SCE rate plan calculator

Enter your summer and winter use, your baseline region and the routine closest to your household. We apply SCE's published prices, baseline credits and the daily Base Services Charge to every hour of a typical month and compare a year on each plan.

Lowest estimate: Tiered Rate Plan (Schedule D)about $2,230 a year

Plan	Summer / month	Winter / month	Per year	vs lowest
Tiered Rate Plan (Schedule D)	$225	$166	$2,230	—
Time-of-Use 4–9 p.m. (TOU-D-4-9PM)	$233	$167	$2,271	+$41
Time-of-Use 5–8 p.m. (TOU-D-5-8PM)	$237	$166	$2,274	+$44

TOU-D-4-9PM: about 10% of your use falls in on-peak hours. Moving a tenth of your highest-priced use to the cheapest hours would save roughly $37 a year.
TOU-D-5-8PM: about 7% of your use falls in on-peak hours. Moving a tenth of your highest-priced use to the cheapest hours would save roughly $32 a year.
Estimates include the daily Base Services Charge and baseline credits but not taxes, city fees or other riders. Your usage pattern is an assumption; see how we calculate.

How the plans differ

TOU-D-4-9PM and TOU-D-5-8PM charge most on summer weekday evenings and give a 9¢ credit per kWh up to your baseline. The 5–8 p.m. version has a shorter but more expensive peak.
TOU-D-PRIME has the lowest off-peak and super off-peak prices but no baseline credit. It is open to homes with an EV, a home battery or an electric heat pump.
Tiered (Schedule D) ignores the time of day: 30¢ per kWh up to your baseline allocation and 39¢ above it.

Sources and notes

Prices are SCE's published per-kWh prices for customers who get both delivery and generation from SCE, rounded to the cent on SCE's site (rates as of October 1, 2026).
If a Community Choice Aggregator (such as Clean Power Alliance) supplies your generation, your prices differ.
CARE and FERA bill discounts are not included except for the lower Base Services Charge, so income-qualified customers will pay less than shown.
Holidays are priced like weekends; holiday dates follow SCE's usual tariff rules and are being checked against the tariff.
