This bill died with 2009-2010 Regular Session. It reached “Passed Assembly” and never advanced before the session ended, so it can no longer move — a new version would have to be reintroduced in the current session.

This bill is no longer active — its legislative session has ended, so there is no live prognosis. It would have to be reintroduced in the current session to move again.

Summary

Existing law requires the State Energy Resources Conservation and Development Commission, in consultation with specified entities, to establish eligibility criteria for solar energy systems receiving ratepayer funded incentives including, among other things, that the solar energy system be located on the same premises of the end-use consumer where the consumer's own electricity demand is located. This bill would expand the eligibility to include a solar energy system that is located on a near-site location to the end-use consumer.
