Energy Savings and Incentives with PG&E Chad Stout Account Manager
Electric Rates: Do you have options? AG-4 For customers with moderate annual operating hours (generally 500 to 1,200). Additional savings are possible if you can minimize electricity use on summer weekdays between noon and 6 p.m. Customers whose service has a single motor load of at least 35 hp or multiple motor load of at least 15 hp may save even more on AG-4C if they can minimize usage on summer and winter weekdays from 8:30 a.m. through 9:30 p.m. AG-5 For customers with high annual operating hours. Additional savings are possible if you can minimize electricity use on summer weekdays between noon and 6 p.m. Customers whose service has a single motor load of at least 35 hp or multiple motor load of at least 15 hp may save even more on AG-5C if they can minimize usage on summer and winter weekdays from 8:30 a.m. through 9:30 p.m.

Speaking of Rates The CPUC oversees and approves the energy efficiency programs funded by charges established in: Public Utilities Code Section 381 (Public Goods Charge): Created by Assembly Bill (AB) 1890 in September 1996 Established a Public Goods Charge (PGC) that consumers pay on electricity consumption for cost-effective energy efficiency, renewable technologies, and public interest research In September 2000, AB 995 became law, extending the electric PGC through January 1, 2012 Public Utilities Code Section 399.15 (b)/379.5: Created by AB 970 in September 2000 for expanded energy efficiency programs plus new load control and distributed generation initiatives Expanded appliance, lighting, and HVAC rebates, appliance recycling, and oil and gas efficiency programs
What does the Public Purpose Fund mean to you? AG4 Rate: Average of $0.01380 per kwh Ag5 Rate: Average of $0.01098 per kwh The Ag sector accounts for 6% of the electricity usage and 5% of gas usage in California. From 2010 to 2012, these customers received over $28 million in incentives. More than $70 million were paid to commercial customers. So take advantage of the incentive programs available!!
