Community Power customers receive one bill from SDG&E. Community Power appears as a line item on your SDG&E bill, but it is not an extra charge. It is merely replacing the electric generation charge that you would otherwise pay to SDG&E. You can view a more in-depth breakdown of your energy bill on our Understanding Your Energy Bill page.
With Community Power, you have the power to choose the electricity service that’s right for you.
SDG&E's service is 41% renewable.
PowerBase is our most affordable service plan and is 45% renewable.
PowerOn is our standard service plan and is 53% renewable.
Power100 is our premium service plan and is 100% renewable.
*Power Charge Indifference Adjustment (PCIA) comprises the market costs of SDG&E’s existing procurement portfolio and is calculated annually. Franchise Fees is a surcharge applied to electricity transported over SDG&E systems that are constructed in public streets and highways.
Your average cost may vary. This estimate is based on the average monthly usage of 1,303 kWh and demand of 2.9 kW and the TOU-A rate schedule which is not reflective of all small commercial rates. The rates above reflect SDG&E rates effective June 1, 2025 and Community Power rates effective February 1, 2025.
You can also view our Joint Rate Comparison** created in partnership with SDG&E.
**The Joint Rate Comparison shows estimated costs based on average customer usage by rate class. Individual customer results may vary based on — but not limited to — usage, distribution, location and generation load size.
