How to Save 50% on SDG&E Bills
San Diego's temperate climate lets you lean on off-peak hours more than most cities. SDG&E offers several TOU schedules, and choosing the right one while pre-cooling with a smart thermostat at night can cut your bill substantially. Our members share the app settings and routines that maximize the cheap windows.
SDG&E is one of the best markets for pairing rooftop solar with home batteries. Pairing exports through net metering with a battery that charges cheaply and powers your home at peak can slash costs dramatically. Our group tracks the current solar credits, export rates, and the battery setups that pay off fastest in the region.
SDG&E's CARE program discounts qualifying low-income households up to 35%, with FERA helping larger families. EV customers can get a separate time-of-use rate with overnight charging at bargain prices, plus charger rebates. Stacking these discounts and rebates routinely pushes total savings toward half.
