Document Description
The purpose of this activity is to revise guidelines previously adopted by the California Energy Commission pursuant to Public Resources Code section 25780 et seq., as enacted by Senate Bill (SB 1, Statues of 2006, Chapter 132). The guidelines establish eligibility criteria, conditions for incentives and rating standards for all ratepayer-funded solar energy incentive programs pursuant to SB 1, including programs administered by the California Energy Commission, the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC), and local publicly owned electric utilities (POUs). The guidelines were revised to clarify and revise the accuracy requirements for inverter-integrated performance meters for solar energy systems eligible for SB 1 funding. The California Energy Commission, the CPUC, POUs, and manufacturers, retailers, installers and marketers of solar energy systems that qualify for program funding benefit from the adoption of these guideline revisions.
