This bill died with 2011-2012 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This bill is no longer active — its legislative session has ended, so there is no live prognosis.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 establishes a net energy metering program that is available to an eligible fuel cell customer-generator, as defined. The existing definition of an eligible fuel cell customer-generator requires that the customer use a fuel cell electrical generating facility with a capacity of not more than one megawatt that is located on or adjacent to the customer's owned, leased, or rented premises, is interconnected to, and operates in parallel with, the electrical grid while the grid is operational or in a grid independent mode when the grid is nonoperational, and is sized to offset part or all of the eligible fuel cell customer-generator's own electrical requirements. This bill would revise the definition of an eligible fuel cell customer-generator to increase the permissible generating capacity of the fuel cell electrical generating facility to not more than 3 megawatts. This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as an urgency statute.
