Electricity: clean distributed energy resources.

Existing law requires the Public Utilities Commission, on a biennial basis and in consultation with the Independent System Operator and the State Energy Resources Conservation and Development Commission, to study and submit a report to the Legislature and the Governor on the impacts of distributed energy generation on the state's distribution and transmission grid. This bill would instead require the Public Utilities Commission, on a biennial basis, to study and submit a report to the Legislature and the Governor on the impacts of distributed generation, including clean distributed energy resources, as defined, on the state's distribution and transmission grid.
