Article: Get Rewarded with the Power Saver Rewards Program 

This summer you have the power to make a difference! Join the Power Saver Rewards program and earn a bill credit while helping California’s energy grid. It’s a win-win.  

Here’s how it works — on scorching hot summer days, the demand for electricity increases, putting pressure on the grid. But you can help! If you can reduce your energy use during a Power Saver event between 4 p.m. and 9 p.m., you may receive a bill credit as a reward. The more energy you save, the more you can earn! 

There’s no pressure and only rewards. Participation is completely voluntary, and there’s no penalty if you don’t reduce your energy use. Plus, you can opt-out at any time. It’s a flexible way to make an impact when you can.  

Enroll or learn more about SDG&E’s Power Saver Rewards program by visiting sdge.com/PowerSaveror call SDG&E’s Customer Care Center at 1-800-411-7343.

Article – Energy bill assistance programs: Help is available

Managing energy bills can be challenging in cold weather. But did you know that SDG&E offers several assistance programs to help customers reduce their energy costs and improve energy efficiency?

1. California Alternate Rates for Energy (CARE) Program

The CARE program provides a 30% or more discount on monthly energy bills for eligible households. Eligibility is based on household size and income, or participation in certain public assistance programs. Applying is quick and easy, with no documentation required. Find out if you qualify at sdge.com/CARE.

2. Family Electric Rate Assistance (FERA) Program

FERA offers an 18% discount on electric bills for households with three or more people who exceed CARE income limits but still meet FERA guidelines. This program helps larger families manage their energy expenses more effectively. Learn more at sdge.com/FERA.

3. Energy Savings Assistance (ESA) Program

The ESA program provides no-cost energy-efficient home improvements to income-qualified customers. Services and products may include attic insulation,

energy-efficient refrigerators, weatherstripping and more. The program aims to reduce energy use and help lower bills. Find details at sdge.com/ESA.

4. Medical Baseline Allowance

Customers with certain medical conditions may qualify for additional energy at the lowest rates through the Medical Baseline Allowance program. This helps offset the cost of operating medical equipment or maintaining necessary heating and cooling. Learn more at sdge.com/Medical.

5. Payment Arrangements

If you’re having trouble paying your energy bill, you can request an extension to help avoid interruptions to your service. Flexible payment arrangements are also available to help you pay down past due balances. Learn more at sdge.com/PaymentArrangements.
