#CPUC has issued a draft resolution to create a citation program for #IOUs that do not implement #PSPS correctly. The DR is posted at https://docs.cpuc.ca.gov/PublishedDocs/Published/G000/M516/K660/516660886.PDF. #CAEnergy #WildfireMitigation #PGE #SCE #SDGE

Entering hour nine of a power outage. None of us got good sleep. #SDGE says its gonna be another 3 before restored, but this is the fourth time its been moved back.
We’re sitting outside an original pancake house, waiting for it to open.
I am so tired.
Our first full annual true up is coming up next month and this is pretty damn good for having an EV and now a hot tub. Our pricing plan includes a $16 per month fee that slashes the super off peak rate about a third. Non bypassable charges are also included in the total. Our monthly electric charges before installing #Solar would average around $200, and that was without the Polestar or the hot tub. Fuck #SDGE prices (which have gone up at least four times since our install)
June 1st is officially "Summer" according to #SDGE, so our Peak rate is now 81.6c instead of the 'cheaper' 51.1c
#SDGE is having another planned power outage for our neighborhood tonight; the third of the year, not counting two unplanned outages.
They also still have yet to approve our building permit to install solar and batteries, after 8 months.
So, I figured it was finally time…
#SDGE is all
January: $3.45 per therm
February: $1.11 per therm
March: $0.65 per therm
So we paid 5.3x more for natural gas in January than in March. Cool Cool.
My #Emporia #EVSE recently got an app update that included "updates to TOU database". I plugged the car in expecting it to use Excess Solar to charge, and found it was going balls to the wall at 11kW.
Turns out I forgot that our EV plan has Super Off Peak rates from 10 AM to 2 PM during the weekdays in March and April.
Yes, these are our "cheaper" Winter Rates. Thanks #SDGE
#SDG&E: "We suck so hard that our customers a/were forced to get their energy needs elsewhere and they're succeeding and that's why the prices are dropping. Yay us."
Fuck SDG&E.

The basic TOU plan is called DR1 and the #SDGE "Plan Calculator" says this would be the cheapest option for me.
Using data from the past 6 months, the DR1 plan would leave me with a $78 balance. The EV-TOU5 plan would leave me with a $175 credit. This plan comes with a $16 a month charge, so if we subtract this cost, I still have a $79 credit.
Now, the monthly fee is not part of NEM, so I'd end up with a $16 plus tax electric bill every month, but have room to burn more kWh on other things
I can't think of any other way to calculate the cost of electricity using the Green Button Data I can download from #SDGE. The data is a CSV with total net energy every 15 minutes.
I manually and crudely put the per kWh cost for the two plans I'm comparing depending on the time of day and day of week. There are going to be some errors, but it should give me a general idea.
Oh great, #SDGE started the new year with new rates.
On our current plan, the On Peak rate in the summer is now 82 cents per kWh. The Super Off Peak rate went from 10c to 15c. That's a 50% increase! This is the rate we use to charge the car.
I think we've had the most expensive #electricity in the country for a while, and this just solidifies our lead.
