SCE is Working to Lower Your Energy Bills 

SCE is focused on reducing the costs of running our business to create more meaningful savings for customers. 

We’re using improved processes and new technology for operations like overhead power line inspections and vegetation management. This has helped avoid tens of millions of dollars in costs that would otherwise be passed on to customers.

Where Your Money Goes 

The California Public Utilities Commission must approve all rates charged by investor-owned utilities like SCE. Rates are set through a transparent process of proceedings with the commission that includes public input and participation. 

To keep rates affordable and fair, we constantly balance the need to modernize our infrastructure to support reliability with the need to meet state policy requirements regarding issues such as renewable energy. We do that by working with local, state and federal officials on an ongoing basis, while keeping you informed.
