Not sure where you’re getting 16 cents, the lowest PG&E tier is 24 cents [0]

To add, Santa Clara city is served by Silicon Valley Power which I believe has substantially lower rates than PG&E.. there may be other such local providers..

Confirmed for Santa Clara -- 11 cents for the first 300 kWh, slightly less for off-peak hours (if you install a Time of Use meter): https://www.siliconvalleypower.com/home/showpublisheddocumen...

https://www.eia.gov/electricity/state/ According to their data the average includes all customers. For residential alone (their table 8) the average was 19.15 cents.

I'm in Palo Alto and I pay 14 cents. Yes, we also have our own local provider.
