LADWP considers heat wave utility bill relief and payment protections for residents

LADWP commissioners will consider utility bill relief, expanded efficiency rebates, and billing assistance for Angelenos facing high summer power bills. The Los Angeles Department of Water and Power Board of Commissioners is meeting to consider direct relief measures for residents facing high electric bills due to prolonged summer heat. The utility is considering rate audits, expanded rebate incentives, and extended customer protections. Proposed assistance includes a 25% increase to the LADWP energy efficiency rebate program, and calls for an independent audit into utility rate structures. The Board of Water & Power is also considering long-term oversight of consumer costs. Starting next month, ratepayers will begin receiving more detailed billing information to help monitor usage and reduce monthly expenses.
