Opt out frequently asked questions

  • Why was I enrolled into OCPA?

    Historically, Southern California Edison has been the default power provider to most customers. However, in 2002 when state legislators passed California’s Community Choice Aggregation law, this default status was transferred from Southern California Edison to local community choice programs like OCPA. Customers now have the power to choose who provides their energy.
