NOTICE OF APPLICATION SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA GAS COMPANY’S REQUEST TO INCREASE GAS RATES APPLICATION 25-06-023 WHY AM I RECEIVING THIS NOTICE? On June 27, 2025, Southern California Gas Company (SoCalGas®) filed its bridge funding application for Program Year (PY) 2027 A.25-06-023 with the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) to extend the approved PY 2021-2026 California Alternate Rates for Energy (CARE) and Energy Savings Assistance (ESA) Program budgets for PY 2027. WHY IS SOCALGAS REQUESTING THIS RATE INCREASE? SoCalGas seeks approval to increase customer rates to fund the CARE and ESA Programs for year 2027. These programs assist qualified low-income customers with their energy bills and help customers use energy more efficiently. The CARE program offers eligible SoCalGas customers a 20 percent discount on their monthly natural gas bill. The ESA Program offers energy efficiency home improvement services that are professionally installed at no cost to the customer. SoCalGas seeks funding approval of $20.7 million for 2027 to become effective on January 1, 2027. HOW COULD THIS AFFECT MY MONTHLY GAS BILL? If SoCalGas’s rate request is approved by the CPUC, natural gas rates will increase. The Public Purpose Program (PPP) surcharge is a component of your natural gas rate which funds the CARE and ESA Program. In this application only the PPP Surcharge portion of your rate will increase. Natural gas rates will increase by $20.7 million in 2027, compared to present rates. The average monthly residential bill of a residential non-CARE customer using 36 therms will increase from $74.52 to $74.69 in 2027. Compared to 2025 rates, this represents a 0.2% increase. The following tables show the change in the PPP surcharge for 2027 compared to present rates. Please note however, that CARE customers are not billed for costs associated with the CARE program.
