Our Vision:
To achieve in San Diego, southern California and all local communities of a similar mind:
- An active competitive electricity marketplace, where
- Customers of all sizes --homes, businesses, institutions, municipalities and others --
- Participate in community-based, publicly responsive community energy programs and/or providers, and thereby
- Realize energy savings, climate change benefits and jobs through local clean energy resources.
SDED pursues its Vision and Mission through:
- Active education and outreach on "Community Choice Aggregation" (CCA), a powerful tool provided under California law to create locally-responsive energy programs - See "Initiative: Accelerating Community Choice".
- Support for local communities seeking to implement CCA programs;
- Outreach to the business community, especially those most at risk due to continued increases in the rates of utility-provided electricity; and
- Public discussion of the changes underway present and future in electricity markets, policy and regulation. See "Initiative: Advancing the Clean Energy Economy".
- Defending the community's right to choose its electricity suppliers from repeal, infringement or other forms of disruption. See "Initiative: Defending Community Choice".
- Speaking to community groups explaining the benefits of Community Choice.
- Developing videos creating a more compelling experience for understanding the benefits of choice.
- 2018 Video urging San Diegans to contact Mayor Faulconer to support energy choice.
