The Imperial Irrigation District’s Board of Directors approved a 25% reduction in power bills between the months of June and September, authorities announced Tuesday.
Backed by an $81 million allocation, the Board eliminated the Energy Cost Adjustment charge, a decision that members say will deliver a “more stable, transparent rate structure while directing funds toward real savings.”
The Board previously approved long-term rate stability through 2028 on a motion by Director Alex Cardenas, according to a statement published Tuesday.
“Our priority is always our customers,” said Gina Dockstader, IID chairperson, in the statement. “This plan ensures real savings, a stronger IID, and a more affordable future for our community.”
The utility provides electricity to more than 150,000 customers in parts of Riverside and San Diego counties, as well as all of Imperial County.
