Proposed 4% Rate Increase for 2026

On Dec. 9, 2025, Silicon Valley Power (SVP) will propose a 4% rate increase to the City Council, set to take effect in January 2026. This adjustment is necessary to manage rising material and construction costs, as well as to fund new projects and maintain reserves in line with city growth. Despite the increase, Santa Clara’s electricity rates will remain among the lowest for California utilities serving more than 5,000 customers.

This rate adjustment is essential to maintaining a reliable power system for Santa Clara’s future.

For those looking to manage their energy usage and lower their electric bills, SVP offers a variety of online resources, including appliance rebates [ https://www.siliconvalleypower.com/residents/rebates-6214 ], energy-saving tips [ https://www.siliconvalleypower.com/residents/save-energy/energy-saving-tips-6216 ], and a Tool Lending Library [ https://www.siliconvalleypower.com/residents/save-energy/tool-lending-library ] to measure plug loads from devices like televisions, video game consoles, and computers.
