Existing Renewables Facilities Program, Fourth Edition - Staff Draft-Guidebook

Publication Number:    CEC-300-2006-020-SD

Abstract:
The California Energy Commission (Energy Commission) has developed this Guidebook to implement and administer its Existing Renewable Facilities Program pursuant to Senate Bill 1038 and Senate Bill 1250. These laws, in conjunction with the Reliable Electric Service Investments Act, extend the collection of a non-bypassable system benefit charge initiated in 1998 under Assembly Bill 1890 and authorize the expenditure of funds collected to support existing, new, and emerging renewable resources. The goal of these laws is to establish a competitive, self-sustaining renewable energy supply for California while increasing the near-term quantity of renewable energy generated in-state.This Guidebook describes the requirements for receiving funding under the Existing Renewable Facilities Program (ERFP). The ERFP is one of several program elements within the Energy Commission's Renewable Energy Program.
