Misson

Vision

To become a global leader and inspire innovative solutions to climate change by powering our communities with 100% renewable energy while prioritizing equity and sustainability

Who We Are

San Diego Community Power is a community-driven, not-for-profit public agency providing clean energy to the San Diego region. We serve nearly 1 million customers across six cities and the unincorporated communities of San Diego County.

كيف تعمل

We purchase energy generated from renewable sources, like solar or wind, which SDG&E then delivers to your home or business.

No Shareholders

Community Power is a public agency, meaning we don’t have shareholders. Instead, we reinvest revenues back into our local communities through lower electricity rates, education and customer programs that contribute to our goal of 100% renewable energy for the San Diego region by 2035 or sooner.

Our History

Formation

2019–2020

With support from local communities, Community Power was established as a Joint Powers Authority by five cities within the San Diego region. Community Power submitted an implementation plan to the California Public Utilities Commission, outlining the intended organizational structure, operations and funding. Once approved, our Board of Directors began to meet regularly, and implementation activities began. In 2020, a sixth city and the County of San Diego elected to join Community Power.
Enrollment

2021–2023

Through phased enrollment from 2021 through 2023, Community Power gradually became the official clean energy provider for our member agencies. Customers were automatically enrolled in our service and received two notices before and two notices after enrollment.
Today

2023–Present

Community Power is serving nearly 1 million customers with competitively priced clean energy, rolling out customer programs and rebates and supporting San Diego County’s energy-efficiency goals through the San Diego Regional Energy Network.

A Word from Karin Burns,
Chief Executive Officer

At San Diego Community Power, we are working to shape a future for our region that is both sustainable and equitable. To achieve that future, we introduced competition into the local energy marketplace, providing competitively priced clean energy and empowering our local communities with choice.

Since we began serving customers in 2021, Community Power has introduced unprecedented choice into the region, offering customers four different service plans to choose from. To date, we’ve also lowered electricity charges two years in a row so that our customers receive clean energy at the greatest possible value.

Whether it’s through clean energy, competitive pricing or customer programs that support our region’s energy-efficiency goals, Community Power strives to meet the diverse needs of our local communities. And as we continue to power the San Diego region with cleaner energy, our customers and their needs will remain at the center of everything we do.
