Financial Resources

Please note that customers enrolled in financial assistance programs before starting services with San Diego Community Power will remain enrolled in any active programs. You do not need to reapply after starting services with San Diego Community Power.

Similarly, San Diego Community Power customers still qualify for any electricity discount programs that they may have participated in with SDG&E. 

Financial resources available to you include:

    • Medical Baseline Allowance: Provides households with certain medical devices or climate control needs with an additional amount of electricity to use at the lowest rates

You may be eligible for additional assistance programs or discounts that may help to lower your electric bill. For more information about these programs and other bill assistance options and to determine your eligibility, please visit SDG&E’s website at sdge.com/assistance.

COVID-19 Bill Assistance

Residential customers are also eligible to receive bill assistance to address the financial impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.

If you have outstanding bills that are past due and are a CARE or FERA customer, you may qualify for debt forgiveness through the Arrearage Management Plan (AMP). AMP is a 12-month payment plan that forgives 1/12 of your debt after each on-time payment of the current month’s bill and protects you from disconnections. After twelve on-time payments, your debt will be fully forgiven up to a maximum of $8,000. Visit the AMP website today to enroll.
