YOUR SAVINGS LAB
Small changes, worked out.
Use your bill’s prices to explore what a practical change could save.
No peak/off-peak pricing on this bill
What could using less electricity save?
Your recognized Riverside bill uses energy blocks: the first 15,000 kWh at $0.1664/kWh, then $0.2541/kWh. These are the published 2026 Schedule A flat-rate energy blocks. Confirm your assigned schedule with Riverside. Moving the same use to another hour does not change these energy charges.
Riverside official rate schedules · Business efficiency programs. Reviewed October 7, 2026. This scenario uses the recognized bill’s 2026 energy prices, not a live rate lookup.
Energy-only estimate. Fixed charges, demand charges and taxes are separate. Actual savings depend on what you change.
What if I use electricity at cheaper times?
Same electricity
A cheaper time
Possible savings
See what you could save by running suitable appliances during cheaper hours. This uses the electricity amount and prices you entered above. You do not need a battery.
Example: if you entered 100 kWh above, choosing “Half of it” moves 50 kWh to cheaper hours. Choose what feels practical; this is your assumption, not a prediction.
Advanced model (optional)
These settings can further reduce the amount you chose above. Leave this model off for the simple estimate.
Example: 4 hours with a drop of 0.4 per hour moves about half of the amount you selected, before any price-response adjustment.
Advanced: response to the price difference
This exploratory model uses response = 1 − (cheaper price ÷ current price)ε. It has not been fitted to your behavior. A bill alone cannot measure elasticity.

How this estimate works
The simple estimate multiplies the electricity amount by your chosen percentage and the difference between the two prices. Total electricity use stays the same.
Shiftable power q(t) = (X ÷ T) × chosen fraction × response × e−λt. Saving = ∫₀ᵀ q(t) × (current price − cheaper price) dt. X is flexible kWh; T is hours; λ is decay per hour.
With the advanced model off, this becomes X × your chosen fraction × the price difference. Unmoved energy remains in its original period. Prices are assumed constant within the selected periods; taxes, demand charges, credits and changing future tariffs are excluded.
Lower your demand peak
Business bills may charge for the most power used at once. Explore one demand charge at a time.
How this estimate works
Possible saving = reduction in billed kW × this charge's price per kW. It is a scenario for one billing period, not a guaranteed saving or a full bill forecast. Energy charges, taxes and other demand charges are separate. Some charges use earlier peaks or minimum amounts, so lowering today's peak may not lower those charges.

Estimate the CO₂ avoided from using less electricity. Enter a reduction in total use, not use moved to another hour.
Method, official sources & limitations
Formula: avoided meter kWh × EPA non-baseload CO₂ rate (lb/MWh) × 0.45359237 kg/lb ÷ 1,000 ÷ (1 − grid loss fraction). Uses eGRID2023 revision 2, Summary Table 1. Non-baseload rates approximate displaced generation from reduced use. This is different from an average electricity-use carbon footprint.
CAMX: 958.3 lb CO₂/MWh; NWPP: 1,613.4; AZNM: 1,175.1, each with 4.1% grid losses. U.S. fallback: 1,372.5 with 4.2% losses. Data year is 2023, not a measured 2026 emissions rate. Sources checked October 6, 2026.
EPA factors: Table 1 · Dataset and revision dates · EPA calculation methodology
Bill discounts do not by themselves avoid electricity. Moving the same kWh to off-peak hours, reducing demand kW without reducing kWh, switching suppliers, and battery/solar scenarios are not assigned carbon savings by this calculator. An ordinary before/after bill difference can reflect weather, occupancy, business activity, billing days or solar exports; do not count it automatically as efficiency savings. Do not enter kW, dollars, solar exports or the entire bill's consumption as avoided kWh. Protect medical equipment and essential operations.

Understand your energy and demand charges
- A-1 Standard Service has no separate off-peak price. Focus on reducing unnecessary electricity consumption. The facilities charge and matching kW adjustments may depend on earlier demand peaks.
- Move suitable flexible loads from High Peak or Low Peak to Base hours on your exact schedule. Check LADWP's rating periods; do not assume SCE's hours apply. The calculator uses energy components, not demand-inclusive period subtotals.
- Reduce simultaneous equipment operation during demand peaks. Check interval data and keep refrigeration, ventilation, medical and other essential loads safe. kW demand savings require a lower measured billing peak, not just fewer kWh.
- For A-3, the facilities charge uses the highest demand in the last 12 months, with a 30 kW minimum. A lower peak this month may not reduce facilities charges immediately. ESA, RCA and IRCA per kW need separate treatment.
- Ask about Commercial Direct Install: qualifying LADWP non-residential customers in good standing with average monthly demand of 250 kW or less may receive no-cost efficiency upgrades. One scanned bill cannot establish average demand or final eligibility. Leased premises require landlord permission. Call Willdan at 877-714-1254 for an assessment.
- For account questions or payment arrangements, use LADWP's commercial number printed on your bill: 800-499-8840. A past-due amount is not new electricity consumption.

About this provider directory
Official source links for all 84 named provider entries currently in this app, including municipal utilities, cooperatives and generation providers. Directory links do not establish verified program coverage, service at your address or an exhaustive current statewide inventory. Some entries are public agencies or proposed services rather than a confirmed retail electricity option. Use the provider printed on your bill.
The inventory begins with the CEC load-serving entity directory, whose downloadable inventory is labelled 2022. Direct-access providers need the separate CPUC registered electric-service-provider list. Newly added or changed providers require further reconciliation.
Six previously missing entity links were researched October 7, 2026. All provider source links were attempted again October 17, 2026; see the source-check report above. Program eligibility review dates remain separate from link checks.

Business programs & sources
Official commercial resources reviewed October 4, 2026. These are published rules and program leads, not eligibility approvals. Residential income discounts are excluded. Provider listing alone does not mean its programs have been fully verified.
2026 small-business Climate Credit
Small-business electric Climate Credits normally arrive in April and October. Eligible accounts use general-service or agricultural rates and exceed 20 kW maximum demand in no more than 3 months of the previous 12 months (Liberty: previous calendar year). The business must have fewer than 100 individually eligible accounts, including affiliated entities, counted separately in each investor-owned utility territory. Applies to PG&E, SCE, SDG&E, Pacific Power, Liberty and Bear Valley delivery territories, including CCA/energy-service-provider customers. Household income is not this test. Your utility verifies demand history and account aggregation; a single scanned bill cannot establish eligibility. Residential credit amounts do not establish the business amount.

Where the data comes from
The California Energy Commission roster defines this electricity-provider inventory. CPUC covers investor-owned utility tariff regulation; municipal utilities publish locally approved rates. An indexed page is not a verified numerical schedule, and a provider may offer many schedules and historical versions.
OpenEI's automated API requires a free key. This version uses curated public sources; a live OpenEI feed is not connected. Private electricity contracts, gas and water schedules are outside this electricity directory.
How your savings plan works
First, check household discounts or business programs. Next, use the energy prices on your bill to explore a change in when you use electricity. Then record your next step and any credits you actually receive.
You update the tracker yourself. The app does not submit applications, monitor your utility account or guarantee a credit. Sources and review dates help you check each recommendation.
