Proposition 39 K-12 Program - March 1, 2018, Remaining Balance Estimate

The Proposition 39 K-12 Program received $1.748 billion over five fiscal years, beginning with fiscal year 2013-2014 and ending this fiscal year 2017-2018.

As of March 1, 2018, it is estimated that $114.5 million remains unrequested from the Proposition 39 K-12 Program. This estimate includes both the remaining funds allocated to local educational agencies (LEA) that have not submitted an energy expenditure plan, and the remaining balances of the participating LEAs that submitted an energy expenditure plan but did not request the entire five-year allocation.

The California Energy Commission is reviewing all submitted energy expenditure plans, with June 30, 2018, as the final date to approve all requests for funding. On July 1, 2018, the Energy Commission will provide the California Department of Education (DOE) the final energy expenditure plan approval list. In July, DOE will determine the final remaining balance for the Proposition 39: Clean Energy Job Creation Fund’s K-12 Program.

Questions may be directed to Prop39@energy.ca.gov or the Proposition 39 (K-12) Hotline, toll-free at 855-380-8722, or for those out-of-state at (916) 653-0392.

FINAL REMINDER: Energy Expenditure Plan Due Date is February 26, 2018

Final Reminder: February 26, 2018, is the final opportunity to request Proposition 39 funding. If a local educational agency (LEA) has award allocation remaining, now is the time to apply by submitting an energy expenditure plan (EEP) to the Energy Commission.

All amendments requesting additional Proposition 39 K-12 grant funding are also due by February 26, 2018.

After February 26, 2018, the Energy Expenditure Plan Online System will not accept new energy expenditure plans or amendments requesting additional Proposition 39 funding. However, amendments for adjustments to approved EEPs that do not request additional funding will continue to be accepted after February 26, 2018. Rules regarding amendments that document significant EEP changes are outlined in the program guidelines.

California Energy Commission staff will conduct a workshop to seek public comments into program design for the School Bus Replacement, ECAA-Ed Competitive, and Proposition 39 K-12 Competitive programs on:

Background

Senate Bill 110, (Chapter 55, Statutes of 2017), allocates funding for three programs to be administered by the Energy Commission: 1) Up to $75 million to be provided to school districts and county offices of education for grants or loans for school bus retrofit or replacement; 2) Up to $100 million on a competitive basis for low or no-interest ECAA-Ed loans for eligible energy projects; and 3) Any remaining funds are allocated to a new Proposition 39 K-12 competitive grant program for local education agencies for energy efficiency and energy generation projects. Staff from the Energy Commission, Fuels and Transportation Division, will discuss a draft concept under consideration for a solicitation on the school bus replacement program. Local Assistance and Finance Office staff will present the draft program concept under consideration for a solicitation for both the ECAA-Ed Competitive and the Proposition 39 K-12 Competitive programs. This workshop will discuss funding, eligibility requirements, consider evaluation criteria, and respond to public comments and questions.

ATTENTION: Energy Expenditure Plan Due Date Extended to January 12, 2018

Good News! With the passage of the 2017-18 California Budget Act, the Energy Commission can now extend the energy expenditure plan (EEP) application due date to January 12, 2018! Local educational agencies (LEAs) now have an additional five months to participate in the Proposition 39 K-12 program. This means that LEAs can now submit final EEPs after the California Department of Education announces the 2017-18 fiscal year allocations this fall.

Other related topics:

Amendments: All amendments requesting additional Proposition 39 K-12 funding are due by January 12, 2018. LEAs are allowed to submit amendments after this date but only for other significant changes to EEP as outlined in the program guidelines. No amendments requesting additional Proposition 39 funding will be considered after January 12, 2018.
Encumbrance: The Energy Commission is using the California Department of Education’s guidance in interpreting the definition of encumbrance, which is defined in the California School Accounting Manual (CSAM) Section 210-11, Encumbrances are a budgetary tool and defined “as obligations in the form of purchase orders, contracts, salaries, and other commitments chargeable to an appropriation for which a part of the appropriation is reserved".

Now Available! New Resource to Better Estimate Five-Year Proposition 39 K-12 Allocation

The final date a local educational agency (LEA) can submit an energy expenditure plan (EEP) application to the Energy Commission is August 1, 2017. Because this date is prior to the California Department of Education’s 2017-18 fiscal year allocation announcement, the Energy Commission developed a helpful new tool to assist LEAs in planning their final EEP submission.

This new tool summarizes Proposition 39 K-12 program allocations by LEA, including an estimated total five-year allocation (XLSX File), the planning funds budget, the approved Proposition 39 K-12 grant amounts, and the estimated remaining allocation available for a final EEP application. Please note the estimated five year allocation is based on previous LEA allocations and the Governor’s proposed 2017-18 state budget, released on May 11, 2017. Remember these estimated allocations are intended for guidance, and do not reflect actual final allocations. The California Department of Education will announce the 2017-18 fiscal year allocation in Fall 2017.

Energy Commission Reports $827 Million Approved for Energy Projects in K-12 Schools

SACRAMENTO - California school facilities are being upgraded with the approval of $827 million from the Clean Energy Jobs Act (Proposition 39) K-12 Program. Energy efficiency and clean energy generation projects have already been completed in 52 school districts around the state that are projected to save the annual energy consumption equivalent of more than 2,000 homes – and save the school districts nearly $2.5 million in annual energy costs.

This milestone and others are described in a new California Energy Commission progress report on the Proposition 39 K-12 Program. Voters passed Proposition 39 in in 2012 to adjust for five years the corporate income tax code and allocate projected revenues to California’s general fund and to projects in schools that improve energy efficiency and expand clean energy generation in schools.

The full report, approved last week by the Proposition 39 Citizens Oversight Board, is available here: CEC-400-2017-001-CMF. Proposition 39: California Clean Energy Jobs Act, K-12 Program and Energy Conservation Assistance Act 2015-2016 Progress Report. It will be included in their annual report to the Legislature.

The report includes information and project data covering the period from December 2013 through June 30, 2016. Schools are required to submit a progress report annually to the Energy Commission for approved energy projects. Final reports must be filed once a project is complete and the school has gathered12 months of energy use data.

The Energy Commission reported 914 school districts submitted 981 energy projects for funding, benefitting 3,519 project school sites. The 52 school districts with completed project reports represent $27 million of Proposition 39 funding. An additional 174 school districts have completed project construction and have shifted into the data collection phase. This represents $104 million in Proposition 39 funding. Another 733 energy projects are still in the construction phase, with $151 million in Proposition 39 expenditures.

Proposition 39 states that schools must complete steps to secure and contract out for funding by June 30, 2018, meaning applications to the Energy Commission must be received by August 1, 2017. The report identified this timeline as a major challenge to the program, effectively shortening the program by eleven months.

The report also highlights the information on the Energy Commission’s zero interest loan program, known as the Energy Conservation Assistance Act – Education Subaccount (ECAA-ED) and the Bright Schools Program. Both programs were appropriated funds through Proposition 39 and compliment the K-12 grant program.

In addition to the Energy Commission, the California Department of Education, California Conservation Corps, California Workforce Development Board, and the California Community Colleges Chancellor’s Office each administer aspects of the Proposition 39 Program.

PRC Section 26206(d) states, "All projects shall require contracts that identify the project specifications, costs, and projected energy savings." The Proposition 39 Implementation Guidelines are available on the Proposition 39 K-12 Program webpage.

Note: In February a new certification will appear in the energy expenditure plan application:

"The LEA commits to following all contracting requirements in the Proposition 39 Guidelines, including not using a sole source process to award funds and providing a clear and accurate description of the eligible energy project in all contracts."
To ensure encumbrance of Proposition 39 K-12 Program allocations by the statutory deadline of June 30, 2018, the last date to submit energy expenditure plans to the Energy Commission is August 1, 2017.
A revised 2016-17 entitlement schedule has been posted on the CDE Proposition 39 webpage at https://www.cde.ca.gov/fg/aa/ca/prop39cceja.asp.
For LEAs with completed EEPs, a final project completion report will be made available on the Proposition 39 energy expenditure plan online system 12 months after the project completion date indicated in the annual progress report. The final project completion report must be submitted to the Energy Commission no later than three months after the report is made available.

No Need to Wait for Proposition 39 K-12 Final Funding Year! Small local educational agencies (LEAs) qualify now for two-year funding!

The California Department of Education (CDE) has announced that LEAs with 1,000 ADA or fewer (prior year) can now request a Proposition 39 K-12 final two-year combined award allocation option as provided for in Public Resources Code Section 26233(c). This option allows eligible LEAs to receive both fiscal year 2016/17 and 2017/18 award allocations this year. No need to wait until the final year of the program.

LEAs making this designation can receive the remaining Proposition 39 K-12 program allocation now!
The deadline to apply is Thursday, September 1, 2016.

LEAs making this election are encouraged to submit a final multi-year energy expenditure plan (EEP) to request the entire five year allocation. Once the EEP is approved, CDE will now be able to disperse the entire allocation this fiscal year. No need to wait for the final funding year of the program to receive the entire five year allocation.

Note: CDE has not completed the Proposition 39 K-12 program award allocation calculations for fiscal year 2016/17 and cautions districts’ reliance on calculations and/or estimates by other entities. The calculation will not be possible to complete until the CDE identifies the number of LEAs with 1,000 or less ADA that elect the two-year combined award option. Once all eligible LEAs make their elections, award allocations will be proportionately calculated for the remaining LEAs and award allocations will be announced by October 30, 2016.

Now Available! The new Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) Calculator, enhanced Facility and Service Account Information Form (CEC-24) and revised Energy Expenditure Plan Handbook are now available!

The new PPA calculator uses standardized assumptions and user defined photovoltaic (PV) project information to provide calculations. It will provide a consistent basis for the evaluation of the savings and cost effectiveness associated with PPA-funded solar PV or clean energy generation projects proposed to be developed at LEA sites.

The CEC-24 has been revised to include an enhanced feature that copies all the information (except utility account numbers) from the previous line. This is beneficial for LEAs with multiple meter accounts from a single utility.

The Energy Expenditure Plan Handbook has been updated to include instructions on the enhanced CEC-24 form and the new PPA calculator.

These documents and an updated Summary of Changes listing can be found on our Proposition 39 web page.
