Thanks arnolddeleon and miimura! PG&E does not make it easy to compare outcomes between the rates for E-TOU A or B or E-6. I just looked at the tables, picked my region:T and looked at the columns under Code H for All-Electric Quantities since I have electric heating.

E-TOU option A tier 1
Summer 8.2 cents per kW and Winter 14.1 cents per kW

E-6 tier 1
Summer 8.3 cents per kW and Winter 14.9 cents per kW

Of course many other factors may come into play. What does tier 2 look like? Is my electric vehicle charging putting me into tier 2 or tier 3? What else affects my expenses?

By the way, the letter I got on 2-13-16 told me I would be put in E 1 and charged on the total amount of electricity I used. If I did not want that then the two choices they presented to me were: E-6 (and I must choose that before 3-1-2016) or E- TOU option A or option B. E-TOU is not available until 3-1-2016. The advice letter mentions that time of use meters may become obsolete and the residential customer must bear this expense. I would like to get a little more use out of mine before it becomes obsolete.

B is for high usage. Does my usage fall into high usage? Initially, I thought they meant really high usage like a business operation might experience.

They did not offer me an EV rate.
