[quote=CA renter]Just a sidenote, but in case people missed it, SDG&E is trying to get their high-rate customers (like us) to help lobby on their behalf to flatten the tier pricing.
Even though we’re well into Tier 4 in the hot summer months (and often throughout the year), we do not want flat pricing. IMHO, the reason they are trying to flatten the rates is because more and more people are getting solar. SDG&E is probably worried about losing their most profitable customers in the higher tiers, so are trying to push up profit margins on the lower end.
Just a public service announcement for the Piggs. :)[/quote]
SDGE is quite hypocritical with this. Obviously the tiered system creates a drive to conserve as well as a drive to solar. Both of these are what they publicly advocate. By lobbying to get rid of the tiered pricing, it is very clear to us all that ultimately, the environment still takes a backseat to the company’s bottom line.
