At San Diego Community Power, we want to empower our customers to make choices about their energy. Explore our billing and rates resources and find the service option, rate schedule or bill assistance program that’s right for you.
Community Power offers four different service plans: PowerBase, PowerOn, Power100 and, for commercial customers, our Green-e® certified Power100 Green+.
Most customers* are automatically enrolled in our standard PowerOn service, but whether you want to invest in 100% renewable energy, or you’re looking to lower your energy costs, you can change your service plan at any time.
*Los clientes de las ciudades de San Diego, Chula Vista, Imperial Beach, La Mesa y National City, así como las zonas no incorporadas del condado de San Diego, se inscriben automáticamente en el PowerOn. La ciudad de Encinitas votó a favor de inscribir automáticamente a los clientes dentro de los límites de su ciudad en el Power100.
You also have the option to opt out of our service altogether and return to SDG&E’s electric generation service — but before you do, you should know that Community Power offers service plans that cost less than SDG&E’s.
Community Power is no es un cargo nuevo o adicional. Nos limitamos a sustituir la tasa de generación eléctrica que de otro modo pagaría a SDG&E.
Si anteriormente se dio de baja del servicio Community Power y desea volver a inscribirse, ¡estaremos encantados de recibirle de nuevo!
Puede volver a inscribirse aquí mismo, en nuestra página web. Sólo asegúrese de tener a mano una copia de su factura SDG&E, ya que necesitará su número de cuenta SDG&E.
Community Power purchases electricity from renewable sources on behalf of our customers. SDG&E delivers that electricity to you and maintains the power lines.
Community Power customers receive one bill from SDG&E. Community Power appears as a line item on your SDG&E bill, but we are not an extra charge. We are merely replacing the electric generation charge that you would otherwise pay to SDG&E.
As a not-for-profit public agency, Community Power does not have shareholders. Our rates are set by our Board of Directors, which consists of one elected official from each of the seven communities that we serve.
Rate schedules determine how you are charged for the electricity that you use. They vary slightly depending on which Community Power service plan you are on and whether you are a residential or commercial customer.
Current solar customers are either enrolled in Net Energy Metering (NEM) or Solar Billing Plan (SBP), depending on when you received Permission to Operate (PTO).
If you applied for interconnection of an eligible renewable energy self-generation system, such as solar or wind, on or after April 15, 2023, you are a Solar Billing Plan (also known as Net Billing Tariff, or NEM 3.0) customer.
If you installed an eligible renewable energy self-generation system, such as solar or wind, before April 15, 2023, you are a Net Energy Metering customer.
Existing NEM 1.0 and NEM 2.0 customers will remain on NEM until the completion of their legacy period, or 20 years from the time their system was connected to the electric grid, after which they will be transitioned to SBP. Existing NEM customers will also be transitioned to SBP if they increase the capacity of their generation system by more than 10% or 1 kW, or if they choose to switch to SBP.
