On November 21, 2024, PG&E filed its 2024 WMCE application with the CPUC. The application requests recovery of $595.5 million in costs between 2018 and 2023 for work related to wildfire mitigation, catastrophic event response and other customer support activities. PG&E is proposing to begin recovering expenses over a 1-year period and capital expenditures over a 4-year period, starting September 1, 2026. This notice is to inform you about the proposed increases and how they might impact your bill. WHY IS PG&E REQUESTING THIS RATE INCREASE? Costs in this application include wildfire mitigation activities, including work to restore and rebuild Butte County energy infrastructure. The application also requests cost recovery for customer care initiatives, such as billing protections during the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. HOW COULD THIS AFFECT MY MONTHLY ELECTRIC RATES? Many customers receive bundled electric service from PG&E, meaning they receive electric generation, transmission and distribution services. Detailed rate information will be sent directly to customers in a bill insert in December 2024. In the first period, the bill for a typical residential customer using 500 kWh per month would increase from $212.45 to $213.85, or 0.7% compared to current bills. In the second period, the bill for a typical residential customer would increase $1.67, or 0.8% compared to current bills. In the third period, the bill for a typical residential customer would increase $0.26, or 0.1% compared to current bills. Direct Access (DA) and Community Choice Aggregation (CCA) customers receive electric transmission and distribution services and select Commission-ordered services from PG&E. If this application is approved, on average, rates for services provided by PG&E to these customers would increase by 1.1% compared to current rates in the first period, 1.2% compared to current rates in the second period and 0.2% compared to current rates in the third period. DA providers and CCAS set their own generation rates. Check with your DA provider or CCA to learn how this would impact your overall bill. Another category of nonbundled customers is other Departing Load. These customers do not receive electric generation, transmission or distribution services from PG&E. However, these customers are required to pay certain charges by law or CPUC decision. On average, these customers would see an increase of 0.0% compared to current rates in the first period, 0.0% compared to current rates in the second period, and 0.0% compared to current rates in the third period. Actual impacts will vary depending on usage and are subject to CPUC regulatory approval. HOW COULD THIS AFFECT MY MONTHLY GAS RATES? Bundled gas customers receive transmission, distribution and procurement services from PG&E. Detailed rate information will be sent directly to customers in a bill insert in December 2024. PG&E is proposing to recover gas expense costs over a 1-year period and capital expenditures over a 4-year period, starting September 1, 2026. If this application is approved, in Period 1, based on rates currently in effect, the bill for a typical non-care residential customer averaging 31 therms per month would increase from $75.25 to $76.25, or 1.3%. In Period 2, the bill for a typical non-care residential customer would increase $1.28, or 1.7% compared to current bills. In Period 3, the bill for a typical non-care residential customer would increase $0.28, or 0.4% compared to current bills. Note Period 3 rates and bill impacts are based on the 2027 revenue requirement, which is relatively flat to the 2028-2030 revenue requirements. Actual impacts will vary depending on usage and are subject to CPUC regulatory approval. HOW DOES THE REST OF THIS PROCESS WORK? This application will be assigned to a CPUC Administrative Law Judge who will consider proposals and evidence presented during the formal hearing process. The Administrative Law Judge will issue a proposed decision that may adopt PG&E's application, modify it or deny it. Any CPUC Commissioner may sponsor an alternate decision with a different outcome. The proposed decision, and any alternate decisions, will be discussed and voted upon by the CPUC Commissioners at a public CPUC Voting Meeting. Parties to the proceeding may review PG&E's application, including the Public Advocates Office. The Public Advocates Office is an independent consumer advocate within the CPUC that represents customers to obtain the lowest possible rate for service consistent with reliable and safe service levels.
