Existing Renewables Facilities Program: Sixth Edition - Commission Draft Guidebook

Publication Number:    CEC-300-2009-001-D

Abstract:

The Existing Renewable Facilities Program Guidebook describes the requirements to apply for and receive production incentives from the Existing Renewable Facilities element of the Energy Commission’s Renewable Energy Program. This program is to improve the competitiveness of existing in-state renewable generating facilities so these facilities may become self-sustaining without further public funding by 2011, and to secure for California the environmental, economic, and reliability benefits these facilities provide by continuing to operate. The Guidebook outlines eligibility and legal requirements, details how funding awards will be made, describes invoicing procedures, and includes necessary forms and instructions for program participants.
