JPA Board Correspondence
DATE: September 15, 2023
BOARD MEETING DATE: September 28, 2023
SPECIAL NOTICE/HEARING: None
VOTE REQUIRED: Majority Present
TO: Honorable Peninsula Clean Energy Authority Board of Directors FROM: Roy Xu, Director of Power Resources
Sara Maatta, Power Resources and Compliance Manager
Shayna Barnes, Power Resources Specialist
SUBJECT: Approval of Peninsula Clean Energy’s 2022 Power Source Disclosure Annual Reports and Power Content Label

RECOMMENDATION
Approve Resolution Approving Peninsula Clean Energy’s 2022 Power Source Disclosure Annual Reports and Power Content Label, Confirming the Accuracy of the Information Provided in the 2022 Power Source Disclosure Reports and Power Content Label and Delegating Authority to the Chief Executive Officer to Submit the Attestation to the California Energy Commission. (Action)

BACKGROUND
The California Public Utilities Code requires all retail sellers of electric energy, including Peninsula Clean Energy, to disclose “accurate, reliable, and simple-to-understand information on the sources of energy” that are delivered to their respective customers. The format for the required communications is highly prescriptive, offering little flexibility to retail sellers when presenting such information to customers. This format has been termed the “Power Content Label” by the California Energy Commission (CEC). Information presented in the Power Content Label includes the proportionate share of total energy supply attributable to various resource types, including both renewable and conventional fuel sources. In 2021, Assembly Bill 242 (Holden, Chapter 228, Statutes of 2021) was adopted, requiring California retail electricity suppliers to post their Power Content Labels on their websites annually by October 1 and in written promotional materials by the end of the first complete billing cycle for the fourth quarter of the year. For 2023, the CEC will consider Power Content Labels posted on websites and provided to the CEC by October 2, 2023 as timely. The CEC will consider Power Content Labels provided to customers in written promotional materials by January 2, 2024 as timely.

PCE - 6
6 Item No. 1
Beginning with the 2021 reporting year, retail suppliers are required to calculate the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions intensity of their electricity portfolios and report the results in the Power Source Disclosure Report and on the Power Content Label. The methodology for calculating the emissions intensity is determined by the CEC, and retail suppliers are required to use the CEC’s methodology. Any marketing or retail product claim by a retail supplier related to the GHG emissions intensity of an electricity portfolio must be consistent with the GHG emissions intensity disclosed on the relevant Power Content Label. Retail suppliers may provide additional information to customers describing other actions related to greenhouse gases that are unrelated to the electricity portfolio.

DISCUSSION
During the 2022 calendar year, Peninsula Clean Energy successfully delivered a substantial portion of its electric energy supply from various renewable energy sources, including solar, wind, and small hydroelectricity. For our ECOplus customers, the percentage of supply attributable to renewable energy sources approximated fifty-two percent (51.8%) according to the Power Content Label, and the total supply from carbon-free or renewable resources was one hundred percent (100%)1. These amounts meet our targets of fifty percent (50%) renewable and one hundred percent (100%) renewable or carbon-free energy. For our ECO100 customers, the percentage of supply attributable to renewable energy sources comprised one hundred percent (100%). The 2022 calendar year was the first year that Peninsula Clean Energy implemented the Disadvantaged Communities Green Tariff (DAC-GT) program. Peninsula Clean Energy’s program for DAC-GT is called Green Access and is represented on the Power Content Label as a separate product, with one hundred percent (100%) of its supply coming from renewable sources.

The 2022 calendar year Power Content Label includes the GHG Emissions Intensity factor calculated per the CEC’s methodology. For our ECOplus customers, the GHG Emissions Intensity for 2022 was 9 lbs of carbon dioxide equivalent per megawatt-hour of electricity (CO2e/MWh). In comparison, the average intensity for California utilities in 2022 was 422 lbs CO2e/MWh. For our ECO100 and Green Access customers, the GHG Emissions Intensity for 2022 was 0 lbs CO2e/MWh.

Beginning with reporting for the 2019 calendar year, the CEC requires supplies purchased from Asset Controlling Suppliers (ACS supplies) to be disaggregated in the Power Content Label into distinct fuel types, such as large hydroelectric, nuclear, and unspecified sources of power. Peninsula Clean Energy did not purchase any ACS supplies in 2022. 1 The percentages on the Power Content Label may not add up exactly due to rounding. The Power Content Label template is provided by the California Energy Commission as a “locked” Excel spreadsheet. The template does not allow us to make any changes to add a decimal place or fix rounding.

PCE - 7
7 Item No. 1
Consistent with applicable regulations, Peninsula Clean Energy will post the Power Content Label online by October 2, 2023, provide required documentation to the CEC by October 2, 2023 and complete requisite customer communications in accordance with the January 2, 2024 deadline.

To fulfill its Power Content Label reporting obligation, Peninsula Clean Energy must also provide the CEC with an attestation regarding the veracity of information included in the Power Content Label. In consideration of the aforementioned internal review and applicable regulations, staff requests that the Board accept this determination and attest to the veracity of information included in Peninsula Clean Energy’s 2022 Power Content Label, which will soon be distributed to Peninsula Clean Energy customers.

Copies of Peninsula Clean Energy’s 2022 Power Source Disclosure Reports are included as Exhibits A, B, and C. A copy of Peninsula Clean Energy’s 2022 Power Content Label is reproduced below:

Specified Purchases: A Specified Purchase refers to a transaction in which electricity is traceable to specific generating facilities by any auditable contract trail or equivalent, such as a tradable commodity system, that provides commercial verification that the electricity claimed has been sold once and only once to retail consumers. Do not enter data in the grey fields. For specified purchases, include enter following information for each line item:

Facility Name - Provide the name used to identify the facility.

Fuel Type - Provide the resource type (solar, natural gas, etc.) that this facility uses to generate electricity.

Location - Provide the state or province in which the facility is located.

Identification Numbers - Provide all applicable identification numbers from the Western Renewable Energy Generation Information System (WREGIS), the Energy Information Agency (EIA), and the California Renewables Portfolio Standard (RPS).

Gross Megawatt Hours Procured - Provide the quantity of electricity procured in MWh from the generating facility.

Megawatt Hours Resold - Provide the quantity of electricity resold at wholesale.

Unspecified Power: Unspecified Power refers to electricity that is not traceable to specific generation sources by any auditable contract trail or equivalent, or to power purchases from a transaction that expressly transferred energy only and not the RECs associated from a facility. Do not enter procurements of unspecified power. The schedule will calculate unspecified power procurements automatically.

Complete this schedule by entering information about unbundled REC retirements in the previous calendar year.

Unbundled RECs will be automatically displayed on Schedule 3 as a percentage of retail sales.

Retail suppliers of electricity must complete this schedule by entering information about all power procurements and generation that served the identified electricity portfolio covered in this filing in the prior year. The schedule is divided into sections: directly delivered renewables, firmed-and-shaped imports, specified non-renewables, and procurements from ACSs. Insert additional rows as needed to report all procurements or generation serving the subject product. Provide the annual retail sales for the subject product in the appropriate space. At the bottom of Schedule 1, provide the retail suppliers’ other electricity end-uses that are not retail sales, such as transmission and distribution losses. Retail suppliers shall submit a purchase agreement or ownership arrangement documentation substantiating that any eligible firmed-and-shaped product for which it is claiming an exclusion was executed prior to January 1, 2019. Any retail supplier that offered multiple electricity portfolios in the prior year must submit separate Annual Reports for each portfolio offered.

Power Resources – Load Forecasting
Carlos Collado Capell assisted the Power Resources team with focus on three key projects:
• Building Electrification Forecast: Carlos built a sophisticated, long-term hourly forecast of Building Electrification loads using ACS 2019, RASS and EnergySTAR data. The forecast uses assumptions of the expected penetration of electric appliances, including space conditioning, water heating, cooking, and clothes drying.
• Actual vs Forecast Load Divergence Modeling: Carlos investigated a trend we have observed in loads over the past ~12 months, specifically that solar hour load is higher than expected, and evening hour load is lower than expected. Carlos built a model in python (using a random forest algorithm) to assess the contribution of various factors to this load divergence.
• Behind-the-Meter generation Load Disaggregation: Carlos disaggregated our historic load data into consumption and generation portions, based on actual weather data and modeling of likely behind-the-meter generation (using PG&E interconnection data to inform the capacity of behind-the-meter assets online over time).

Energy Programs – EV
Sophia Young performed customer research and a landscape analysis for our Used EV and ebikes programs as part of an internal evaluation process. Overall context for these programs has changed, and her analysis helped us figure out what changes PCE should be making in the future. One critical assignment was her analysis of local used EV price changes over the past year and what that means for the future of our used EV program.

Energy Programs – Building Electrification
Zachary Meyer assisted the BE team with two projects that involved reviewing data from the Appliance Rebate Program:
• Review of gas data in homes that had received a heat pump HVAC rebate as part of a QA process to validate gas furnaces had been fully decommissioned and gas usage decreased as expected.
• Review of Invoice documentation for all rebate projects to document findings, such as discrepancy rate between invoice cost vs. self-reported cost in application and identify trends in what sorts of things are generally included in the installation's cost.

Marketing and Community Relations – Energy Equity
Emilia Groupp assisted the Marketing and Community Relations team in the area of Energy Equity research. She worked on several key projects, including:
• A review of definitions of, and best practices in, implementing energy equity PCE - 37
37 Item No. 3
• Research methods to consider wealth as criteria for program eligibility • A review of equity decision guidelines in public agencies • Research best practices for DEAI implementation in general and in similar organizations.

She presented her findings to a larger PCE audience in August.

A Successful Staff Retreat
A big thank you to the Board of Directors for supporting our off-site staff retreat on September 20-21 at Costanoa in Pescadero. With so many new staff members, a new CEO, and a team that works primarily remotely, the opportunity to gather in person to discuss current and future strategy, internal operations and to get to know one another better was invaluable. We look forward to bringing some of our key takeaways and ideas to the Board at its retreat on November 16, 2023.

Industry Events & PCE in the Community
• On September 26-27, the CEO will be attending the annual Cal-CCA Board retreat hosted this year by Sonoma Clean Power.
• CEO attends monthly California Community Power (CCPower) Board meetings.

Friday Office Hours
The new Friday morning office hours are going well and participation is growing. If you would like to schedule a brief virtual meeting to talk about the topic(s) of your choice, please schedule using this link.

VOTE REQUIRED: Yes
TO: Honorable Peninsula Clean Energy Authority Board of Directors FROM: Rafael Reyes, Director of Energy Programs
Phillip Kobernick, Senior Programs Manager
SUBJECT: Approval of $524,500 contract extension with CLEAResult to provide technical assistance services in the EV Ready program

RECOMMENDATION
Approval of a three-year, $524,500 contract extension with CLEAResult, for a revised contract total of $2,524,500, to provide technical assistance services to site hosts in the EV Ready program.

BACKGROUND
In December 2018, the Board approved a 4-year, $16 million EV charging infrastructure program intended to accelerate EV adoption in San Mateo County. The funds include $12 million in incentives, technical assistance, workforce development, and other program costs.

In January 2019, Peninsula Clean Energy submitted a joint application to the California Energy Commission (CEC) with Silicon Valley Clean Energy (SVCE), San Jose Clean Energy (SJCE), City of Palo Alto and Silicon Valley Power (SVP) for additional State funding for EV infrastructure through the California Electric Vehicle Incentive Project (CALeVIP). PCE was successful in attracting an additional $12 million to San Mateo County from the CEC through the CALeVIP program – increasing the available incentive pool to $24 million over 4 years.

The incentives for San Mateo County were originally organized into two pools: $20 million in CALeVIP (focused primarily on fast charging, public and workplace), of which $12 million was from the CEC and $8M was from PCE; and an additional $4 million in a dedicated pool administered by PCE to address gaps in the CALeVIP program including multi-family housing, Level 1 charging, new construction, and other segments. The PCE program, called “EV Ready,” launched in fall 2020. In August 2022, Peninsula Clean Energy elected to directly administer the not-yet-approved pool of funds that were PCE - 39
39 Item No. 5
previously administered through CALeVIP, worth approximately $4 million, by adding these funds to the PCE-administered EV Ready pool of funds.

Since these changes were made, the EV Ready program has grown significantly. There are now over 130 active EV charging incentive projects in progress, representing more than 2,000 charging ports. 528 charging ports have already been installed, over half of which are at multi-family properties like apartments and condos, as outlined in the table below. 349 of these chargers have been installed in PCE’s directly administered pool of funds for a total of about $803,000 in incentives and 179 chargers have been installed as part of the CALeVIP program for a total of about $1,049,000 in incentives, highlighting PCE’s focus on more cost-effective chargers that are quicker to install.

Since the program launch, PCE, through its contract with CLEAResult, has provided optional, but recommended, technical assistance to customers planning to install EV charging. This technical assistance provides customers with education on various EV charging options, including “right-sized” and lower-cost opportunities, project planning guidance, electrical load studies, various site design options, contractor referrals (if requested), and access to negotiated pricing on EV charging equipment. The key deliverable that customers receive is a “Charging Evaluation,” which provides three EV charging design options: 1) what the customer initially requested, 2) a larger and more cost-effective project that adds more charging at an average lower cost per charger, and 3) a final design option that maximizes available incentives and/or adds as much charging as is feasible. There are currently 220 properties receiving these technical assistance services, representing a potential of 1,800 charging ports in design.

PCE’s right-sizing EV charging strategy, as implemented with customers receiving technical assistance, has demonstrated how to install more cost-effective EV charging that minimizes the need for time-consuming electrical service upgrades from PG&E. This strategy relies upon Level 1 and power-managed Level 2 charging for long-dwell parking Multi-Unit

applications like overnight charging at multi-family residential locations. These charging solutions meet the typical daily needs of nearly all EV drivers while allowing for many more chargers to be added to energy-constrained properties than traditional, full-power, Level 2 charging stations. They are also much less expensive. PCE’s average costs are $3,500 per charger, 5 times less expensive than PG&E’s average costs. Level 1 charging is even more affordable, costing around $2,400 per outlet and enabling some customers to install these chargers with no out-of-pocket costs with PCE’s incentives. This strategy has been subsequently adopted by other CCAs and agencies such as Silicon Valley Clean Energy’s FutureFit Assist program, the California Energy Commission’s Reliable, Equitable, and Accessible Charging for Multi-Family Housing (REACH) program, and PG&E’s new Multi-Family and Small Business Direct Install Pilot. Level 1 charging was also first added as a proposed charging option in the upcoming state CALGreen building code cycle.

The technical assistance offering has proved to be a vital component of the EV Ready program by enabling customers to increase the scope of their projects. Customers receiving technical assistance in the EV Ready program have, on average, doubled the number of EV chargers from what they initially requested. Multi-family properties have been a particular focus of the program and these have seen an average increase of two and a half times the initially requested number of ports on average. Empowering multifamily property managers to so significantly expand the scope of their EV charging projects is a priority for ensuring equitable access as residents of these properties have historically adopted EVs at lower rates than residents of single-family homes, due to a lack of home charging options. In addition, 12 Affordable Housing projects with providers such as Mercy Housing, Bridge Housing, and MidPen Housing are currently enrolled in the technical assistance program to provide EV charging for their residents.

The contract with CLEAResult to provide these technical assistance services was originally approved by the Board of Directors in August 2019 and its current term is from December 2019 to December 2023.

DISCUSSION
Peninsula Clean Energy executed a four-year contract with CLEAResult in November 2019 with a total contract value of $2 million. The contract contains three components: 1) Program Administration & Marketing, 2) Charging Evaluations, and 3) a performance incentive when EV chargers are installed, as outlined in the table below. Charging Evaluations are the deliverable that a technical-assistance customer receives, and they include charging installation options for the customer’s consideration and selection.

Staff are satisfied with CLEAResult’s performance and have negotiated a contract extension that adds additional time and value to the contract and also makes modifications to the payment structure. The changes are reflective of a significantly changed landscape from when the program first launched. For instance, CALeVIP was originally projected to have provided over 2,000 charging ports but will ultimately provide fewer than 800 due to widespread cancellations. As a result, PCE has taken a much more direct role in administering incentives and managing customers. The resulting contract change modifies the Charging Port Bonus to apply to only chargers installed by technical assistance customers and to start sooner (at 250 ports vs 2,500 ports), reflecting the substantial reduction of expected CALeVIP charging ports and the need for PCE to generate new projects.

Another contract modification is the change in the price of Charging Evaluations and Charging Port Bonuses. These changes are intended to put more focus and value on projects that are more likely to result in charger installations. Charging Evaluation costs will be reduced from $2,875 to $1,950 each and Charging Port Bonuses will be increased from $215 each to $480 each, and as mentioned previously, will only apply to chargers installed by technical assistance customers. These modifications are outlined in the table below.

Board Correspondence

BOARD MEETING DATE: September 28, 2023
SPECIAL NOTICE/HEARING: None
VOTE REQUIRED: None
TO: Honorable Peninsula Clean Energy Authority Board of Directors FROM: Marc Hershman, Director of Government Affairs
SUBJECT: Update on Peninsula Clean Energy’s Activities in the 2023-2024 Legislative Session
BACKGROUND:

With the conclusion of the 2023 legislative session in Sacramento, Peninsula Clean Energy Government Affairs Director Marc Hershman and our lobbyist Mark Fenstermaker of Pacific Partners, will provide the Board of Directors with an oral report of legislative activities and results.

SACRAMENTO SUMMARY:

On Thursday, September 14, 2023 the legislature completed its business for this year and recessed until January 3, 2024.

Notable recent developments in 2023 included the change in leadership of the state Assembly that occurred on July 1. Assemblymember Robert Rivas (D-Hollister) became the Speaker of the State Assembly, replacing Speaker Anthony Rendon. That change set in motion several other changes in the Assembly. Among them, San Mateo County Assembly Member Diane Papan is now a part of the leadership team.

Additionally, Los Banos’s representative in the state Assembly, Esmeralda Soria, is the new chair of the Committee on Agriculture and she was also given a seat on the Appropriations Committee.

The State Senate is also undertaking a change in leadership. Senator Mike McGuire (D-Healdsburg) has been elected as the next Senate Pro Tem. He is set to replace the current Pro Tem, Senator Toni Atkins, sometime in early 2024, and he has many operational CCAs in his District.

PCE - 52
52 Item No. 6

SB 537 did not get a vote on the floor of the Assembly before the end of the 2023 session. It is eligible to be taken up in 2024 as a two-year bill. We are most grateful to Senator Josh Becker and his staff for their unwavering efforts to bring SB 537 forward through the legislative process.

We also wish to acknowledge the continuing support of the Bay Area Air Quality Management District for providing lead testimony in each of the legislative hearings.

We greatly appreciate the many letters of support for SB 537 from local jurisdictions and elected officials. These include Atherton, Brisbane, Burlingame, Colma, Menlo Park, San Bruno, San Carlos, San Mateo, South San Francisco, Menlo Park Councilmember Betsy Nash, and Hillsborough Councilmember Leslie Ragsdale.

In addition to local support, letters and official support was also lodged by the Bay Area Air Quality Management District, California Association of Councils of Governments, League of California Cities, CalCCA, Streets for All, Los Angeles County Sanitation Districts, Transportation Agency for Monterey County, and sister CCAs Sonoma Clean Power and San Diego Community Power.

Opposition to the bill has come from the ACLU, California News Publishers, Cal Aware, California Broadcasters Association, California Common Cause, CCNMA: Latino Journalists of California, First Amendment Coalition, Howard Jarvis Taxpayers Association, and the Leadership Council for Justice and Accountability, National Press Photographers Association, Nlgja: Association of LGBTQ+ Journalists, League of Women Voters, Northern California Society of Professional Journalists, Orange County Press Club, Pacific Media Worker Guild, Radio Television Digital News Association, San Diego Pro Chapter of Society of Professional Journalists, Society of Professional Journalists, Greater Los Angeles Chapter.

At the insistence of the Senate Committee on Governance and Finance, several amendments to the bill were made. Of greatest significance, the bill was amended so that virtual participation has been limited to board members who reside more than 40 miles from the venue in which the meeting is being held and the location of the participant must be included in the agenda of the meeting.

One significant amendment that was taken from the Assembly committee will require any person who receives compensation for their service on the eligible board to participate in person.

PCE - 53
53 Item No. 6
AB 538 (Holden) – LEGISLATION TO REGIONALIZE THE GRID
AB 538 was a renewed effort by Assemblymember Holden to move California away from the California Independent System Operator (CAISO) as the manager of our state’s electric grid and in its place have California join/form a multi-state regional transmission system.

On July 14, the date on which the Legislature began its summer recess, a letter signed by leaders of key regulatory agencies across multiple states (including California, Oregon, Washington, Arizona, & New Mexico) was submitted to the California Energy Commission arguing for the creation of a non-profit forum to enable a multistate regulatory dialogue to further explore the facts and policies surrounding possible regionalization. It appears that Governor Newsom’s administration is supportive of this request. Peninsula Clean Energy staff members are tracking this matter to see what comes of the request and whether there is an opportunity for our agency to engage.

FY 2023-24 State Budget / AB 1373 (E. Garcia)
As noted in previous Legislative Updates, the Governor introduced a budget trailer bill earlier this year that has raised significant concerns. In the trailer bill proposal, the Governor seeks to broaden the scope of procurement by enabling the Department of Water Resources to act as a central procurement entity. The trailer bill also adds a capacity payment penalty for Resource Adequacy (RA) deficiencies. Further it seeks to clarify the California Public Utilities Commission’s Integrated Resource Plan (IRP) authority over CCAs.

Peninsula Clean Energy and CalCCA have met with legislators, their staff members and Administration officials to try and move this from a budget bill, which would short circuit the hearing process, to a policy bill. We were successful in the Assembly as AB 1373 (E.

Garcia) was introduced in April.

In meetings with legislative staff, we expressed our concerns with the substance of AB 1373, and we filed a letter taking the position of “Oppose Unless Amended.” Our letter questioned the need for a central procurement entity and highlighted our biggest concerns: interconnection and the transmission system.

Along with the California Municipal Utilities Association, CalCCA provided the lead testimony expressing our concerns with the bill in the Assembly hearing on AB 1373. We also expressed our opposition to the bill’s proposal giving the Public Utilities Commission an expanded, ill-defined Integrated Resource Plan jurisdiction over CCA procurement autonomy. And we raised an objection to the bill proposal of a capacity penalty payment for Resource Adequacy deficiencies.

AB 1373 passed the Assembly Committee on Utilities and Energy. It then went to the Committee on Appropriations where it passed on May 18. The bill was then sent to the PCE - 54
54 Item No. 6
floor of the Assembly where on May 26 it passed by a vote of 57-17 with the support of Assembly Members Berman, Papan, Soria and Ting.

We continued to work with local legislators and other stakeholders to refine the bill to address our issues of concern. The Assembly adopted many of the amendments CCAs sought and the version of AB 1373 that was passed off the floor of the Assembly on May 26 was significantly improved. As a result, we then submitted a letter withdrawing our opposition and moving to a neutral position on the legislation.

AB 1373 was heard in the Senate Committee on Energy on September 6. At that time the committee accepted an amendment supported by CalCCA which placed guardrails around the Department of Water Resources as the sole agency responsible for central procurement. We believe that this limitation will mitigate the risk of market disruptions and will protect our ratepayers. Also important, was an amendment inserted that maintains the existing right of CCAs to self-procure diverse resources that are not otherwise procured by the DWR.

With these changes made, Peninsula Clean Energy once again took a neutral position on the legislation. A copy of that correspondence is included with this report.

AB 1373 passed the Legislature late in the evening on September 14, in the final hours of the legislative session, and the bill is now awaiting the Governor’s signature or veto. 2024 Climate Bond
Two pieces of legislation, AB 1567 (E.Garcia) in the Assembly and SB 867 (Allen) in the Senate, would have created the basis for a climate bond for the 2024 ballot. Each piece of legislation proposes approximately $15 billion in investment in climate areas, including resilience measures for water, wildfire, flood, drought and the coast, heat mitigation, and support for agriculture and parks. Each also has a clean energy component of approximately $2 billion.

Neither bill came to the floor in 2023. The size of the bond will likely shrink considerably before it comes to the floor for consideration.

Both bills were made 2-year bills, which guarantees that a climate bond will not appear on the March 2023 ballot. Should the Legislature revisit this in 2024 a climate bond could be placed on the November 2024 ballot.

SUBJECT: Approval of Peninsula Clean Energy’s 2022 Power Source Disclosure Annual Reports and Power Content Label

PENINSULA CLEAN ENERGY AUTHORITY
JPA Board Correspondence

Beginning with the 2021 reporting year, retail suppliers are required to calculate the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions intensity of their electricity portfolios and report the results in the Power Source Disclosure Report and on the Power Content Label. The methodology for 60 calculating the emissions intensity is determined by the CEC, and retail suppliers are required to use the CEC’s methodology. Any marketing or retail product claim by a retail supplier related to the GHG emissions intensity of an electricity portfolio must be consistent with the GHG emissions intensity disclosed on the relevant Power Content Label. Retail suppliers may provide additional information to customers describing other actions related to greenhouse gases that are unrelated to the electricity portfolio.

DISCUSSION
During the 2022 calendar year, Peninsula Clean Energy successfully delivered a substantial portion of its electric energy supply from various renewable energy sources, including solar, wind and small hydroelectricity. For our ECOplus customers, the percentage of supply attributable to renewable energy sources approximated fifty-two percent (51.8%) according to the Power Content Label, and the total supply from carbon-free or renewable resources was one hundred percent (100%). These amounts meet our targets of fifty percent (50%) renewable and one hundred percent (100%) renewable or carbon-free energy. For our ECO100 customers, the percentage of supply attributable to renewable energy sources comprised one hundred percent (100%). The 2022 calendar year was the first year that Peninsula Clean Energy implemented the Disadvantaged Communities Green Tariff (DAC-GT) program. Peninsula Clean Energy’s program for DAC-GT is called Green Access, and is represented on the Power Content Label as a separate product, with one hundred percent (100%) of its supply coming from renewable sources.

Consistent with applicable regulations, Peninsula Clean Energy will post the Power Content Label online by October 2, 2023, provide required documentation to the CEC by October 2, 2023 and complete requisite customer communications in accordance with the January 2 , 2024 deadline.

While developing Peninsula Clean Energy’s 2022 Power Content Label, staff performed a detailed review of all power purchases completed for the 2022 calendar year. This review included an inventory of all renewable energy transfers within Peninsula Clean Energy’s Western Renewable Energy Generation Information System (WREGIS) accounts and pertinent transaction records. Staff developed the Power Source Disclosure Annual Reports (Annual Reports) for the ECOplus, ECO100, and Green Access products and submitted these reports to the CEC by June 1, 2023. In addition, both the ECO100 and Green Access products for 2022 have been certified by Green-e, a process which included an external audit. Based on staff’s review of available data, the information presented in the Annual Reports and the Power Content Label was determined to be accurate.
61 To fulfill its Power Content Label reporting obligation, Peninsula Clean Energy must also provide the CEC with an attestation regarding the veracity of information included in the Power Content Label. In consideration of the aforementioned internal review and applicable regulations, staff requests that the Board accept this determination and attest to the veracity of information included in Peninsula Clean Energy’s 2022 Power Content Label, which will soon be distributed to Peninsula Clean Energy customers.

Copies of Peninsula Clean Energy’s 2022 Power Source Disclosure Reports are included as Exhibits A, B, and C. A copy of Peninsula Clean Energy’s 2022 Power Content Label is reproduced below:
