Community Power 代表我们的客户从可再生能源购买电力。SDG&E 负责将电力输送给您并维护电力线路。 Learn more about how it works.
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 provides 41% renewable energy.
PowerBase is our most affordable service plan and provides 45% renewable energy.
PowerOn is our standard service plan and provides 53% renewable energy.
Power100 is our premium service plan and provides 100% renewable energy.
*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 341 kWh and the TOUDR1 rate schedule which is not reflective of all residential 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.

Energy bills can be complicated — let’s walk through your bill.
Rate schedules determine how you are charged for the electricity you use. Please note that any changes to your rate schedule must be made through My Energy Center or by calling SDG&E at 800-411-7343.
With time of use rate schedules, when you use energy is just as important as how much you use. Energy is more expensive during peak demand hours, between 4 p.m. and 9 p.m. Customers on this rate schedule can save by shifting energy usage outside of peak demand hours.
Electric vehicle (EV) rate schedules are similar to time of use rate schedules, but offer additional savings for customers who charge their EVs at home. You can compare different EV rate schedules on SDG&E的网站.
The electric home rate schedule is similar to time of use rate schedules, but offers additional savings for customers who can program their electric vehicle (EV) charger, battery storage or electric heat pump to run during “super off-peak hours,” often late at night or early in the morning when the demand for energy is low.
EV owners with battery storage and/or an electric heat pump that can be programmed to run during super-off-peak hours often save more on the electric home rate schedule than on an electric vehicle rate schedule.
Customers who have rooftop solar under Net Energy Metering (NEM) can choose from several different rate schedules, but the DR-SES time of use rate schedule is unique to NEM customers.
Newer solar customers on the Solar Billing Plan are enrolled in the EV-TOU-5 rate schedule.
