Any comments on using SJCE vs PG&E? I am having 8.16 kW system installed right now and I may have a bit of surplus production.
San Jose Clean Energy has very confusing plans, where they will true-up in a different month than PG&E. That is two true-ups a year. Since you lose at each true-up, that does not seem like a good deal for consumers. Also going back to PGE triggers true-up. Rate change also triggers true-up at PGE at least. SJCE would be paying 25% more for the surplus, but it is still very low amount.
SJCE does not seem to have clear benefits. It is at most 1% cheaper than PG&E and only has 4% more renewable in the mix.
May be they will have better rebates in the future, e.g. they have something about water heater right now, but those are apparently very noisy and expensive to install.
