Lifeline rates keep California utility bills lower
The California Public Utilities Commission reports lifeline rates shield residential customers from large rate hikes after a year of substantial increases. A survey ranked San Francisco Los Angeles and San Diego among cities with the lowest average utility bills, with San Francisco at 26.55 dollars for typical gas electric and phone costs. Lifeline quantities were set last July to meet basic needs, and non lifeline charges rose up to 79.2 percent for gas and 47.7 percent for electric during the past year.
