Accepting Application for CAGs – 2019

by

The January 31st deadline to choose your electric rates through the Clean Power Alliance (CPA) is quickly approaching.

CPA offers three options for your electricity:

  • 36 percent (“lean” power): 1 percent savings compared to Edison base rates.

  • 50 percent (“clean” power): equal to Edison base rates.

  • 100 percent (“green” power): 9 percent higher than Edison base rates.

Oxnard residents will be automatically enrolled in the 100 percent green power option on February 1st if an alternative option has not been selected.

How do I make my selection?

  • If you wish to enroll in 100 green power option then no action is required.

To see what your bill could look like with different CPA and Southern California Edison (SCE) service offerings use the calculator tool below:

2019 Brings New Green Energy Program and More Flexibility

You will soon be able to choose greener energy without changing your provider, through the City’s participation in the Clean Power Alliance (CPA). It’s one way our region is working to provide more clean power options for residents and businesses.

How does it work?

The CPA delivers renewable energy through the City’s existing provider, Southern California Edison. You can control your percentage of green energy, or go with 100% for the greatest environmental benefit.

Do I have to take any action?

  1. Do nothing, and 100% of your energy will come from renewable sources. This is best for the environment and may increase your electrical bill about 7-9%.
  2. Select the 50% clean option and your bill should remain about the same.
  3. Select the 36% clean option for a 1-2% decrease in your bill.

Will my bill look different?

  • The CPA generates renewable energy and delivers it through your existing provider, which for Oxnard is Southern California Edison.
  • Southern California Edison (SCE) will continue to deliver power, send you an SCE bill, and resolve any electrical service issues.
  • You will see a new line item on your bill for CPA, this represents the cost to generate clean energy and replaces an SCE fee.

How do I make my selection?

  • Those selecting the Green option don’t need to take any action. You will automatically switch to 100% renewable sources in February of 2019.
  • If you want to select another option, or change your preference, visit The CPA website for instructions.

Where can I find more information?

 

CPA Financial Assistance Fact Sheet

On February 27, 2018, the Oxnard City Council introduced Ordinance No. 2935 approving the Joint Powers Agreement for Los Angeles Community Choice Energy (LACCE) authority and authorized implementation of a community choice aggregation (CCA) program. Since this time, LACCE has been renamed the Clean Power Alliance (CPA) to better reflect the organization and its goals.
 
On October 23, 2018, the City Council approved the selection of 100% renewable energy tier as the default energy option for all CPA customers within the City of Oxnard.  All electric accounts associated with residential, commercial, industrial or agricultural land uses will automatically be enrolled in the City selected tier rate.  Alternatively, if an electric account owner does not want to be enrolled in the City selected tier rate they will be able to select a different tier rate, by opting out of the City selected tier rate and specifying the desired tier.  All electric account owners will be able to adjust the tier rate at any time throughout the year. 
 
On February 1, 2019, all residential customers will be automatically enrolled in CPA service and in the City selected tier level, unless they opt out.  Once enrolled, customers will begin receiving their power from the CPA by paying a line item – “generation charges” – on their SCE bill. On May 1, 2019, all nonresidential customers (commercial, industrial, and agricultural accounts) will likewise be enrolled with the opportunity to opt out or select their desired energy tier.
 
As CPA begins to offer service, customers will receive mailed notice before and after they are switched from Southern California Edison (SCE) to CPA. The notices will give information about your new energy choices, including how to make changes to your account. While you will be automatically enrolled in the service option selected by the City of Oxnard, you can “opt down” to another rate option at any time.  You will always have an option to “opt up” or “opt down” to adjust your CPA energy selection to meet your personal needs.    To make these changes, choose your preferred option online here or call 888-585-3788 to make the change. Please have your SCE bill on hand because you will need your account information to process your request.

Hazardous Conditions Along Local Beaches

 

OXNARD, Calif. -The National Weather Service in Oxnard has issued a Beach Hazard Statement for the period beginning Saturday morning (1/5/19) and continuing through Monday morning (1/7/19).

 

There is a high potential that breakers of up to 10 to 14 feet with max sets to 17 feet will occur along the Central Coast, with surf of 7 feet or higher possible for west-facing beaches of Ventura and Los Angeles Counties.  During this time waves along the affected shores will be higher than normal. Residents and visitors are urged to use caution when near the shoreline and avoid entering the water due to the dangerous wave action and strong rip currents.

 

There is also the potential of moderate to heavy rain in the area beginning Saturday afternoon and continuing through Sunday. Thunderstorms are also possible during this period. If your property has a history of flooding, residents and business are encouraged to take protective actions in advance of the rain. During storms and periods of rain, caution should also be used around all flooded streets, culverts, streams and rivers. Residents are encouraged to report storm-related hazards such as flooded roads, malfunctioning traffic signals, downed trees, limbs, and electrical wires.

 

Oxnard officials will closely be monitoring the surf and storm conditions and remain in communication with the Ventura County Office of Emergency Services and the National Weather Service.

Should surf weather conditions become severe, emergency information would be posted at: http://www.vcemergency.com
