Project: renewable portfolio standard (rps) implementation
|
Summary:
Achieving California's Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) goals will require California's regulated public utilities to acquire 20% of their electricity supply from renewable resources by 2010. Our state's energy regulatory agencies are tasked with the job of enforcing this mandate in a way which is most likely to succeed and most beneficial to ratepayers. With the continuing support of the Energy Foundation and our new technology affiliates, CEERT has been a leading public interest intervener in the CPUC RPS implementation proceedings from the beginning. |
Recent Developments:
CEERT’s specific focus since September at the CPUC has been on tradable renewable energy credits (RECs) for RPS compliance and the RPS standard terms and conditions. For TRECs, CEERT's active developers on this issue have been working with attorney Sara Myers to prepare post-workshop comments to respond to the issues presented by an ALJ's Ruling and to offer opinions and suggested changes to an Energy Division "straw proposal" to permit use of TRECs for RPS compliance. These comments are due on November 13, 2007.
