CaliforniaCalifornia Renewables Portfolio Standard Program: hydroelectric generation.
What it does
Existing law establishes the California Renewables Portfolio Standard Program, which requires the Public Utilities Commission to implement annual procurement targets for the procurement of eligible renewable energy resources, as defined, for all retail sellers, as defined, and requires local publicly owned electric utilities to adopt and implement renewable energy resources procurement plans to achieve the targets and goals of the program. Under existing law, eligible renewable energy resources include small hydroelectric generation facilities of 30 megawatts or less that meet specified criteria.
More detail
This bill would revise the definition of an eligible renewable energy resource for the purposes of the California Renewables Portfolio Standard Program to include all hydroelectric generating facilities and would make conforming changes.
