The California Public Utilities Commission on Thursday approved a deal regarding a botched SDG&E lightbulb project that will see the utility refund $51.6 million to ratepayers and pay a $5.5 million fine.  UCAN earlier highlighted the agreement that resulted from excellent work by The Utility Reform Network (TURN) and the Public Advocates Office, an independent arm of the utilities commission.  UCAN congratulates them on the great result!  Please see:  https://www.sandiegouniontribune.com/business/story/2021-09-09/sdg-e-pays-51-6-million-in-refunds-after-botched-lightbulb-program.
