Summary

Existing law establishes the California Renewables Portfolio Standard Program to attain a target of generating 20% of total retail sales of electricity in California from eligible renewable energy resources, as defined, by December 31, 2013, 33% by December 31, 2020, 50% by December 31, 2026, and 60% by December 31, 2030. Existing law requires the Public Utilities Commission (PUC) , as part of that program, to establish the quantity of electricity products from eligible renewable energy resources to be procured by each retail seller for each compliance period, and requires those quantities to reflect reasonable progress in each of the intervening years sufficient to ensure that the procurement of electricity products from eligible renewable energy resources achieves 25% of retail sales by December 31, 2016, 33% by December 31, 2020, 44% by December 31, 2024, 52% by December 31, 2027, and 60% by December 31, 2030. Existing law requires each local publicly owned electric utility to adopt and implement a renewable energy resources procurement plan to achieve those same specified targets applicable to each retail seller. Existing law establishes a policy of the state that eligible renewable energy resources and zero-carbon resources supply 90% of all retail sales of electricity to California end-use customers by December 31, 2035, 95% of all retail sales of electricity to California end-use customers by December 31, 2040, 100% of all retail sales of electricity to California end-use customers by December 31, 2045, and 100% of electricity procured to serve all state agencies by December 31, 2035. Existing law requires the PUC, State Energy Resources Conservation and Development Commission, and State Air Resources Board to issue a joint report to the Legislature by January 1, 2021, and at least every 4 years thereafter, that includes, among other things, a review of this policy and the barriers to, and benefits of, achieving the policy. This bill would require those entities to also include in the joint report a statewide transmission plan to facilitate the timely attainment of the policy and the targets of the California Renewables Portfolio Standard Program, as specified.
