California PG&E Customers to Receive Climate Credits on April Bills
In a significant move to support environmental initiatives, millions of Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) customers in California are set to receive an average credit of $137 on their April utility bills. This initiative, part of the state's broader climate program, aims to alleviate financial burdens while promoting sustainable energy practices.
The California Climate Credit, funded through the state's cap-and-trade program, is designed to help reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Governor Gavin Newsom emphasized the dual benefit of the program, stating, "This credit not only helps Californians manage their utility costs but also underscores our commitment to combating climate change."
Eligible PG&E residential customers will see the credit automatically applied to their April bills, with no action required on their part. This financial relief comes at a crucial time as the state continues to navigate economic challenges and push forward with its green energy agenda.
