Backers of a move to replace San Diego Gas & Electric with a municipal utility are calling out utility efforts to defeat their initiative.

A group trying to fire San Diego Gas & Electric and replace it with a municipal utility is speaking out. KPBS Environment Reporter Erik Anderson says Power San Diego doesn’t appreciate SDG&E’s moves to stop their ballot initiative.

Power San Diego supporters have until May 14 to raise about 80,000 valid signatures to put the initiative on the November ballot.The utility currently has the second highest electricity price in California, since Pacific Gas & Electric got regulators to approve a massive rate hike late last year. SDG&E Vice President Scott Crider and SDG&E public affairs official Brittany Syz are the PAC’s principal officers. The utility has paid for all the PAC’s $300,000 in contributions.
