Review of Sacramento Municipal Utility District's 2018 Integrated Resource Plan

Senate Bill 350 (De León, Chapter 547, Statutes of 2015), (Public Utilities Code Section 9621) requires the California Energy Commission (CEC) to review the integrated resource plans of identified publicly owned utilities to ensure they meet various requirements specified in the law, including greenhouse gas emission reduction targets and renewable energy procurement requirements. Integrated resource plans are long-term planning documents that outline how publicly owned utilities will meet demand reliably and cost effectively, while achieving state policy goals and mandates. Sacramento Municipal Utility District submitted its Integrated Resource Plan and supplemental information, which the Sacramento Municipal Utility District adopted on October 18, 2018, to the CEC for review on April 29, 2019. This staff paper presents the results of the CEC staff review of the Sacramento Municipal Utility District integrated resource plan.
