Solar Customers Furious With Utility Over Proposed Rate Change

Posted on October 10, 2011 | Leave a comment

Homeowners who sank thousands of dollars into solar power systems are hopping mad at San Diego Gas & Electric Co.’s proposal to charge them for using the electrical grid.

On Monday, SDG&E filed a request to the California Public Utilities Commission that would allow it to separate how much it charges customers for electricity from how much it charges to transport that electricity. For traditional customers, the change would have little impact on their total bill. But solar customers would end up paying an average of $11 extra per month, according to utility spokeswoman Stephanie Donovan.
