Energy: solar energy systems.
Summary
Existing law requires the State Energy Resources Conservation and Development Commission, in consultation with specified entities, to establish eligibility criteria for solar energy systems receiving ratepayer funded incentives including, among other things, that the solar energy system be located on the same premises of the end-use consumer where the consumer's own electricity demand is located. This bill would expand the eligibility to include a solar energy system that is located on a near-site location to the end-use consumer.
