CALIFORNIA LEGISLATURE— 2021–2022 REGULAR SESSION

Assembly Bill

No. 2635

Introduced by Assembly Member Levine

February 18, 2022

An act to amend Section 454.54 of the Public Utilities Code, relating to electricity.

LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

AB 2635, as introduced, Levine. Load-serving entities: integrated resource plans.

Existing law requires the Public Utilities Commission to adopt a process for each load-serving entity, defined to include electrical corporations, electric service providers, and community choice aggregators, to file an integrated resource plan and a schedule for periodic updates to the plan to ensure that it meets, among other things, the state’s targets for reducing emissions of greenhouse gases and the requirement to procure at least 60% of its electricity from eligible renewable energy resources by December 31, 2030. Existing law additionally requires the integrated resource plan to contribute to a diverse and balanced portfolio of resources needed to ensure a reliable supply of electricity that provides optimal integration of renewable energy resources in a cost-effective manner, meets the state’s targets for reducing emissions of greenhouse gases, and prevents cost shifting among load-serving entities.

This bill would make a nonsubstantive change to the latter provision.

Vote: MAJORITY Appropriation: NO Fiscal Committee: NO Local Program: NO

The people of the State of California do enact as follows:

SECTION 1.
