of Columbus contracts for energy on behalf of its residents and small businesses. Through two separate competitive bid processes, the City has contracted with Trebel Energy to consult and manage the program and with AEP Energy to provide 100% Ohio-based clean energy and supply the Clean Energy Columbus Program and small business.

Powering Ohio’s Future: Solar Projects and Sustainability Tips
Clean Energy Columbus continues to advance central Ohio’s clean energy landscape with projects like the Atlanta Farms Solar Project. Set to generate 199.6 megawatts (MW) and create over 300 clean energy jobs, Atlanta Farms will expand community access to renewable energy without the need for individual solar panel installation. This project is projected to generate $48 million in tax revenue over its lifetime and enhance energy reliability for central Ohioans. The project is nearly complete and will be powering the program soon. Stay tuned for updates and learn more about the project here.
In other Ohio sustainability news, Clinton Solar is a 49 MW solar farm currently under construction in Clinton County, Ohio. Like the Atlanta Farms project, it will use photovoltaic (PV) solar panels to capture sunlight and generate direct current (DC) electricity. The project is expected to enhance Ohio’s renewable energy portfolio, supporting both environmental goals and local economic development. Construction is in progress and operations are estimated to begin in the second half of 2025. Once completed, Clinton Solar will provide a stable and sustainable energy source to residents and businesses alike.
