SDG&E EV Charging Rates & Electricity Plans

SDG&E EV-TOU-5 has three time periods. CalcuRiver encodes the non-CCA generation-and-delivery prices shown by SDG&E, because CCA customers have separate generation charges.

Whole-bill integration: no utility plan on this page is currently safe for a monthly bill estimate with the modeled inputs. TOU/EV-specific plans stay out of the bill calculator until usage-by-time allocation is available.

Eligibility / billing boundary: Prices encoded are SDG&E non-CCA generation + delivery and are rounded for illustration. CCA customers have different generation charges; the monthly Base Services Charge is not allocated to a charging session or appliance run.

The state average is a benchmark, not a substitute for this tariff. A low or high encoded period is a marginal energy price and should not be interpreted as a complete monthly bill unless the page explicitly says whole-bill modeling is supported.
