Now that SCE has forced me to move to TOU-D-4-9PM from the old grandfatherd TOU-D-A that I used to have, my yearly bill will increase significantly. I was scratching my head how to calculate the different rates based on my usage. I use PVOutput to track my system so I plugged in the numbers for each tariff for both winter and summer months and this is what my 2021 would have been with each tariff. The numbers below include daily service charges and baseline credits whenever necessary.
TOU-D-4-9PM: $1203.67
TOU-D-5-8PM: $1020.88
TOU-D-PRIME: $1274.14
So it turns out 5-8 would be the cheapest plan for me based on my usage by ~$200. At first glance I thought PRIME would save me money, but looks can be deceiving I guess.
Mind you that in the old TOU-D-A plan I only paid $300 for the year.
And would they let me be in the tiered plan, I would be paying ~$800 instead. So TOU for solar users works against them. Thank you SCE, Newsom and the CPUC for being a big bag of d|cks! and punishing solar users and increasing my rates by 300% in one fell swoop. Bunch of a$$hole$!
