Family Electric Rate Assistance Program (FERA)

Families whose household income slightly exceeds the low-income energy program allowances will qualify to receive FERA discounts, which bills some of their electricity usage at a lower rate. FERA is available for customers of Southern California Edison, San Diego Gas and Electric Company, and Pacific Gas and Electric Company. Call your electric utility if your family qualifies.   Following are the income limits in effect from June 1, 2009 to May 31, 2010:  

 

Household Size Household Income From - To
