〔http://alamedaca.gov/alameda-municipal-power/about-us〕 Alameda Municipal Power (formerly Alameda Power & Telecom) is a municipal utility serving the City of Alameda, California. Founded in 1887,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.alamedamp.com/about-us/125-anniversary/400-history )〕 it provides electricity to approximately 34,000 residential, commercial, and municipal customers at rates up to 20 percent below neighboring communities. As Alameda Power & Telecom, the utility previously provided Cable TV and high-speed Internet services to city residents; their system was acquired by Comcast on November 21, 2008 for $17 million. The estimated net result of this venture was a loss of more than $60 million for the City of Alameda.〔(City Treasurer, Auditor on Alameda Power & Telecom Telecom Sale ). action-alameda-news.com. November 26, 2008 〕 During 2014, 22 percent of AMP’s power mix came from renewable resources, including biomass (landfill gas) from Pittsburg, Butte, Santa Cruz and Richmond, CA; small hydroelectric from Graeagle and Central Valley CA; and winds from the High Winds Project in Sonoma County, CA. An additional 15 percent of the power mix came from large hydroelectric projects in Calaveras, Shasta, and Central Valley, CA (California does not count power from large hydroelectric dams as renewable). Altogether, AMP’s power is 37% carbon neutral in 2014. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Alameda Municipal Power」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
