About PowerSov
An advocacy website created to inform San Diegans about the reality of our electricity rates.
Southern California
Power Sovereignty
I created PowerSov after realizing just how off the electricity situation is in San Diego. We pay some of the highest rates in the entire country, while SDG&E extracts nearly a billion dollars in profit annually from our community.
The more I researched, the more I realized most San Diegans don't know how much they're overpaying compared to other Californians. Municipal utilities like SMUD charge half of what we pay. That's not a small difference - that's thousands of dollars per year for many families.
This website exists to share what I've learned. The facts speak for themselves: San Diego's electricity system is designed to maximize shareholder returns, not to serve the community. I believe everyone deserves to know the truth.
