UCAN Joins Fight Against Utility's Treatment of Customers

KUDOS It is a joy to be able to actually leave comments, ... and read your replies! Sempra is out for $EMPRA and until everyone in CA understands that and demands Political change ... We are all doomed to ever more rate increases... Now even our Water is being "sold" as a vanishing ... resource, which bye the way is also going up in cost!— February 23, 2012 4:52 p.m.

It is starting to look like we are being told that out utility really supports going green , yet in reality they are doing it in such a manner that is really just tokenism, while the Utility just further cements it's strangle hold on all it's rate payers while demanding ever more money for energy! In reality they should change their name to $DG&E...— February 23, 2012 10:28 a.m.

Add to the colluding all the connected people that support the Leaders that are supposed to appoint or elect and monitor those very same regulators... In short it is a vicious cycle: A. The well connected working to support "their" Candidates... B. Candidates, now Leaders passing "helpful" policies ... (think political payback) those that elected them. C. Those that want access to Leaders must "play their game"...— February 20, 2012 3:49 p.m.

Yes, I agree and we can see signs of very same thing at City Hall and even the State and Federal level and in every major Project paid for with City, State or Federal money! The Political "fix" is in and until there are MAJOR changes in the way our Leaders are chosen and how they collect donations, we will see much more of the same thing, especially since the SCOTUS changed one man one vote to one dollar one vote!— February 20, 2012 3:42 p.m.

How many reading this article are saying to themselves, Enough is Enough? Why is it that SDG&E Shareholders can continue to make huge profits but rate payers are supposed to accept all "loses" by SDG&E? What is wrong with that picture? Do you hear the "R-R-R-R-Rip Off" sound? Our elected Leaders need to start putting the Public Good ahead of what is good for SDG&E shareholders of these BIG Donors that donate to these same Politicos that provide SDG&E Oversight! Until that happens, ALL rate holders will continue to get "Shorted" by SDG&E... Please write Governor Brown and urge him to revamp the California Public Utilities Commission: (866) 849-8390, so we will not continue to get ripped off by our own Public Utility which is being "run" like the monopoly it is... + Here is a link to lodge CPUC complaints: http://www.cpuc.ca.gov/PUC/CEC/e_complaint/a_util…— February 20, 2012 10:52 a.m.

Great news for everyone that is not a shareholder in SDG&E! + How do we increase Solar usage nation wide in the shortest amount of time: Or What Is Holding America Back? http://www.grist.org/solar-power/2011-08-08-cleve… The Utilities want to maximize the profits for the shareholders and so they donate to Candidates to get them to support traditional Energy Production, which does not include anything but a token amount of Solar... We are being "forced" to accept their Energy "mix", instead of using our own and being fairly paid for the Energy we produce and push INTO the grid!! When The Energy Utilities pay each of us for the energy we put into the grid, at the same rate that the Utility charges for that same energy someone else uses at that exact time, then you will see Solar being installed Nation wide! Because Solar is generated during the daytime, it is the most valuable since the Utilities charge the most for daytime usage (where they have SMART metering)! Everyone pays an additional amount to support the infrastructure (The Grid) so that when the Energy Utilities begin to pay the same as what they charge (no pun intended), then it will make adding Solar panels a no brainer, since the payback period will be much shorter. Another benefit for all of us is that during a power outage, all the small solar panel producers can help to keep power flowing which will be a huge benefit during such times as hurricane, tornadoes and flooding!— February 20, 2012 10:34 a.m.

The NRC gave the Nuclear Industry a "PASS" on the tube wear issue before on San Onofre and other reactors around the Country http://wp.me/p21p6a-77L BUT NOW They are realizing that they have a much bigger problem than they first "imagined"; metal erosion cannot be tolerated when the radioactive leakage is not only high in temperature but also high in amount of radiation! Would you use a dangerous leaking pressure pot day after day, ... or would you be smart and replace it with something safer? + Why nuclear is on the way out: 1. Radiation is dangerous to man 2. Expensive to build compared to Competitive Power Sources. 3. Creates long lasting radioactive waste 4. Risky because Nature can destroy any land based nuclear reactor, … Any place anytime 24/7/365! 5. No meaningful insurance for MAJOR radioactive damages to property or people!— February 18, 2012 12:20 p.m.
