NOTICE OF PACIFIC GAS AND ELECTRIC COMPANY’S RATE INCREASE REQUEST FOR  ITS ENERGY EFFICIENCY 2028 BUSINESS AND PORTFOLIO PLAN APPLICATION TO  THE CALIFORNIA PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION (CPUC) A.26-03-017 
WHAT IS BEING REQUESTED? PG&E is requesting a revenue increase of approximately $200 million for a total of $1.46 billion  in revenue for energy efficiency programs for the 2028–2031 period. That is in comparison to  the current authorized amount of $1.26 billion for the current 2024–2027 period. The request  would continue funding energy efficiency (EE) programs that are designed to lower overall energy  costs, reduce energy bills for participating customers, and improve the high-efficiency products.  The programs would also provide financial incentives to help with upfront costs of energy-saving  programs along with education and training for customers and their contractors. Of the $1.46B  revenue requested, PG&E’s EE Portfolio budget is $909.7 million, which is $15.5 million lower  than the current cycle’s authorized amount. The remaining $551.6M is attributed to Regional  Energy Networks and Community Choice Aggregator EE Portfolios and other fiscal agent activities  directed by the CPUC which is $214.3 million higher than the current cycle’s authorized amount  for these activities outside of PG&E’s EE programs.  
ESTIMATED INCREASE IN ELECTRIC AND GAS RATES     If approved, residential electric and gas rates for Energy Efficiency programs will increase overall  from 2028 through 2031 compared to current rates. This increase will be phased in over the  program years. Actual changes in rates may vary by year. Detailed rate information will be sent  directly to customers in a bill insert in April 2026.  
HOW WOULD THIS IMPACT THE TYPICAL RESIDENTIAL CUSTOMER?     If the request is approved, a typical residential electric customer using 500 kWh per month would  see a bill increase of approximately $0.31 per month. A typical residential gas customer using  31 therms would see a bill increase of approximately $0.13 per month. Actual impacts will vary  depending on usage and are subject to CPUC regulatory approval.
