PCIA is the portion of your bill intended to ensure that customers who receive their electric supply from third-party providers, such as a CCA, pay their share of costs for energy that was acquired by PG&E to serve them prior to their departure. The PCIA is included in PG&E’s “non-generation charges” and may change annually to ensure that PG&E’s remaining customers do not bear any cost created by departing customers who receive their electric supply from a third-party provider, such as a CCA.
