Every Spring and Fall residential customers (and qualifying small businesses) will see a line item on their energy bill called the “California Climate Credit.”
The October credit is usually an electricity credit, and the April credit is often for natural gas. This credit is your share of a state program that requires power plants, natural gas distributors, and other large industries that emit greenhouse gasses to buy carbon pollution permits. The program is part of the California Global Warming Solutions Act of 2006 (Assembly Bill 32), which was instituted to reduce California’s greenhouse gas emissions.
The credit is delivered to you by your utility company (in this case PG&E), though the money comes from the statewide cap-and-trade program. Every eligible EBCE customer will receive the same amount ($38.39 in 2023), regardless of energy usage, and the credit is the same amount, regardless of whether the customer is on EBCE service or not. The credit will be applied automatically to your bill.
