Bill overview
This bill aims to increase transparency and public input in decisions made by the California Public Utilities Commission (PUC) regarding electricity rates, particularly for local publicly owned electric utilities. It prohibits the PUC from scheduling rate increases for utilities with large revenue requirements on its consent agenda and requires at least a 30-minute public comment period before voting on rate increases exceeding 5%. The bill also extends the requirements of the California Renewables Portfolio Standard Program to compliance periods established by the State Energy Resources Conservation and Development Commission.
