The RPS eligibility guidebook is the authority for facility certification requirements and generation reporting requirements. The guidebook is the primary resource to learn about RPS participation and overall program guidance. Please also refer to its corresponding RPS Resolution No. 17-0712-04. Previous guidebook editions are also available.
The RPS program uses an online portal to interact with stakeholders. The portal is used for program involvement activities, including:
- Viewing a public list of RPS facilities.
- Applying for RPS certification of a facility.
- Reporting generation claims to Energy Commission staff.
The processes and formulas that the Energy Commission staff uses to determine the eligibility and quality of renewable generation are in the Verification Methodology Report - PDF.
The Energy Commission is responsible for verification and compliance of local publicly owned electric utilities (POU). Specific requirements are in the enforcement regulations.
