Staff Report Item 2
TO: 3CE Operations Board of Directors
FROM: Robert M. Shaw, CEO
PREPARED BY: Jerri Strickland, Director of Regulatory Affairs & Compliance SUBJECT: Ratify CalCCA annual membership dues payments for 3CE’s Fiscal Year 2025-2026 and authorize the CEO to pay CalCCA for dues and services in an amount not to exceed $540,000
DATE: May 27, 2026
RECOMMENDATION:

Ratify CalCCA annual membership dues payments for 3CE’s Fiscal Year 2025-2026 and authorize the CEO to pay CalCCA for dues and services in an amount not to exceed $540,000 annually.

BACKGROUND:
3CE joined the California Community Choice Association (CalCCA) as a member agency in September of 2017. CalCCA is a critical industry association that provides critical expertise which enhances and extends the reach of 3CE’s staff in legal, regulatory, and legislative arenas. CalCCA also provides critical project management and coordination, as well as representing the legislative and regulatory interests of most community choice aggregator agencies (CCAs) across California. CalCCA actively advances the interests of CCAs with the State legislature, California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC), California Energy Commission, California Independent System Operator, and the California Air Resources Board.

Together, its members serve upwards of 14 million customers in more than 200 cities and counties across the state.

On March 13, 2026, the CalCCA Board unanimously approved CalCCA’s proposed budget and Operational Membership dues, covering a menu of additional services and support for CCAs. The CalCCA Board approved dues are scheduled to take effect on July 1, 2026. The 3CE’s annual dues for FY 25-26 are $540,000.

Page 5 of 1037 ends

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

CalCCA serves a critical role in assisting CCAs amplify their voices and advocate for regulatory changes that can impact CCAs and their customers by tens, if not hundreds, of millions of dollars annually. As an industry trade association, CalCCA is led by its member agency CEOs and funded primarily through dues contributions.

CalCCA provides a unified industry voice before the State legislature and regulatory bodies and acts as an extension of 3CE regulatory and legislative staff in a wide array of both ongoing and emergent policy areas. 3CE currently has three full-time regulatory positions and three full-time legislative positions, but through CalCCA we leverage our limited resources to ensure customer interests are advanced in state policy discussions. While not an exhaustive list, the graphic below highlights many of the policy areas where CalCCA leads on behalf of CCAs, including 3CE.

In CalCCA’s 2026-27 FY (July-June) we anticipate seeing increased activity in critical areas such as the Power Charge Indifference Adjustment, CPUC directed procurement reform, and distributed energy

resource initiatives. We further anticipate increased coordination through CalCCA for distribution planning, demand side energization, and solutions for the integration of data centers and other large load customers, as well as the broader markets coordination that could provide significant annual savings to customers.

The CalCCA budget and dues are designed and constructed to ensure the long-term viability of CalCCA, which requires sufficient funding to meet ongoing and anticipated workloads while continuing to provide significant and meaningful return to the CCAs. At the same time, the design of the membership dues seeks to provide members with predictable and stable year-over-year dues while ensuring an equitable distribution of costs to member CCAs.

The CalCCA dues methodology establishes dues by the amount of load served by the CCA and has five capped tiers based on a range of load served. 3CE sits in the fourth tier, with dues of $540,000, which is a 0% change from the previous fiscal year.
3CE and other CCAs coordinate and leverages CalCCA’s voice to advocate for favorable regulatory and legislative outcomes that benefit our local communities at the state level. During the 2024-2025 period, CalCCA tracked 128 bills that had the potential to impact the operations of CCAs in California. Of these, 17 bills were selected for targeted advocacy efforts aimed at improving affordability, developing a multi-state energy market to enhance energy reliability, and addressing efforts to limit flexibility in achieving the state’s 2045 clean energy goals. On the regulatory front, CalCCA filed 288 submissions across 66 proceedings and stakeholder processes, reflecting 3CE’s positions on key matters. These filings amounted to a total of 3,461 pages of documentation.

While not every legislative or regulatory engagement is a clear “win,” the tangible return from CalCCA is a significant reduction in 3CE costs and therefore direct savings to customers.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact as this regulatory expense was included in the Operating Budget for 3CE, which was approved by the Policy Board.

Page 7 of 1037 ends

CONCLUSION:

It is recommended that the Operations Board ratify CalCCA annual membership dues payments for 3CE’s Fiscal Year 2025-2026 and authorize the CEO to pay CalCCA for dues and services in an amount not to exceed $540,000 annually through June 30, 2027 in order to protect and promote 3CE regulatory and legislative interests.

RE: California Community Choice Association Operational Membership Dues FY 2026-2027 (July 1, 2026 – June 30, 2027)
Dear Director Shaw,
On March 13, 2026, the CalCCA Board unanimously approved the proposed FY 26-27 budget and corresponding changes to the Operational Membership dues methodology.

Specifically, as outlined in the table below, the Board agreed to change the metric for the dues calculation from Revenue to Load and increase the dues amount based on a percentage over the previous year. The Board also agreed to create more spread across the tier caps this year, which resulted in some caps reducing or remaining flat compared to FY 25-26.

FY 26-27 Dues Caps CCA Load
Tier 1: 3% Tier Increase
from FY 25-26 <1,000GWh
Tier 2: $432,600 1,000-<3,000 GWh
Tier 3: $515,000 3,000-<5,000 GWh
Tier 4: $540,000 5,000-<7,000 GWh
Tier 5: $571,650 >7,000GWh
Based on this, the annual contribution for your CCA will be $540,000 (Tier 4: 0% change) for the upcoming fiscal year.

Quarterly payment invoices will be sent at the beginning of each fiscal year quarter (July, October, January, and April) from the CalCCA QuickBooks system to your contact(s) on file.

Payments are due 30 days after receipt of the invoice.

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or would like to discuss your membership. We sincerely appreciate your continued partnership and involvement in CalCCA as we celebrate our 10th year of operation.

Thank you,

Dear Valued Members and Partners,
It is with great pride that I present to you our Fiscal Year 2024-2025 Year in Review. This past year, CalCCA has continued to demonstrate the strength and impact of our coordinated advocacy. With affordability top of mind for policymakers and communities alike, we worked tirelessly to elevate solutions that protect ratepayers while sustaining progress toward California’s clean energy future.

At the same time, we stayed firm in our commitment to California’s 2045 clean energy goals, opposing measures that would have slowed deployment of critical resources like energy storage and energy efficiency while supporting pragmatic steps to bolster reliability. CalCCA also took a leading role in shaping discussions around regional energy market integration, working to build consensus and ensure that any framework enhances affordability, reliability, and renewable energy development.

We coupled this policy work with technical leadership, producing in-depth analyses on resource adequacy that showed how collaboration among CCAs can lower costs by as much as $180 million annually. Our vigilance in scrutinizing utility data, improving access to market information, and ensuring fair cost allocation further protected CCA customers from billions in unnecessary charges. From advancing affordability legislation to securing corrections in regulatory modeling that saved customers hundreds of millions of dollars, our efforts underscored the value of CCAs working together through CalCCA.

Just as important as our advocacy is the way we come together as a community. Our 2025 Annual Conference in Irvine welcomed more than 870 attendees—our largest gathering yet—under the theme “Powerful Together.” Our Lobby Day in Sacramento brought 70 CCA representatives to nearly 60 meetings with legislators and state agencies. And our Policy and Stakeholder Forum convened industry leaders to dive deep into complex challenges and emerging opportunities.

As we look ahead, the challenges of affordability, reliability, and market evolution remain significant. But with our shared knowledge, coordinated advocacy, and unwavering commitment, I am confident that CCAs will continue to deliver for California’s communities.

Sincerely,

LETTER FROM THE

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER
Beth Vaughan

Affordability, reliability, and decarbonization remained at the forefront of legislative and regulatory debates, with decisions carrying billions of dollars in implications for customers and communities. CalCCA has been steadfast in these discussions—championing affordability, protecting progress toward the state’s 2045 clean energy goals, advancing thoughtful approaches to resource adequacy (RA), and correcting market and modeling flaws that could have placed unnecessary burdens on ratepayers. By engaging early on legislation, shaping policy frameworks, and applying technical rigor in complex proceedings, CalCCA ensures that CCAs are effectively represented in the most consequential energy policy decisions shaping California’s future. Policy advocacy highlights in 2024-2025 include:

ADVOCACY
• Advancing affordability discussion and actively
supporting affordability legislation. With
affordability at top of mind for policymakers,
CalCCA developed affordability options for the
Legislature and governor to consider; prioritized
affordability in 33 meetings with key legislators
active on energy issues and the governor’s office
during our annual Lobby Day in January; and
emerged as an early supporter of six bills aimed at
energy affordability.

• Fighting to stay the course on our 2045 clean
energy goals. CalCCA actively opposed legislation
that could limit the deployment of battery energy
storage systems, energy efficiency programs, and
building-decarbonization efforts, impeding our
ability to meet our 2045 clean energy goals. CalCCA
also worked to support sensible battery energy
storage system safety and geothermal and biomass
resources.
• Taking a lead role in advancing a landmark regional
markets initiative. CalCCA demonstrated leadership
in the effort to develop a framework, bring together
stakeholders, draft legislation, and advocate in the
Legislature for Assembly Bill 825 (formerly Senate Bill 540)—a landmark bill aimed at creating a regional,
multi-state energy market to enhance energy reliability, affordability, and renewable energy development.

Informing solutions to resource adequacy challenges.

CalCCA developed an in-depth analysis of transactability in the Slice-of-Day (SOD) RA program utilizing CCA
submittals for the 2024 test-year and 2025 year-ahead
time frames. The analysis showed that trading between
CCAs could lower RA costs by as much as $180 million per year. The analysis supported strong regulatory positions and is in the peer-review stage with The Electricity Journal, the leading journal in electric power policy.

“CalCCA gives CCAs a powerful, unified voice, ensuring our communities are skillfully represented on the most critical energy issues facing California.” –Robert Shaw, CEO, Central Coast Community Energy
• Improved Industry Modeling.
• CalCCA worked with CPUC Energy Division staff to identify and correct an error in the CPUC reliability modeling datasets, involving a one-hour shift in the historical load profiles. This shift erroneously put the peak summer hour one hour later relative to the output profile of solar. As a result, the error lowered the reliability contributions of solar resources and—by extending the duration of discharge for storage—lowered the reliability contribution of four-hour storage resources. Correcting this error reduced the necessary planning reserve margin from 22.5% to 21%, which is equivalent to approximately 700 MW of RA capacity in 2026. At the estimated 2026 RA market price benchmark of $12.52/kW-month, this correction to the planning reserve margin saves customers $105 million per year.
• CalCCA informed changes in the planning reserve margin and accounting for co-located resources to better reflect their contribution to reliability. These changes are estimated to have saved CCAs $136 million in RA procurement. - 10 -

LEGISLATIVE STATS

Page 19 of 1037 ends

“Through CalCCA, CCAs benefit tremendously from collaboration, shared knowledge, and coordinated advocacy, enabling even smaller CCAs to punch above their weight.” –Cathy DeFalco, General Manager, California Choice Energy Authority • Improved Access to Market Information. CalCCA maintained and shared with members a cleaned and easily accessible database of public capacity transactions in the WECC region based on FERC Electronic Quarterly Reports. CalCCA used this data in the PCIA proceeding to demonstrate that the RA market price benchmarks reflect the current market value of RA capacity retained by investor-owned utilities (IOUs), confirming alignment with mark-to-market principles. • Careful Scrutiny of Utility Data. CalCCA successfully worked with the IOUs to correct errors in their financial security requirements calculations, reducing CCA posting requirements by $150 million. • Improved CCA Recovery of Past-Due Customer Balances. Worked to establish proportional allocation of past-due customer revenue between the IOU and CCA as a permanent practice, ensuring $331 million in CCA arrearages are no longer secondary to IOU full recovery of delinquencies.
• Mitigated PCIA Impacts. CalCCA effectively argued to keep modification of the RPS MPB methodology out of the scope of Track One of the PCIA proceeding, preventing an approximately $1.44 billion impact to CCAs in all IOU territories. - 11 -

LEVERAGING CROSS-TEAM EXPERTISE
A core strength of CalCCA is the way staff teams coordinate seamlessly to advance shared priorities. By combining the deep subject-matter expertise of policy staff with the strategic reach of communications, CalCCA is able to translate complex technical issues into clear, compelling narratives that resonate with diverse audiences.

A prime example of this collaboration was the RA transactability campaign. Policy staff conducted a detailed analysis showing how hourly trading in the Slice-of-Day framework could lower costs without impacting reliability, then worked hand in hand with communications staff to share these findings widely.

Through website resources, social media, and staff presentations, CalCCA educated stakeholders and decision-makers on the benefits of enabling RA transactability. This integrated approach ensured that both the technical rigor of the analysis and the real-world value to customers were front and center.

WHAT IS THE RCPPP?
The Reliable and Clean Power Procurement Program (RCPPP) is the CPUC’s proposed long-term framework to replace the order-by-order procurement approach in the integrated resource planning (IRP) process. Introduced in April, it would integrate with the IRP, RA, and renewables portfolio standard (RPS) programs, adding new reliability and carbon-reduction mechanisms. The program is designed to guide IOUs, CCAs, and ESPs in building balanced, least-cost portfolios of reliable, clean energy while providing more predictable procurement requirements than past ad hoc midterm orders. - 13 -

LOOKING AHEAD
• Power Charge Indifference Adjustment. The CPUC recently modified the Power Charge Indifference Adjustment (PCIA) calculation in Track 1 of its new PCIA rulemaking and plans to undertake a more holistic look at the mechanism over the next year in Track 2— the most significant review it has undertaken since its 2017 rulemaking. Expect significant impacts on CCA rates. • Reliable Clean Power Procurement Process. The CPUC has begun to move forward on its new RCPPP approach in the Integrated Resource Plan (IRP) proceeding, and a new framework likely will be adopted over the next year. The pace of this initiative could leave room for new procurement orders in the interim and will change, in yet-unanticipated ways, CCAs’ approach to procurement and meeting climate goals.
• Affordability. Affordability will continue to be top of mind with legislators and a factor in regulatory decisions. CCAs continue to focus on the affordability of their portion of the bill, developing creative solutions like prepayment bonds. Substantial new transmission and distribution investments and escalating prices for newbuild generation will heighten affordability concerns absent substantial load growth to enable spreading these costs more broadly. • Data Centers & Other Large Loads. Data-center and large-load energy needs pervade both the regulatory and legislative spheres, touching on interconnection (both transmission and distribution), forecasting, procurement planning, and carbon content. CalCCA is advocating for improved consistency and transparency in IOU load-forecasting frameworks to ensure fairness, accountability, and effective infrastructure planning that protects ratepayer interests. New policy will affect CalCCA members, focused primarily but not exclusively in the Pacific Gas & Electric service territory. • Load Shifting. Load shifting remains near the top of policy discussions in the regulatory and legislative arenas. While load shifting is a benefit to CCA customers, and CCAs are pursuing various forms of this tool, regulatory intervention increases the administrative burden substantially without necessarily producing beneficial results.

April 22, 2026
RE: California Community Choice Association Operational Membership Dues FY 2026-2027 (July 1, 2026 – June 30, 2027)
Dear Director Shaw,
On March 13, 2026, the CalCCA Board unanimously approved the proposed FY 26-27 budget and corresponding changes to the Operational Membership dues methodology.

Specifically, as outlined in the table below, the Board agreed to change the metric for the dues calculation from Revenue to Load and increase the dues amount based on a percentage over the previous year. The Board also agreed to create more spread across the tier caps this year, which resulted in some caps reducing or remaining flat compared to FY 25-26.

FY 26-27 Dues Caps CCA Load
Tier 1: 3% Tier Increase
from FY 25-26 <1,000GWh
Tier 2: $432,600 1,000-<3,000 GWh
Tier 3: $515,000 3,000-<5,000 GWh
Tier 4: $540,000 5,000-<7,000 GWh
Tier 5: $571,650 >7,000GWh
Based on this, the annual contribution for your CCA will be $540,000 (Tier 4: 0% change) for the upcoming fiscal year.

Quarterly payment invoices will be sent at the beginning of each fiscal year quarter (July, October, January, and April) from the CalCCA QuickBooks system to your contact(s) on file.

Payments are due 30 days after receipt of the invoice.

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or would like to discuss your membership. We sincerely appreciate your continued partnership and involvement in CalCCA as we celebrate our 10th year of operation.

Thank you,

Dear Valued Members and Partners,
It is with great pride that I present to you our Fiscal Year 2024-2025 Year in Review. This past year, CalCCA has continued to demonstrate the strength and impact of our coordinated advocacy. With affordability top of mind for policymakers and communities alike, we worked tirelessly to elevate solutions that protect ratepayers while sustaining progress toward California’s clean energy future.

At the same time, we stayed firm in our commitment to California’s 2045 clean energy goals, opposing measures that would have slowed deployment of critical resources like energy storage and energy efficiency while supporting pragmatic steps to bolster reliability. CalCCA also took a leading role in shaping discussions around regional energy market integration, working to build consensus and ensure that any framework enhances affordability, reliability, and renewable energy development.

We coupled this policy work with technical leadership, producing in-depth analyses on resource adequacy that showed how collaboration among CCAs can lower costs by as much as $180 million annually. Our vigilance in scrutinizing utility data, improving access to market information, and ensuring fair cost allocation further protected CCA customers from billions in unnecessary charges. From advancing affordability legislation to securing corrections in regulatory modeling that saved customers hundreds of millions of dollars, our efforts underscored the value of CCAs working together through CalCCA.

Just as important as our advocacy is the way we come together as a community. Our 2025 Annual Conference in Irvine welcomed more than 870 attendees—our largest gathering yet—under the theme “Powerful Together.” Our Lobby Day in Sacramento brought 70 CCA representatives to nearly 60 meetings with legislators and state agencies. And our Policy and Stakeholder Forum convened industry leaders to dive deep into complex challenges and emerging opportunities.

As we look ahead, the challenges of affordability, reliability, and market evolution remain significant. But with our shared knowledge, coordinated advocacy, and unwavering commitment, I am confident that CCAs will continue to deliver for California’s communities.

Sincerely,

LETTER FROM THE

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

Affordability, reliability, and decarbonization remained at the forefront of legislative and regulatory debates, with decisions carrying billions of dollars in implications for customers and communities. CalCCA has been steadfast in these discussions—championing affordability, protecting progress toward the state’s 2045 clean energy goals, advancing thoughtful approaches to resource adequacy (RA), and correcting market and modeling flaws that could have placed unnecessary burdens on ratepayers. By engaging early on legislation, shaping policy frameworks, and applying technical rigor in complex proceedings, CalCCA ensures that CCAs are effectively represented in the most consequential energy policy decisions shaping California’s future. Policy advocacy highlights in 2024-2025 include:

ADVOCACY
• Advancing affordability discussion and actively
supporting affordability legislation. With
affordability at top of mind for policymakers,
CalCCA developed affordability options for the
Legislature and governor to consider; prioritized
affordability in 33 meetings with key legislators
active on energy issues and the governor’s office
during our annual Lobby Day in January; and
emerged as an early supporter of six bills aimed at
energy affordability.

• Fighting to stay the course on our 2045 clean
energy goals. CalCCA actively opposed legislation
that could limit the deployment of battery energy
storage systems, energy efficiency programs, and
building-decarbonization efforts, impeding our
ability to meet our 2045 clean energy goals. CalCCA
also worked to support sensible battery energy
storage system safety and geothermal and biomass
resources.
• Taking a lead role in advancing a landmark regional
markets initiative. CalCCA demonstrated leadership
in the effort to develop a framework, bring together
stakeholders, draft legislation, and advocate in the
Legislature for Assembly Bill 825 (formerly Senate Bill 540)—a landmark bill aimed at creating a regional,
multi-state energy market to enhance energy reliability, affordability, and renewable energy development.

Informing solutions to resource adequacy challenges.

CalCCA developed an in-depth analysis of transactability in the Slice-of-Day (SOD) RA program utilizing CCA
submittals for the 2024 test-year and 2025 year-ahead
time frames. The analysis showed that trading between
CCAs could lower RA costs by as much as $180 million per year. The analysis supported strong regulatory positions and is in the peer-review stage with The Electricity Journal, the leading journal in electric power policy.

A prime example of this collaboration was the RA transactability campaign. Policy staff conducted a detailed analysis showing how hourly trading in the Slice-of-Day framework could lower costs without impacting reliability, then worked hand in hand with communications staff to share these findings widely.

Through website resources, social media, and staff presentations, CalCCA educated stakeholders and decision-makers on the benefits of enabling RA transactability. This integrated approach ensured that both the technical rigor of the analysis and the real-world value to customers were front and center.

WHAT IS THE RCPPP?
The Reliable and Clean Power Procurement Program (RCPPP) is the CPUC’s proposed long-term framework to replace the order-by-order procurement approach in the integrated resource planning (IRP) process. Introduced in April, it would integrate with the IRP, RA, and renewables portfolio standard (RPS) programs, adding new reliability and carbon-reduction mechanisms. The program is designed to guide IOUs, CCAs, and ESPs in building balanced, least-cost portfolios of reliable, clean energy while providing more predictable procurement requirements than past ad hoc midterm orders. - 13 -

LOOKING AHEAD
• Power Charge Indifference Adjustment. The CPUC recently modified the Power Charge Indifference Adjustment (PCIA) calculation in Track 1 of its new PCIA rulemaking and plans to undertake a more holistic look at the mechanism over the next year in Track 2— the most significant review it has undertaken since its 2017 rulemaking. Expect significant impacts on CCA rates. • Reliable Clean Power Procurement Process. The CPUC has begun to move forward on its new RCPPP approach in the Integrated Resource Plan (IRP) proceeding, and a new framework likely will be adopted over the next year. The pace of this initiative could leave room for new procurement orders in the interim and will change, in yet-unanticipated ways, CCAs’ approach to procurement and meeting climate goals.
• Affordability. Affordability will continue to be top of mind with legislators and a factor in regulatory decisions. CCAs continue to focus on the affordability of their portion of the bill, developing creative solutions like prepayment bonds. Substantial new transmission and distribution investments and escalating prices for newbuild generation will heighten affordability concerns absent substantial load growth to enable spreading these costs more broadly. • Data Centers & Other Large Loads. Data-center and large-load energy needs pervade both the regulatory and legislative spheres, touching on interconnection (both transmission and distribution), forecasting, procurement planning, and carbon content. CalCCA is advocating for improved consistency and transparency in IOU load-forecasting frameworks to ensure fairness, accountability, and effective infrastructure planning that protects ratepayer interests. New policy will affect CalCCA members, focused primarily but not exclusively in the Pacific Gas & Electric service territory. • Load Shifting. Load shifting remains near the top of policy discussions in the regulatory and legislative arenas. While load shifting is a benefit to CCA customers, and CCAs are pursuing various forms of this tool, regulatory intervention increases the administrative burden substantially without necessarily producing beneficial results.

CalCCA’s events program is central to building
connection, fostering collaboration, and amplifying
the unified voice of CCAs. By bringing together
members, policymakers, and industry leaders, these
gatherings create space for dialogue, shared learning,
and innovative problem-solving. Together, they
strengthen the association’s influence and reinforce
the community that drives our mission forward.

CalCCA’s 2025 Annual Conference in April drew
over 870 industry leaders—a record turnout—under
the theme Powerful Together. Hosted in Irvine,
participants engaged in dynamic workshops,
thought-provoking panels, meaningful networking
opportunities, and first-ever program elements like
the Ideas Expo and e-bike tour. The conference
has grown into one of California’s most influential
energy forums, attracting a wide spectrum of
stakeholders—from CCA leaders and policymakers to
developers and academics—all united in a common
purpose. Its reputation for convening a broad and
engaged audience, highlighting emerging trends, and
showcasing forward-looking strategies makes it a
cornerstone event each year. Looking ahead, CalCCA’s
2026 Conference in Sacramento will feature a special
celebration of the association’s 10-year anniversary.

In January, CalCCA held a highly productive Lobby Day, bringing a 70-person delegation of CCA representatives to Sacramento. Over the course of the day, the group met with legislators, key staff, and state agency representatives in nearly 60 meetings. Discussions covered a wide range of policy and operational priorities, from improving processes to advancing innovative initiatives. As one of the most important opportunities for direct engagement with state decision-makers, Lobby Day plays a critical role in shaping understanding, building relationships, and advancing CCA priorities. The event concluded with a well-attended reception, further reinforcing CalCCA’s presence in the state policy arena.

LOBBY DAY
“The theme of ‘Powerful Together’ is just representative of what CalCCA is all about. I see it in action in every session at the annual conference, I see it in all the networking conversations and the collaboration.

It’s a real sense of community and helping each other out that is all part of CalCCA.” -Barbara Hale, Assistant General Manager, Power, SFPUC “CleanPowerSF” - 16 -

Staff Report Item 3
TO: 3CE Operations Board of Directors
FROM: Robert M. Shaw, CEO
PREPARED BY: Jerri Strickland, Director of Regulatory Affairs and Compliance SUBJECT: Adopt Resolution No. OB-2026-07 Delegating the Operations Board’s Approval of 3CE’s Integrated Resources Plan to the Chief Executive Officer DATE: May 13, 2025
RECOMMENDATION:

Adopt Resolution No. OB-2026-07 Delegating the Operations Board’s Approval of 3CE’s Integrated Resources Plan (IRP) to the Chief Executive Officer.

BACKGROUND:

The IRP is a long-term procurement plan intended to assist the Commission to determine that resources being relied on by load serving entities (“LSEs”) can ensure a reliable electricity supply that provides for the optimal integration of renewable energy in a cost-effective manner (PUC section 454.51). PUC section 454.52(b)(3) requires that a CCA IRP “be submitted to its governing board for approval and provided to the commission for certification. The Commission considers IRP filings from all LSEs, including 3CE. Due dates are established by the Commission and occur once per multi-year planning cycle.

This is the fourth cycle of the IRP program since its inception in 2017. 3CE’s practice has been to delegate approval to the CEO to improve operational efficiency and avoid unnecessary special meetings. 3CE previously submitted IRPs for the 2018–2019, 2020–2021, and 2022–2023 planning cycles, all of which received Commission certification. The current IRP submission covers the 2024–2026 planning cycle.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

The IRP compliance filing requires completion and submittal of three documents by August 10, 2026: the IRP Narrative Template, the Resource Data Template, and the Clean System Power Calculator.

Page 59 of 1037 ends

In this IRP cycle, the Commission is requiring its jurisdictional entities to use certain standardized inputs and assumptions. The required assumptions include:

1. The 2024 Load forecast as developed by the California Energy Commission.

2. Generating resources that are currently online or are contracted to come online during the IRP’s planning timeframe (2028-2045).

3. Planned resources that have not yet been built or contracted for but will be needed in the IRP’s planning timeframe to meet 3CE’s procurement goals and greenhouse gas (GHG) benchmark.

4. Resource Adequacy requirements including the monthly highest demand plus the annual planning reserve margin.

5. Achieves emissions that are equal to or less than the LSE’s proportional share of a 25MMT (million metric tons of CO2 across the electricity sector) GHG target by 2035 and an 8MMT target by 2045.

Due to 3CE’s commitment to achieving a 100% clean and renewable portfolio with a stretch goal of monthly energy balancing by 2030, 3CE anticipates that its actual portfolio plan will be significantly under 3CE’s benchmarks assigned by the Commission for the MMT planning scenario.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There are no fiscal impacts associated with this delegation of authority which is recommended only to meet the Commission compliance requirement, and any actual procurement will be approved in accordance with 3CE’s Energy Risk Management Policy.

CONCLUSION:

Given the multi-week runtime required for modeling and the need to incorporate ongoing updates to the Commission’s IRP compliance requirements, staff faces a constrained timeline to finalize the filing.

Approval of Resolution No. OB-2026-XX will provide the flexibility necessary to complete required adjustments and ensure timely submission to the Commission. Accordingly, staff recommends that the Operations Board delegate authority to approve 3CE’s IRP to the CEO.

A RESOLUTION OF THE OPERATIONS BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE CENTRAL COAST

COMMUNITY ENERGY AUTHORITYDELEGATING AUTHOITY TO THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER TO APPROVE THE 2026 INTEGRATED RESOURCE PLAN AND AUTHORIZING

ITS SUBMISSION TO THE CALIFORNIA PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION FOR

CERTIFICATION
WHEREAS, the Central Coast Community Energy Authority ("3CE") is a Joint Powers Authority established and operated pursuant to California Government Code section 6500 et seq. to study, promote, develop, conduct, operate, and manage energy programs in the California Central Coast region of Santa Cruz, Monterey, San Benito, Santa Barbara Counties, and certain cities within San Luis Obispo County, and WHEREAS, Public Utilities Code section 454.51 requires that all Californian Load Serving Entities (“LSE”) are required to produce and submit to the California Public Utilities Commission (the “Commission”) an Integrated Resources Plan (“IRP”); and WHEREAS, Public Utilities Code section 454.52(b)(3) requires that a Community Choice Aggregator IRP “be submitted to its governing board for approval and provided to the commission for certification;” and
WHEREAS, the Commission has established a deadline for submission of the IRP, currently set for August 10, 2026, which may be modified; and WHEREAS, 3CE is a Californian LSE, and a CCA, and is therefore required to submit an approved IRP to the CPUC for certification; and
WHEREAS, 3CE anticipates that its actual portfolio plan will be significantly under either of the Commission’s required planning scenarios.

NOW, THEREFORE, the Operations Board of Directors of the Central Coast Community Energy Authority does hereby resolve, determine, and order as follows:

Staff Report Item 4
TO: 3CE Operations Board of Directors
FROM: Robert M. Shaw, Chief Executive Officer
PREPARED BY: Heather Vowell, Board Clerk
SUBJECT: Adopt Resolution No. OB-2026-08 Authorizing Teleconferencing as an Eligible Multijurisdictional Body and Adopting a Remote Access Disruption Policy DATE: May 27, 2026
RECOMMENDATION:

Adopt Resolution No. OB-2026-08 Authorizing Teleconferencing as an Eligible Multijurisdictional Body and Adopting a Remote Access Disruption Policy.

BACKGROUND:

Senate Bill 707 (SB 707), signed by the Governor on October 3, 2025 and effective January 1, 2026, amended the Brown Act to reorganize and expand teleconferencing provisions, including adding Government Code sections 54953.8 through 54953.8.7. Among these, Government Code section 54953.8.7 authorizes an “eligible multijurisdictional body” to conduct teleconference meetings under specified conditions.

Central Coast Community Energy (3CE) qualifies as an “eligible multijurisdictional body” because it is a legislative body of a joint powers authority, the membership of which is appointed, and which is subject to the Brown Act.

The provisions of Government Code section 54953.8.7 are operative from January 1, 2026, through December 31, 2029.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

Before Operations Board members can invoke the section 54953.8.7 exemption, SB 707 requires 3CE to first adopt a resolution at a regular meeting in open session authorizing use of teleconferencing as an “eligible multijurisdictional body.” The accompanying Resolution satisfies this prerequisite.

Page 63 of 1037 ends

In addition to complying with the general teleconferencing requirements of Government Code section 54953.8 (which apply to all legislative bodies using alternative teleconferencing), the Operations Board must satisfy the following requirements specific to eligible multijurisdictional bodies under section 54953.8.7:
• Adoption of Resolution: The eligible multijurisdictional body must have adopted a resolution authorizing use of teleconferencing pursuant to section 54953.8.7 at a regular meeting in open session. This Resolution satisfies that requirement.
• Quorum In-Person: At least a quorum of Operations Board members must participate from one or more physical locations that are open to the public and within the boundaries of the territory over which 3CE exercises jurisdiction.
• Compensated Members Must Appear In Person: Any Operations Board member who receives compensation for their service on the Operations Board (excluding reimbursement for actual and necessary expenses) must participate from a physical location that is open to the public and may not attend remotely.
• Remote Participation – Agenda Identification: The agenda for any teleconferenced meeting must identify each Operations Board member who plans to participate remotely. • Remote Participation – Audio-Visual Technology: Any member participating remotely must use both audio and visual technology.
• 20-Mile Distance Requirement: A member may only participate remotely if their remote location is more than 20 miles each way from any physical meeting location that is open to the public and within 3CE’s jurisdiction.
• Disclosure of Persons Present at Remote Location (Gov. Code § 54953.8(e)): Each member participating remotely must publicly disclose at the meeting, before any action is taken, whether any other individuals 18 years of age or older are present in the room at the remote location with the member, and the general nature of the member’s relationship with those individuals.

The accompanying Resolution also incorporates — directly within its operative provisions — the procedural requirements applicable to all alternative teleconference meetings under Government Code section 54953.8, including public call-in or internet-based access options, roll-call voting, minute-keeping requirements, and the disclosure requirement of Government Code section 54953.8(e). Critically, the Resolution now also contains 3CE’s Remote Access Disruption Policy in full, as required by Government Code section 54953.4. By embedding the Policy within the Resolution itself, the Operations Board adopts both authorizations in a single action, ensuring clear legal traceability and streamlined governance.

Page 64 of 1037 ends

Remote Access Disruption Policy (incorporated into Resolution Section 8): Government Code section 54953.4 requires that any eligible legislative body providing remote public access adopt a policy governing what steps staff must take to restore remote access in the event of a disruption and establishes conditions under which the Board may reconvene open session without remote access after good-faith restoration efforts of at least one hour. The Policy incorporated into the Resolution establishes that the 3CE Clerk of the Board (or designee) shall continuously monitor remote access during meetings, immediately notify the Chair upon any disruption, and document all restoration efforts. If access cannot be restored within the minimum one-hour period, the Board may, by roll-call vote, make findings and resume open session in accordance with the statute.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact from the recommendation.

CONCLUSION:

The Operations Board’s approval of this action formally authorizes 3CE to use teleconferencing as an eligible multijurisdictional body under Government Code section 54953.8.7, effective through December 31, 2029. This will allow individual Operations Board members who are located more than 20 miles from a physical meeting location to participate remotely via audio-visual technology on up to two occasions per year, without requiring a quorum of members to be physically present at every location.

Because 3CE’s Operations Board draws appointed representatives from member agencies across Monterey, San Benito, San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, and Santa Cruz counties, its members are regularly required to travel significant distances to attend meetings. Adoption of this Resolution reduces that travel burden while preserving full public access and transparency: a quorum of Board members will remain physically present at a publicly accessible location within 3CE’s jurisdiction, and the public will continue to have both in-person and remote options to observe and comment on all proceedings.

The Resolution also satisfies the statutory requirement of Government Code section 54953.4 by embedding 3CE’s Remote Access Disruption Policy directly within its operative text. This integrated approach ensures that 3CE’s teleconferencing authorization and its disruption response procedures are adopted together, are equally binding, and can be amended only by subsequent Board resolution.

RESOLUTION OF THE OPERATIONS BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF CENTRAL COAST COMMUNITY ENERGY (3CE)

AUTHORIZING THE USE OF TELECONFERENCING FOR OPERATIONS BOARD MEETINGS AS AN ELIGIBLE MULTIJURISDICTIONAL BODY PURSUANT TO GOVERNMENT CODE SECTION 54953.8.7 AND ADOPTING A REMOTE ACCESS DISRUPTION POLICY PURSUANT TO GOVERNMENT CODE SECTION 54953.4 WHEREAS, the Ralph M. Brown Act (Gov. Code, § 54950 et seq.) requires that all meetings of the legislative body of a local agency be open and public and permits the use of teleconferencing for public meetings subject to specified conditions;
WHEREAS, Senate Bill 707 (Chapter 327, Statutes of 2025), signed by the Governor on October 3, 2025 and effective January 1, 2026, reorganized and expanded Brown Act teleconferencing provisions by adding, among other provisions, Government Code sections 54953.8 through 54953.8.7, which establish standardized procedures for legislative bodies to use teleconferencing while ensuring public access and transparency;
WHEREAS, Government Code section 54953.8.7, operative from January 1, 2026, through December 31, 2029, authorizes an “eligible multijurisdictional body” to conduct teleconference meetings pursuant to Government Code section 54953.8, provided it first adopts a resolution at a regular meeting in open session authorizing such use and complies with additional requirements set forth in section 54953.8.7;
WHEREAS, Government Code section 54953.8.7, subdivision (b)(2)(B), defines “eligible multijurisdictional body” to include a legislative body of a joint powers agency; WHEREAS, Central Coast Community Energy (“3CE”) is a joint powers authority organized under the Joint Exercise of Powers Act (Gov. Code, § 6500 et seq.); WHEREAS, 3CE was established pursuant to a Joint Powers Agreement, as amended from time to time, and its Operations Board of Directors is a legislative body composed of appointed representatives from 3CE member agencies;
WHEREAS, 3CE’s Operations Board of Directors therefore constitutes an “eligible multijurisdictional body” within the meaning of Government Code section 54953.8.7; WHEREAS, Government Code section 54953.8 establishes the general procedural requirements applicable to all alternative teleconference meetings conducted under sections 54953.8.1 through 54953.8.7, including requirements for public call-in or internet-based access, public comment rights, roll-call voting, and minute-keeping;
WHEREAS, Government Code section 54953.8, subdivision (e), requires that a member of a legislative body who participates in a teleconference meeting from a remote location shall publicly disclose at the meeting, before any action is taken, whether any other individuals 18 years of age or older are present in the room at the remote location with the member, and the general nature of the member’s relationship with those individuals;
WHEREAS, Government Code section 54953.4 requires that when an eligible legislative body provides remote public access to its meetings, it must adopt a policy establishing the procedures that will be followed in the event of a disruption to telephonic or internet service, including minimum good-faith restoration efforts and the conditions under which the body may reconvene open session without remote access; and
WHEREAS, the Operations Board finds that authorizing the use of teleconferencing under Government Code section 54953.8.7 and adopting the Remote Access Disruption Policy required by Government Code section 54953.4 will enhance 3CE’s ability to conduct public business efficiently while ensuring continued public access and participation.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the 3CE Operations Board of Directors as follows:

Section 1. Recitals
The above recitals are true and correct.

Section 2. Authorization of Teleconferencing
This Resolution is adopted pursuant to Government Code section 54953.8.7 and authorizes the Operations Board to use teleconferencing as an eligible multijurisdictional body, subject to compliance with Government Code section 54953.8 and all of the following additional requirements specific to eligible multijurisdictional bodies:
• Quorum In-Person (Gov. Code § 54953.8.7(a)(2)): At least a quorum of the members of the Operations Board shall participate from one or more physical locations that are open to the public and within the boundaries of the territory over which 3CE exercises jurisdiction. • Compensated Members Must Appear In Person (Gov. Code § 54953.8.7(a)(3)): An Operations Board member who receives compensation for their service on the Operations Board shall participate from a physical location that is open to the public. For purposes of this paragraph, “compensation” does not include reimbursement for actual and necessary expenses.
• Agenda Identification of Remote Participants (Gov. Code § 54953.8.7(a)(4)(A)): The agenda for any teleconferenced Operations Board meeting must identify each Operations Board member who plans to participate remotely.
• Audio-Visual Technology Required (Gov. Code § 54953.8.7(a)(4)(B)): An Operations Board member participating remotely must participate through both audio and visual technology. • 20-Mile Distance Requirement (Gov. Code § 54953.8.7(a)(5)): An Operations Board member may not participate in a meeting remotely pursuant to this Resolution unless the location from which the member participates is more than 20 miles each way from any physical location of the meeting that is open to the public and within 3CE’s jurisdiction. • Two-Meeting Annual Limit (Gov. Code § 54953.8.7(a)(6)): Because the 3CE Operations Board regularly meets once per month or less, an Operations Board member may not participate remotely pursuant to this Resolution at more than two meetings per calendar year. For purposes of this limit, a “meeting” means any number of meetings of the Operations Board that begin on the same calendar day.

Section 3. General Teleconferencing Compliance
The Operations Board shall comply with all general procedural requirements of Government Code section 54953.8 applicable to alternative teleconference meetings, including without limitation:
• Providing the public with a call-in or internet-based option to attend and provide public comment at teleconferenced meetings.

Section 4. Reasonable Accommodation
Nothing in this Resolution shall be construed to limit an Operations Board member’s right to participate remotely in Operations Board meetings as a reasonable accommodation for a disability pursuant to Government Code section 54953, subdivision (c).

Section 5. Operative Period
This Resolution shall remain in effect from the date of its adoption through December 31, 2029, consistent with the operative period of Government Code section 54953.8.7, unless earlier repealed or superseded.

Section 6. CEQA
The adoption of this Resolution is not a “project” subject to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines sections 15378(b)(2) and 15061(b)(3), as authorization of teleconferencing procedures constitutes general policy and procedure making which can be seen with certainty to have no potential for causing a significant effect on the environment.

Section 7. Effective Date
This Resolution shall take effect immediately upon its adoption.

Section 8. Remote Access Disruption Policy
Pursuant to Government Code section 54953.4, the Operations Board hereby adopts the following Remote Access Disruption Policy, which shall govern all 3CE Operations Board meetings at which remote public access via a two-way telephonic service or two-way audiovisual platform is provided:

8.1 Purpose and Scope
The purpose of this Policy is to establish procedures that the 3CE Operations Board will follow in the event of a telephonic or internet service disruption that prevents remote access during a Ralph M. Brown Act meeting, consistent with the requirements of Government Code section 54953.4.

This Policy applies to all meetings of the Operations Board for which public attendance via a two-way telephonic service or a two-way audiovisual platform is provided in accordance with Government Code section 54953.4, subdivision (b)(1).

8.2 Definitions
For purposes of this Policy, “Board” means the 3CE Operations Board of Directors; “meeting” shall have the meaning stated in Government Code section 54952.2(a); “two-way audiovisual platform” and “two-way telephonic service” shall have the meanings stated in Government Code section 54953.4(e)(3); and “Clerk” means the 3CE Clerk of the Board or their designee.

8.3 Monitoring and Immediate Response
The Clerk shall continuously monitor each meeting to ensure that remote access is functional. At minimum, at least one device shall be present and visible to the Clerk throughout the meeting, displaying a live feed of the webcast or equivalent monitoring tool confirming continuous operation of remote access.

Immediately upon any disruption to remote access, the Clerk shall notify the Chair of the Operations Board. The Chair shall interrupt proceedings (using a gavel if necessary) and announce that remote access has been disrupted and that proceedings must pause. The Chair may allow a brief pause, during which no discussion or action may occur, to assess whether remote access can be quickly re-established. The Chair shall then announce that open session is in recess.

Page 68 of 1037 ends

8.4 Closed Session During Recess
During an open session recess required by a remote access disruption, the Operations Board may convene in closed session for any item properly agendized for closed session at that meeting. If the Board met in closed session during the recess, it shall announce any reportable actions taken in closed session prior to resuming open session, as required by the Brown Act.

8.5 Good-Faith Restoration Efforts
During the open session recess, the Clerk shall continuously and diligently work to restore remote access. Good-faith restoration efforts shall include, at a minimum, all of the following:
• Restarting any services, software, or equipment used to facilitate remote access, including any computers used to access those services.
• Attempting to access the remote access service or tool from a secondary or backup device. • Checking all physical network and electrical connections that may be responsible for the disruption.
• Reviewing the service status of the remote access platform (e.g., through the vendor’s status page or support portal).
• Resetting local network connections, including routers or switches as applicable. • Contacting technical support for the remote access platform or the applicable internet or telecommunications service provider.
• Documenting each step taken and the time at which it was taken, for inclusion in the meeting record.

8.6 Resumption Upon Restoration of Remote Access
Upon restoration of telephonic or internet service and the related tools necessary for remote access, the Clerk shall immediately restore remote access and announce to remote attendees that service has been restored. If the Board is currently in closed session, the Clerk shall announce to remote attendees that the Board is in closed session and that open session will resume immediately after the closed session concludes. If the Board is not in closed session, the Clerk shall announce that open session will resume immediately upon reestablishment of a quorum in the Board meeting room.

8.7 Resumption If Remote Access Cannot Be Restored
Following a disruption and the required recess of open session, the Operations Board, through the Clerk, must make good-faith efforts as described in Section 8.5 for a minimum of one (1) hour to restore telephonic or internet service.

If, after no less than one hour of such good-faith efforts, remote access cannot be restored, the Chair may call the Operations Board back into open session. Immediately upon reconvening, the Chair shall:
• Announce that remote access could not be restored despite good-faith efforts made in accordance with this Policy for no less than one hour;
• Describe the specific restoration efforts taken by the Clerk; and • State that Government Code section 54953.4 and this Policy permit the Operations Board to resume open session without remote access upon the Board making both of the following findings by roll-call vote:
◦ That good-faith efforts to restore telephonic or internet service have been made in accordance with this Policy; and

Page 69 of 1037 ends

◦ That the public interest in continuing the meeting outweighs the public interest in remote public access.

Any member of the Operations Board may then move to adopt these findings and resume open session. The Board shall take a roll-call vote on the motion. If the motion passes by majority vote, open session may resume in accordance with the posted agenda. If no motion is made or the motion does not pass, open session must immediately end. Prior to hearing any open session items, if the Board met in closed session during the recess, it shall announce any reportable closed session actions as required by the Brown Act.

8.8 Disruptions Caused by Members of the Public
If a disruption to meeting proceedings is caused by the conduct of members of the public (whether participating in person or remotely) rather than by a technical failure of remote access, the Chair shall address the disruption pursuant to Government Code section 54957.9. The Chair may order removal of disruptive individuals, including by muting or removing remote participants from the teleconference platform, and may declare a recess or adjourn the meeting to a specified time and place pursuant to Government Code section 54955 if orderly conduct cannot otherwise be maintained.

8.9 Documentation
The Clerk shall document all disruptions to remote access and any disruptions caused by members of the public, together with all actions taken in response, in the minutes of the meeting. The record shall include the time of the disruption, the time restoration efforts began, each step taken to restore service, and the time at which open session was reconvened or adjourned.

8.10 Amendment
This Remote Access Disruption Policy may be amended from time to time by resolution of the Operations Board adopted at a regular or special meeting. Staff shall periodically review this Policy and recommend updates as warranted by changes in applicable law or 3CE’s technology infrastructure.

Staff Report Item 5
TO: 3CE Operations Board of Directors
FROM: Robert M. Shaw, Chief Executive Officer
PREPARED BY: Faith Yorba, Energy Programs Analyst
SUBJECT: Authorize CEO to Execute an Agreement with Optony, Inc. to provide transportation electrification technical assistance services for a total not to exceed amount of $2,430,000 with a two-year term ending on September 30, 2028
DATE: May 27, 2026
RECOMMENDATION:

This recommends that the 3CE Operations Board of Directors authorize the CEO to execute an agreement with Optony, Inc. to provide transportation electrification technical assistance services for a total not-to-exceed amount of $2,430,000 with a two-year term ending on September 30, 2028.

BACKGROUND:

Transportation represents the largest source of greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) on the Central Coast. 3CE’s Energy Programs portfolio currently includes two programs that provide varying levels of technical assistance to support 3CE’s nonresidential customers in electrification planning and implementation. 3CE’s Plan Your Fleet (PYF) program is open to Member Agencies and supported by Optony, Inc. 3CE’s Electrify Your Ride (EYR) Commercial Concierge Service is open to commercial and multifamily customers and supported by Frontier Energy, Inc.

In May 2022, the 3CE Operations Board authorized the CEO to execute an agreement with Frontier Energy, Inc. (Frontier) to provide EV charging technical assistance for 3CE’s commercial and multifamily customers. This agreement supported the launch of 3CE’s EYR Commercial “Concierge Service.” The contract has been amended three times since that approval by the Operations Board of Directors – on September 13, 2023, August 14, 2024, and January 25, 2025. Currently, the contract has a term extension through September 30, 2026.

Page 71 of 1037 ends

On April 12, 2023, the 3CE Operations Board authorized the CEO to execute an agreement with Optony, Inc. (Optony) to provide technical assistance services to support 3CE Member Agencies’ fleet electrification efforts. This agreement supported the launch of 3CE’s PYF program and EV charger incentives. Since approval, the contract has been amended once by the Operations Board of Directors, on May 8, 2024, and currently has a term extension through September 30, 2027.

On January 12, 2026, in an effort to consolidate external vendor contracts for technical assistance, 3CE launched a Request for Proposals (RFP) seeking qualified consultants to expand fleet planning and EV charging infrastructure development services for 3CE customers. The RFP scope included EV fleet analysis assistance and plan development, along with EV charging infrastructure evaluation and engineering designs for fleet, workplace, and publicly available projects.

Following a competitive RFP process, 3CE selected Optony to implement 3CE’s new EV Launchpad Technical Assistance program. Based on proposal strength, Optony was identified as best positioned to successfully deliver the expanded scope of services and provide high-quality technical assistance services. Optony will serve as a prime consultant, supported by ICF International, Inc. as the multifamily engagement lead, and McCalmont Engineering for Professional Engineer (PE)stamped electrical site designs. Member Agencies that previously worked with Optony through 3CE’s PYF program have provided strong positive feedback regarding Optony’s technical expertise and ability to meet a wide range of needs.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

While both the PYF and EYR technical assistance programs have experienced increased engagement, fewer than 50% of PYF participants and no EYR Commercial Concierge participants have implemented their electrification projects. Programmatic changes can help to address the barriers to implementation experienced by 3CE’s Member Agency, public agency, commercial, and multifamily customers.

Over the past year, 3CE staff met with different customer groups to understand the challenges they face in adopting electrification technology. Through this process, 3CE identified that in addition to limited staff capacity and in-house expertise, 3CE customers have a range of diverse project needs that are not supported by the current program. In the coming fiscal year, to improve technical assistance support and accelerate electrification, 3CE plans to consolidate PYF and EYR Commercial Concierge Service into a new, comprehensive technical assistance program as seen in Table 1. The EV Launchpad Technical Assistance program will:
 Expand technical assistance to public charging sites;  Customize assistance for individual public agencies;
 Provide more robust planning services for commercial customers; and  Customize planning assistance for multifamily customers.

Table 1: Current and New Program Scope Comparison
The new program, EV Launchpad, will offer a complete menu of services, including:
 Fleet Replacement Plans: Fleet inventories, compliance requirements, and transition plan inclusive of available vehicles, internal timelines, and available funding;  EV Charging Infrastructure Plans: Site assessments, preliminary suitability analysis, and recommendations for prioritizing EV charging projects based on the number of chargers, including fleet, workplace, public, and mixed use;
 Engineering/Site Plans: Basis of design and construction documents to be used during the installing bidding process;
 Outreach and Education: Tailored to each customer type;  Funding Assistance and Application Support: Applicable to 3CE programs.

All program participants will follow a similar customer journey, with varying levels of technical assistance offered depending on individual needs. Along with a final report, customers will receive an interactive dashboard that will allow them to adjust data inputs and track various metrics including cost benefits, GHG emissions, and managed charging usage.

The base annual NTE amount in the proposed Optony agreement is equivalent to 3CE’s current technical assistance budget. The current fiscal year expenditures for technical assistance (including both member agency and commercial offerings) is $775,000 – the same amount proposed in the agreement as Optony’s base annual NTE. The option of additional technical assistance services for $425,000 would only be approved if additional budget is allocated through the agency’s annual budget process. 3CE’s EV Launchpad Technical Assistance program is expected to launch October 1, 2026, and will be open to non-residential customers, including Member Agencies, other public agencies, commercial, and multifamily customers. The proposed comprehensive technical assistance will be offered in addition to 3CE’s existing rebates through Charge Your Fleet and Electrify Your Fleet for Member Agencies, and Electrify Your Ride for public agency, commercial, and multifamily customers.

Page 73 of 1037 ends

FISCAL IMPACT:

The fiscal impact of the technical assistance implementation agreement with Optony, Inc. will not exceed $2,430,000 over the two-year term of the agreement.

Current fiscal year expenditures are within the FY 2025-26 budget and future expenses will be proposed through the agency’s annual budget process.

CONCLUSION:

The Operations Board’s approval of the technical assistance agreement with Optony, Inc. will allow 3CE to provide comprehensive assistance to public agencies, including public charging sites for Member Agencies, and enhance planning and development assistance for commercial and multifamily customers.

Execution of the agreement supports 3CE’s goal to reduce GHG emissions through fleet electrification and promote EV adoption through expanded availability of public charging infrastructure across the Central Coast.

Staff Report Item 6
TO: 3CE Operations Board of Directors
FROM: Robert M. Shaw, Chief Executive Officer
PREPARED BY: Emmanuel Gutierrez, Director of Data and IT SUBJECT: Approve the 3CE Artificial Intelligence Policy and Authorize the Chief Executive Officer to execute necessary changes needed to utilize Artificial Intelligence in accordance with this Policy
DATE: May 27, 2026
RECOMMENDATION:

This memorandum recommends that the Operations Board approve the 3CE Artificial Intelligence Policy and authorize the Chief Executive Officer to update as necessary to ensure the policy remains contemporary and operationally relevant.

BACKGROUND:

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly changing the way organizations of all types drive innovation, customer service, and efficiency on behalf of their customers and stakeholders. AI tools can provide responsible opportunities for many use cases that would increase the productivity of our employees, and overall service excellence provided to customers:
 Rapid analysis of vast amounts of unstructured data, material, and information.  Complex, predictive, and real-time modeling, forecasting, and management.  Rapid and effective customer self-service, using chat-bots and other technology specifically trained on 3CE-specifc publicly available data.
 Near real-time document review, preparation, and synthesis.  Rapid prototyping and development of internal tools, customer programming, and other applications unique to 3CE.

Given the rapid pace of AI evolution, operational best practices at other CCAs and public agencies has

Page 93 of 1037 ends

been to adopt an Artificial Intelligence Policy, governing and providing guardrails for employees, contractors, and other stakeholders at 3CE, with the intent of ensuring responsible and safe use of AI, while also unlocking our employees’ ability to embrace the technology to improve day-to-day workflows and tasks.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

The Attached AI Policy AI Policy provides a structured framework that empowers responsible innovation, protects customer and agency data, and establishes clear governance so AI can be leveraged confidently and compliantly across the organization. Key pillars of the AI Policy include  Public Transparency & Trust: Establishes clear ethical standards for AI use that prioritize fairness, accountability, and human oversight. Protects customer data, sensitive information, and regulatory compliance to maintain public confidence.  Communications and Clarity: Defines what AI is, who may use it, and what “Responsible Use” requires. Provides staff, vendors, and contractors with clear rules so AI adoption is thoughtful, consistent, and aligned with 3CE’s mission.  Internal Alignment and Accountability: Assigns clear ownership for AI systems, including required human oversight and designated bot owners. Clarifies the roles of Data & IT, departments, and General Counsel in governance and compliance.  Governance and Oversight: Requires training, structured tool approval, documentation, audits, security standards, and ongoing monitoring. Ensures AI use is reviewed, approved, and continuously evaluated rather than used informally or inconsistently.  Identification of Risks and Responsible Innovation: Encourages productivity, customer programming, modeling, use of energy management systems and other innovation while prohibiting harmful, deceptive, biased, or unlawful uses. Creates structured guardrails so 3CE can leverage AI safely.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Staff Report Item 7
TO: 3CE Operations Board of Directors
FROM: Robert M. Shaw, Chief Executive Officer
PREPARED BY: Leo Kim, Director of Power Supply Resources SUBJECT: Authorize the CEO to execute a) First Amendment to the Renewable Power Purchase Agreement with SunZia Wind North LLC; and b) First Amendment to the Renewable Power Purchase Agreement with SunZia Wind South LLC, each of which clarifies a technical issues regarding the point of interconnection into the CAISO and how project phasing is accounted for in REC generation, with no change to the Not-to-Exceed amount
DATE: May 27, 2026
RECOMMENDATION:

This recommends the Operations Board authorize the CEO to execute, in a form similar to that attached and approved by the General Counsel:
a) First Amendment to the Renewable Power Purchase Agreement (“PPA”) with SunZia Wind North LLC; and
b) First Amendment to the Renewable Power Purchase Agreement (“PPA”) with SunZia Wind South LLC, each of which clarifies a technical issues regarding the point of interconnection into the CAISO and how project phasing is accounted for in REC generation.

Neither of these amendments would change the previously approved not-to-exceed amounts.

BACKGROUND:

At its November 2023 meeting, the Operations Board approved a single Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) with SunZia Wind PowerCo LLC in an amount not to exceed $715,000,000 for renewable energy and associated attributes from a 3,515 MW project located across several counties in New Mexico. 3CE contracted to receive 205 MW from the SunZia Wind project beginning in September 2026. As part of

Page 101 of 1037 ends

this approval, SunZia Wind PowerCo was granted the ability to bifurcate, or transition the project, into two replacement PPAs with 3CE at a future date to facilitate project financing with no changes to the approved not-to-exceed amount.

Given the uniqueness of the interconnection efforts, bringing the wind from New Mexico into California via the new SunZia transmission line, it was anticipated that this PPA would require certain administrative changes as the development team responded to entitlement, transmission, and financing needs.

In November 2024, the CEO executed the Amended and Restated PPA (A&R PPA). This A&R PPA was necessary to convert the SunZia Wind project, located in New Mexico, into a renewable resource under the purview of California Independent System Operator (“CAISO”), so that it could be operated in the same way as an in-state resource when it comes to delivery of its energy, renewable energy certificates, and resource adequacy benefits to 3CE. The A&R PPA did not change 3CE’s not-to-exceed obligations.

In May 2025, the CEO executed a First Amendment to the above A&R PPA, enabling 3CE to have greater assurance of realizing our contracted resource adequacy benefits based on guidance from the CAISO.

This First Amendment did not change 3CE’s not-to-exceed obligations.

In September 2025, SunZia Wind PowerCo exercised its right to bifurcate the single PPA into two replacement PPAs, one with SunZia Wind North LLC and one with SunZia Wind South LLC. This bifurcation of one PPA into two replacement PPAs did not change 3CE’s not-to-exceed obligations.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

The Operations Board’s approval of the recommended First Amendments to the PPAs with SunZia Wind South LLC and SunZia Wind North LLC, respectively, clarifies a technical issue regarding the point of interconnection into the CAISO and further clarifies the Seller’s obligations around Renewable Energy Certificate (“REC”) creation within the Western Regional Energy Generation System (“WREGIS”) protocols.

The POI issue stems from the new transmission line that was developed as part of the project to bring renewable energy from the New Mexico project into California. The original agreement specified the point of delivery at the California border; however, the new transmission line introduced the possibility that curtailments could occur where the projects connect into the line. This created a gap in the PPAs that the proposed amendments seek to close without causing financial harm to 3CE.

The WREGIS-related changes help address issues related to the project coming online in different phases and specifies how test-energy that qualifies for Renewable Energy Credits will be assigned to offtakers

Page 102 of 1037 ends

through the WREGIS system.

These proposed First Amendments will not change the material terms of the existing PPAs.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no fiscal impact to these two proposed First Amendments to the SunZia Wind North LLC and SunZia Wind South LLC PPAs.

CONCLUSION:
3CE recommends approval of these First Amendments to improve the operational and contract administration of these projects once they become operational.

Staff Report Item 8
TO: 3CE Operations Board of Directors
FROM: Robert M. Shaw, Chief Executive Officer
PREPARED BY: Leo Kim, Director of Power Supply
SUBJECT: (1) Ratify of CEO-executed Amendment to existing Scheduling Coordination Agreement between 3CE and Tenaska Power Services Co., which added several 3CE generating and/or energy storage projects to Agreement in order to receive scheduling services; (2) approve and Authorize the CEO to execute any subsequent amendments for the addition of generating and/or energy storage resources; (3) approve the Fixed Monthly Fee Schedule in Exhibit A to be adjusted annually pursuant to Section 5.2 of the original agreement DATE: May 27, 2026
RECOMMENDATION:

This memorandum recommends that the Operations Board (1) ratify the CEO-executed Scheduling Coordination Agreement Amendment between 3CE and Tenaska Power Services Co. (“TPS”), which added several 3CE generating and/or energy storage projects to the Agreement in order to receive scheduling services; (2) Approve and Authorize the CEO to execute any subsequent amendments for the addition of generating and/or energy storage resources, and; 3) approve the Fixed Monthly Fee Schedule in Exhibit A to be adjusted annually pursuant to Section 5.2 of the original agreement.

BACKGROUND:

In March 2024, the Operations Board approved a Scheduling Coordination Agreement between 3CE and Tenaska Power Services Co. (“TPS”) to provide scheduling services for operational 3CE clean and renewable projects. In August 2025, the Operations Board approved an Amended and Restated Agreement to include battery optimization services, extend the term through the end of 2026, and allow the agreement to be extended for successive one (1) year terms.

TPS, as a Scheduling Coordinator service provider, serves as the official interface between a generating or energy storage facility with the California Independent System Operator (“CAISO”). CAISO requires all

Page 116 of 1037 ends

resources participating in the energy markets to be scheduled through a certified scheduling coordinator, such as TPS, who can directly bid or self-schedule resources (as well as handle energy settlements). The Scheduling Coordinator must meet all the requirements of the CAISO, such as having 24 hours/7 days a week scheduling desk in constant communication with CAISO.

TPS, as 3CE’s Scheduling Coordinator, helps ensure that 3CE maximizes the value of our online renewable and energy storage contracts within the CAISO energy markets by providing scheduling and outage management, optimization, and monitoring services.

TPS is a wholly owned subsidiary of Tenaska, an energy company headquartered in Omaha, Nebraska with several offices throughout North America. TPS is an established and proven provider of scheduling and settlement services for generating and energy storage resources within CAISO, operating since 1997.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS:

TPS service fees are provided based on a start-up and fixed monthly fee for each generating and/or energy storage resource.

In March 2024, 3CE included a total of seven renewable resources (two geothermal, one wind, and four solar + storage) in the original agreement. The August Amended and Restated agreement included battery optimization services and allowed for additional resources, however it did not specifically delegate the ability to add additional resources to the agreement to the CEO.

It was necessary, due to administrative deadlines at the CAISO, for the CEO to execute an amendment to the contract in April 2026 to add seven more resources to the contract, as two were coming online in May and June 2026 and the rest later this year. Thus, 3CE staff are seeking the Board’s ratification of this CEO-executed amendment.

Furthermore, when additional contracted resources need to be added to this agreement, 3CE staff are seeking authorization and approval for the CEO to execute any subsequent amendments to add those additional generating and/or energy storage resources.

FISCAL IMPACT:

With the addition of seven (7) more generating and/or energy storage resources receiving scheduling coordinator services from TPS, it will bring the total number to fourteen (14), with a revised monthly cost of approximately $81,000 per month, as opposed to a prior monthly cost of about $35,000 per month. Fees are not invoiced until each resource begins deliveries.

Page 117 of 1037 ends

3CE staff currently expect the annual costs for the 14 resources to be the following:

Fiscal Year Expected Annual Fees
2025-26 $510,615
2026-27 $970,428
2027-28 $989,837
Actual costs under this agreement may change as the fees incurred are based on the date each resource begins deliveries and the type of services received (scheduling/outage management, optimization, or monitoring).

Staff intend to manage and control costs under this agreement through the annual budget process.

CONCLUSION:

Ratification of Amendment and Approval for CEO to execute any future amendments to add more generating and/or energy storage resources will enable the economic and compliant operation of 3CE’s contracted resources.

Execution Version
1 AMENDED AND RESTATED SCHEDULING COORDINATOR AGREEMENT This Amended and Restated Scheduling Coordinator Agreement (“Agreement”) is executed on _____________.2025 (“Effective Date”) between Central Coast Community Energy, a California joint powers authority (“3CE”) and Tenaska Power Services Co. (“TPS”), a Nebraska corporation. 3CE and TPS are also hereinafter referred to in this Agreement individually as “Party” and collectively as the “Parties”.

This Agreement consists of and is governed by the Base Agreement and the General Terms and Conditions attached hereto, together with attached exhibits incorporated by reference in this Agreement.

RECITALS
WHEREAS, TPS and 3CE entered into (i) that certain Scheduling Coordinator Agreement dated March 13, 2024 (“Original Agreement”), with a commencement date thereunder of June 1, 2024 (the “Original Commencement Date”), (ii) that certain Letter Agreement for Optimization Services dated May 28, 2024 (as amended) (the “Optimization Letter Agreement” and together with the Original Agreement, the “Prior Agreements”);
WHEREAS, 3CE directly or indirectly owns, controls and/or has power purchase and energy storage agreements (“PPAs”) with battery-powered energy storage resources (“Storage Resource(s)”) and certain solar generating facilities (“Solar Resource(s)”) located within the CAISO and WECC markets as described further in Exhibit A hereto (the “Resource(s)”), and participates in the CAISO markets (the “Project”);
WHEREAS, TPS is in the business of providing Scheduling Coordinator services, including scheduling Energy, load, Capacity, Ancillary Services, and managing congestion revenue rights from generating facilities through the markets operated by CAISO; WHEREAS, 3CE desires TPS to provide certain Scheduling Coordinator Services and other services for the Resources and Services, as defined below and as set forth in this Agreement, in each case, in accordance with the terms and conditions as set forth herein; WHEREAS, TPS desires to perform certain Scheduling Coordinator Services and other services for the Resources and Services, in each case, on the terms and conditions as set forth herein;
WHEREAS, the Parties desire to amend and restate the Original Agreement in its entirety, as provided herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, 3CE and TPS enter into this Agreement to amend and restate in its entirety the Original Agreement, under which TPS shall provide 3CE with the Services described herein and shall serve as the Scheduling Coordinator with CAISO for the Resources and Transactions as described herein. Accordingly, for and in consideration of the premises, together with other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by each Party, 3CE and TPS agree as follows:

Execution Version
2 BASE AGREEMENT

1. DESIGNATION
Except as provided in this Section 1, no Party will be an agent, partner, joint venturer, or legal representative of any other Party for any purpose whatsoever, and no Party is authorized to assume or create any obligation, liability, or responsibility, expressed or implied, on behalf of or in the name of any other Party, or to bind any other Party to any Third Party in any manner whatsoever; provided, however, that 3CE authorizes TPS to act, and TPS agrees to act, subject to the terms of this Agreement, as 3CE’s exclusive provider of the Services for the Resources.

The Parties shall conduct their respective duties, obligations, and operations related to this Agreement in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Governing Rules, and Prudent Industry Practice.

The relationship of 3CE, on the one hand, with TPS, on the other hand, as set forth in this Agreement is one of an independent contractor.

2. SCHEDULING COORDINATOR SERVICES

2.1 SCID Services. TPS has obtained, or shall promptly obtain upon execution of this Agreement, an SCID that will be unique to the Resources, and TPS represents and warrants that such SCID has not been previously used and shall not be used in connection with any other transactions or Resources. TPS shall use such SCID only in respect of Transactions for 3CE and the Resources, and not for any other transaction, resources or purpose. TPS shall be responsible for satisfying the CAISO credit requirements under the Governing Rules, including posting all required security. TPS shall pass through to 3CE the actual SCID cost assessed by CAISO (“CAISO SCID Fee”) for such SCID. For the avoidance of doubt, the SCID previously obtained by TPS pursuant to the Original Agreement with respect to the Resources identified on Exhibit A as of the Effective Date shall continue to be used by TPS under this Agreement with respect to such Resources, and no additional CAISO SCID Fee shall apply as of the Effective Date.

The Parties understand and agree that it is 3CE’s intent to obtain 3CE’s own Scheduling Coordinator ID for 3CE’s use during the Term of this Agreement. To the extent necessary, TPS shall assist 3CE in facilitating the transition with the CAISO from the SCID obtained by TPS for 3CE’s Resources to 3CE’s own SCID. Furthermore, the Parties agree to cooperate in good faith to make necessary changes to this Agreement to accommodate this transition, provided however, such changes shall not include adjustments to the Fixed Monthly Fee for Services to be provided under this Agreement.

2.2 Scheduling. If the TPS Customer Portal is available, 3CE will utilize it to communicate desired Energy and Ancillary Services Bids and schedules for the DAM and Real-Time FMM scheduling cycles. Otherwise, a TPS developed scheduling spreadsheet template, or other mutually agreed electronic communication, will be submitted by 3CE for the DAM and all Real-Time FMM scheduling cycles. TPS will provide, and 3CE grants TPS the authority to perform, scheduling services for the Resources in the role of 3CE’s Scheduling Coordinator in accordance with (i) the Governing Rules, (ii) Prudent Industry Practice, and (iii) instructions from 3CE. As part of its Scheduling Coordinator responsibilities under this Agreement, TPS will submit all Energy and Ancillary Services Bids consistent with the rules and regulations of CAISO and the directions of 3CE. TPS will schedule all output from the Resources consistent with each Resource’s operational and economic parameters as communicated to TPS by 3CE; provided, however, to the extent TPS determines in its reasonable discretion that the scheduling of Products from any Resource to a Third Party creates any TPS Credit Exposure, in excess of the 3CE Threshold, for

Page 161 of 1037 ends

Execution Version
3 which TPS is not sufficiently secured, then TPS shall not be required to continue scheduling such Products to a Third Party unless and until TPS receives sufficient Credit Support from 3CE to mitigate TPS’s Credit Exposure, in excess of the 3CE Threshold.

Subject to the foregoing sentence, TPS will schedule all Transactions with the appropriate Third Parties, transmission providers, and balancing authorities, in accordance with this Agreement. 3CE will provide TPS all information relevant to or required by the Governing Rules in order to satisfy all relevant data and information required for participation in the CAISO markets. Such information will be provided to TPS in those time increments, quantities, duration, and terms in compliance with the Governing Rules.

Each component of 3CE’s Bids (collectively and individually) shall, when provided to TPS, be in a form intended to satisfy the requirements of the Governing Rules. If TPS discovers that 3CE’s Bids conflict with the requirements of the Governing Rules, TPS shall immediately notify 3CE thereof and shall coordinate with 3CE to modify 3CE’s Bids to comply with such requirements. If Bids cannot be modified, then TPS will have the right to reject 3CE’s Bids to remedy any conflict therewith, and shall immediately notify 3CE thereof. 3CE will provide or make available to TPS all such information using the format, software, and communication format and specifications, and other technical criteria mutually agreed between the Parties. 3CE will provide TPS the necessary information at least two (2) hours prior to any applicable deadline specified under the Governing Rules. 3CE may, in lieu of providing specific Bids to TPS, provide TPS specific procedures and operating rules to be used by TPS to generate all or a portion of the Bids. If 3CE does so, then TPS shall generate Bids in accordance with such procedures and operating rules and submit such Bids to the applicable CAISO markets in accordance with the Governing Rules.

2.3 Schedule Changes. Notwithstanding Section 2.2 of the Base Agreement, 3CE may change information previously provided to TPS, provided any such change is provided to TPS by the deadlines specified in Section 2.2 of the Base Agreement. Provided that 3CE provides any such change in accordance with the deadlines provided within this Section

2.3, TPS will use commercially reasonable efforts to timely implement any such changes.

If the TPS Customer Portal is available, 3CE will utilize it to communicate information changes to TPS. Otherwise, such changes shall be made to TPS utilizing the TPS developed scheduling spreadsheet template, described in Section 2.2 of the Base Agreement, or through other mutually agreed electronic communication. In the event that any change timely provided to TPS differs from prior information for the same time period, such subsequent information, upon receipt by TPS, shall supersede the prior information, and TPS will rely upon and implement the most recent information when submitting such information to CAISO for 3CE. TPS shall promptly notify 3CE if it is unable to implement any changes provided by 3CE and provide explanation why TPS was not able to implement the changes and a mitigation plan that would enable TPS to implement the changes in the future.

2.4 24-Hour Monitoring. For Products delivered from the Resources to CAISO, TPS will administer and monitor sales of such Products to CAISO as 3CE’s Scheduling Coordinator. TPS will provide 3CE with access to the CAISO Energy markets (including, without limitation, the Resource Adequacy Capacity bilateral markets) and the Services twenty-four (24) hours per Day, seven (7) Days per week, subject to market availability and operational limitations of the Resources. TPS will timely communicate with CAISO regarding the Resources and, as soon as practicable, inform 3CE of any and all CAISO directives or instructions affecting the Resources.

2.5 Outage Reporting. TPS will provide Outage scheduling services to 3CE, which will consist solely of relaying to CAISO, in such electronic data transmission format as is authorized
