The memorandum outlines a recommendation for the San José City Council to adopt a resolution authorizing the Energy Department to issue bill credits to San José Clean Energy (SJCE) customers totaling up to $25,000,000. This decision is based on lower-than-expected energy market prices in 2025, which resulted in substantial operating reserves for SJCE. The proposed bill credits aim to provide financial relief to customers before an anticipated increase in the Power Charge Indifference Adjustment (PCIA) starting January 1, 2026. Residential customers would receive a flat credit of $40, while non-residential customers would receive credits based on their usage. The credits are set to be applied automatically to January 2026 bills, funded by SJCE's Rate Stabilization Reserve.

SUMMARY AND OUTCOME In 2025, energy market prices were lower than forecasted due in part to a mild summer, resulting in San José Clean Energy (SJCE) accumulating substantial operating reserves.

To ease the transition for customers and return excess reserves in a timely and equitable manner, staff recommends issuing bill credits totaling approximately $25,000,000. Under the proposal, all SJCE customers—excluding net energy metering customers who are net energy generators over the course of 12 months—would receive a bill credit. Residential customers will...
