Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

PRESS RELEASE. From the City of Half Moon Bay eNews on February, 8th, 2024.

If you went without power for 48 hours or longer due to a storm or other major weather-related event, you may qualify for a PG&E Storm Inconvenience Payment.

 

To qualify, you must meet the following criteria:

  • You are a PG&E electric residential customer. Enrollment in programs such as CARE or Medical Baseline Allowance does not impact eligibility.
  • Your PG&E residential account is in good standing at the time of the outage and at the time PG&E issues payment (typically 45-60 days after the event).
  • You experienced a power outage for 48 consecutive hours or longer during a major weather-related event.
  • The extended outage is the result of a major weather-related event that caused significant damage to PG&E’s electric distribution system.

 

If you are eligible, you do not need to apply – PG&E will send payments directly to you.
