Built around the hardest parts of the SCE bill
Watt Bounty exists because solar, storage and SCE’s rate rules have made commercial electric bills too complex to check by eye, and the mistakes repeat every month until someone catches them.
Three areas where commercial bills go wrong
Watt Bounty was founded by Alan Lee to give commercial building owners in Southern California Edison territory an independent, tariff-level check on their electric bills.
We specialize in the parts of the SCE bill that are most often wrong, or most expensive to leave alone:
- NEM-3 (Net Billing Tariff) solar billing: hourly export credits, vintage lock-ins, true-ups and the transition from legacy NEM.
- Battery (BESS) demand-charge shaving: whether storage actually cuts the interval that sets each demand charge, and which rate options fit a storage site.
- Rate-schedule fit: SCE schedule assignment, Option D vs. E vs. CPP, and when a finding is a refund versus a forward-only saving.

Four principles
Tariff first
Each finding traces back to a specific SCE tariff sheet, rule and effective date, using the rates in effect for each billing period.
Every line checked against the tariff
Our proprietary audit process recalculates every line against your tariff, and findings are escalated to a specialist when needed.
Transparent pricing
Our fee percentage and a worked example are published. We invoice only on verified savings, and the fee stops after a year.
On your side
We’re independent of SCE, and we tell you about risks as well as upside, including when an audit could uncover an undercharge.
Depth in one utility beats a checklist for fifty
SCE’s commercial tariffs combine demand thresholds, multiple rate options, Critical Peak Pricing defaults and a Net Billing Tariff with vintage-locked export credits. We start where the rules are most intricate and our expertise is deepest, and we’ll expand only when we can be just as rigorous elsewhere.
