Rates Designed with You in Mind

CleanPowerSF offers various rate options to meet our customers’ energy use and needs.

  • What is Time-of-Use?
    Most electricity ratepayers in California pay higher rates during the peak hours of 4-9pm (this is called a Time of Use Rate). During that time window, energy demand is high and there’s less wind and solar power available. Most CleanPowerSF residential customers are currently on a Time of Use Rate (E-TOU-C) for their service.

  • If you live in San Francisco, your electric service is automatically enrolled in CleanPowerSF’s Green service. This rate provides you with at least 50% renewable energy from sources like wind and solar.

  • SuperGreen is our 100% renewable service option. SuperGreen costs less than $3 more per month for the average residential customers. Currently our SuperGreen rate is cheaper than PG&E’s default generation service.

  • Our new rate to promote home electrification adjusts the usage tier costs for using more electricity. To be eligible for this rate, a customer must have an Electric Vehicle (EV), battery storage, or an electric heat pump.

  • Do you own an electric vehicle and charge your car at home? You may be interested in our EV rate.

  • Our Net Energy Metering or NEM rate allows customers with solar panels to receive credits on their bill when they generate more energy than they need.

Discount Rates

  • A new CleanPowerSF program, SuperGreen Saver offers qualifying customers a 20% discount on their electricity bill and 100% renewable energy every month. Learn more: https://www.cleanpowersf.org/supergreensaver

  • CARE and FERA are state programs administered by PG&E that provide monthly bill discounts to income-eligible residents. As a CleanPowerSF customer, you submit your application through PG&E, but the discount is applied to both the PG&E and CleanPowerSF portion of the bill. The CARE discount is applied equally to both CleanPowerSF customers and PG&E bundled service customers. Learn more and see if you qualify: www.cleanpowersf.org/loweryourbill

How We Compare

CleanPowerSF continues to offer affordable and predictable rates for your generation service.

This compares electricity costs for an average residential customer in the CleanPowerSF/PG&E service area with an average monthly usage of 250 kWh. This is based on an E-TOUC rate schedule for CleanPowerSF’s published rates as of July 2024 and PG&E’s published rates as of July 2024. Please note that due to rounding, the sum of each individual component may not exactly match the values in the Average Total Cost Per Month rows.

*Additional PG&E Fees refer to the Power Charge Indifference Amount (PCIA) and the Franchise Fee Surcharge (FFS). For more details on your bill, view our Residential Understanding Your Bill or NEM Understanding Your Bill.
