PG&E Proposing Another Rate Hike

SAN FRANCISCO –Your electric bill could increase another $6 a month by the end of the year.

PG&E is proposing another rate hike because it’s still recovering from the winter storms between 2022 and 2023.

The utility spent nearly $950 million when the storms knocked out power for millions of Californians.

Rates have jumped 110% in the last decade.

The Public Utilities Commission approved previous hikes to also help with wildfire response and prevention.

The CPUC is expected to vote on Sept. 12.
