The number one priority for Pioneer Community Energy in El Dorado County is offering competitive and stable electricity generation rates for your home, and we are delivering. El Dorado County residential customers will save 10% or more over PG&E on electricity generation.
Pioneer has developed a tool to assist most of our customers in understanding their monthly and annual savings by choosing Pioneer. All of our residential customers on an E1 rate will find that this calculator can quickly show their energy savings. This calculator reflects only E1 rates, so please reach out if you canât find your rate plan or are on a different rate plan.
This calculator is for the vintage year 2021. Customers with a 2021 Power Charge Indifference Adjustment (PCIA), also called an âExit Fee,â can quickly see the difference in savings between PG&E and Pioneer Community Energy rates. To verify your vintage year, please look at your bill. If your vintage year is different or you canât find your vintage year, please contact Pioneer for an individualized rate analysis.
Simply enter your monthly kWh usage (from your bill) into our rate calculator below and compare PG&E generation costs versus the Pioneer generation rate PLUS the appropriate PCIA. The savings youâll achieve by choosing Pioneer will be obvious. You can also calculate savings yourself using the manual savings calculator.
If you have a more nuanced rate structure, call or email Pioneer for assistance instead of using the calculator.
Enter your information in our Rates Comparison Calculator to see how much you could save with Pioneer Community Energy.Â
