REAL ESTATE: Smart Meter Opt-Out proceedings : Real Estate

Posted on | December 11, 2012 | Comments

Are you a homeowner who got a SmartMeter from Southern California Edison, feel as if you were strong armed into it, and now want to a say in the SCE?s proposed ?Opt-Out? program?

If so, you may want to mark Dec. 17 on your holiday calendar.

The California Public Utilities Commission is taking public comments from electric utility customers beginning 6 p.m. Dec. 17 in the Carmel Room Auditorium of the Junipero Serra State Office Building, 320 W. 4th St., Los Angeles.

The comments will address the Phase 2 issues, like whether:

Testimony will also be taken on the proposed fee system. Proposed opt-out fees range from $78 to $98 for the initial fee; and $19 to $24 on a monthly basis.

The SCE, which has estimated that the opt-out program will require $21 million in revenue from 2012 to 2014, has asked the California Public Utilities Commission for the nod to recover 100 percent of those costs from residential customers who opt-out.

A wireless SmartMeter is a digital electric or gas meter that transmits customer usage data through radio transmission. Customers who opt-out revert back to the analog-meter system.

To learn more, you can read the ?SCE Smart Meter Opt-Out Cost Estimates & Cost Recovery Proposal? on the SCE website; search A.11-03-014.

You can also file written comments to the Public Utility Commission at Public.Advisor@cpuc.ca.gov under the file number, A.11-03-014.
