The state of California is charging residents $30,000 to run gas lines to their homes
But it gets worse, for fire rebuilds in places like Pacific Palisades SoCalGas is quoting $53,000 for gas reconnection
This is because the California Public Utilities Commission is pushing toward building electrification and strict utility regulations, they don’t want you to use gas
For extensions property owners often pay to run new pipe under their streets and driveways. After permits costs frequently exceed $20k–$50k+
Here’s where it gets borderline criminal
Since 2023, California eliminated subsidies, like line extension allowances that used to offset costs for gas hookups, putting the full cost to the applicant to discourage gas expansion and encourage all-electric builds
