La Cañada Flintridge will host two town halls this summer to help residents and businesses prepare for the upcoming transition to Clean Power Alliance as the city’s new electricity provider, officials said Tuesday.

The changeover will begin in October 2025. Electricity will continue to be delivered by Southern California Edison, and customers will still receive a single bill from SCE. The only change will appear in the electricity generation portion of the bill, where CPA’s charges will replace SCE’s generation charges at no additional cost.

Customers will be automatically enrolled in a renewable energy tier chosen by the City Council. However, starting in August, customers will have the option to change to a different CPA energy tier or opt out and continue with SCE.

CPA’s website, CleanPowerAlliance.org, will offer what officials called a user-friendly cost comparison tool at that time to help residents and businesses evaluate their options.

To help the community learn more about the transition, the City will host town halls in the City Hall Council Chambers on the following days:

— July 22 at 6 p.m. — General overview of Clean Power Alliance and the transition process;

— Aug. 26 at 6 p.m. — Detailed discussion of CPA*s program offerings and customer options.

“Our partnership with Clean Power Alliance gives our community more control over our local energy choices,” Mayor Michael Davitt said. “This is an important step in supporting sustainability and ensuring reliable, affordable electricity for La Cañada Flintridge.”
