LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

SB 700, as introduced, Wiener. Energy storage.

Existing law requires the Public Utilities Commission to open a proceeding to determine appropriate targets, if any, for each load-serving entity, as defined, to procure viable and cost-effective energy storage systems to be achieved by December 31, 2015, and December 31, 2020. If determined to be appropriate, the commission is required to adopt the procurement targets, by October 1, 2013, and to reevaluate the determinations not less than once every 3 years. Existing law excludes an electrical corporation that has 60,000 or fewer customer accounts within California from these requirements. Pursuant to these requirements, the commission adopted Decision 13-10-040 (October 17, 2013), Decision Adopting Energy Storage Procurement Framework and Design Program.

This bill would state the intent of the Legislature to enact legislation to foster growth of the energy storage market.
