The program is part of the state's efforts to fight climate change. Billing cycles vary for customers, so not every ratepayer will see the credit at the same time, according to SDG&E.
"We appreciate working collaboratively with the CPUC to distribute the Climate Credit and offer some financial relief to our customers," Dana Golan, SDG&E vice president of customer services, said in a statement."Anyone struggling to pay their bill is encouraged to reach out to us. We're here to help connect them with financial assistance programs."
The California Climate Credit comes from the state's cap-and-trade program, which requires power plants, fuel providers, and large industrial facilities that emit greenhouse gases to buy carbon pollution permits. There is no action required to receive the credit. All electricity customers, including community choice aggregation customers, will automatically receive the credit in their upcoming billing cycle.
