你的能源账单可以减免30%或更多
For many, meeting everyday needs isn’t easy. And during this challenging time, it may be even more difficult to pay your bills. For those customers, 我们提供几种援助计划, like CARE and FERA, that provide monthly discounts on your energy bill. 了解更多关于这些项目的信息.
CARE Program Overview
The California Alternate Rates for Energy (CARE) program can provide you with a discount on your monthly energy bill (electricity and gas).
If you’re currently receiving public assistance, 或者你最近丢了工作, 你可能有资格享受这个折扣. Even if you are receiving unemployment benefits, your household income as of today may qualify you to receive 30% or more off your bill. See if you qualify.
It’s quick and easy to apply online, no documentation is needed. 另外，你的信息是保密的. We will not share any of your personal information with third parties.
Once approved for the program, you’ll receive your discount for two years. After two years, you’ll have to renew your application to make sure you still qualify. For families on a fixed income, renewal is every four years.
Who Qualifies?
获得CARE折扣, you must already participate in certain public assistance programs or meet the income guidelines. If you do not qualify for the CARE program, we will automatically check to see if you qualify for FERA, which provides an 18% monthly discount on electric use for families of three or more.
