Overview

Direct Access

Direct Access (DA) was suspended in September 2001.  Under the suspension, existing DA customers could continue in the program, but no new customers were eligible.  In October 2009, a new law provided for a limited re-opening of DA that SDG&E implemented in April 2010.  The limited re-opening is available only for non-residential customers and the amount of customer usage that can transfer to DA is capped.

Update May 15, 2013

The SDG&E Total Load Allowance, 3,562 GWh, is fully subscribed.

SDG&Ewill not be accepting 6-Month Notices to Transfer to Direct Access until the next DA enrollment period which will begin on Monday, April 8, 2013 at 9:00 am PDT.  Customers or their authorized agents may submit Six Month Notices during the five (5) business days beginning April 8th and ending Friday, April 12, 2013 at 5 pm PDT.
