Organized as a California Mutual Benefit Corporation and incorporated as a 501 (c)(6), the Electric Ratepayers Alliance (ERA) was formed in 2016.
Its initial initiatives addressed the inequities and barriers faced by ratepayers in utility territories resistant to the inevitable transition to local power sources in terms of recognizing and appropriately compensating the effective contributions of homes and businesses, as well as the lack of representation on the boards making decisions on behalf of those living in those territories.
The lack of a just system that encourages the adoption of carbon-free generated electricity has greatly hampered progress for residents served by territories where a utility directly contradicts its fiduciary responsibility to benefit those it serves, as opposed to Investor-owned utilities who answer to shareholders.
In fact, most of the aforementioned utilities have mission statements that communicate that they are to provide reliable, efficient, and affordably-priced energy services to the communities they serve; however, consistent, jarring rate hikes over the last few years bely that mission - for all ratepayers.
ERA’s main goal is to promote verifiably clean, local energy sources and programs that save consumers money while building a resilient community grid to replace aging grid systems, as those sources and programs fall under all electric utilities’ mission statements and obligations.
Today, ERA continues to advocate for all electric ratepayers across California so the ultimate goal to fuel our world with clean, dependable, localized energy can be achieved. Today, focused initiatives are underway to achieve this goal.
