Regulatory Monitoring Report
To: Valley Clean Energy Alliance (VCE) Board of Directors From: Sheridan Pauker, Partner, Keyes & Fox LLP
Jason Hoyle, Principal Analyst, EQ Research, LLC
Subject: Monthly Regulatory Update
Date: October 2, 2024
Keyes & Fox LLP and EQ Research LLC are pleased to provide VCE’s Board of Directors with this informational memo describing key California regulatory and compliance-related updates from the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) over the past month.

Demand Flexibility
Background: This rulemaking was opened to update the CPUC’s rate design principles and guidance for advancing demand flexibility, and the proceeding may also modify, consolidate, or eliminate existing dynamic rate pilots. Phase 1- Track A established an income-graduated fixed charge (IGFC) for residential rates for all investor-owned electric utilities in accordance with Assembly Bill 205 (Stats. 2022, ch. 61). Phase 1-Track B first adopted rate design and demand flexibility principles and then expanded VCE’s AgFIT Pilot throughout PG&E distribution territory.

Recent Developments: On September 3, the Energy Division approved VCE’s Advice Letter 17-E implementing the expanded VCE AgFIT pilot and dismissed Public Advocates Office Protest thereto. Also on September 3, the Energy Division approved PG&E’s Advice Letters 7222-E-B and 7223-E-B, pertaining to PG&E’s implementation of the expanded pilots pursuant to D.24-01-032. On September 16, the ALJ issued a Ruling seeking comments regarding changes to D.24-05-028 (see Staff recommendations memo) and a proposed additional budget to support the continued development of the tools previously created to improve the calculation of income-graduated fixed charges as well as default residential time-of-use rate structures in Phase 2 of R.22-07-005 (TOU reform guidance memo). Comments are due September 30 and reply comments are due October 7.

Analysis: The expanded VCE AgFIT pilot to be administered by VCE is authorized to launch on November 1, 2024 and VCE is currently authorized by the Energy Division to commence marketing, education and outreach efforts for this pilot.

Next Steps: The expanded AgFIT pilot is required to begin enrollment in November. A proposed decision on Track B Working Group 1 proposals regarding rate design for marginal generation capacity costs is expected by the end of this year.

Additional Information: ALJ Ruling (Sep. 16, 2024); Disposition Letter on VCE AL 17-E (Sep. 3, 2024); PG&E AL 7223- E-B (Aug. 13, 2024); PG&E AL 7351-E (Aug. 13, 2024) and AL 7351-E-A (Sep. 13, 2024); Letter granting PG&E dynamic rate pilot enrollment extension (May 31, 2024); PG&E Request for dynamic rate pilot enrollment extension (May 24, 2024); D.24-05-028 (May 15, 2024); VCE Substitute Sheet AL 17-E (Apr. 18, 2024); PG&E AL 7222-E-A (Apr. 17, 2024); D.24-01-032 (Jan. 26, 2024); Phase 1 Scoping Memo and Ruling (Nov. 2, 2022); OIR (Jul. 22, 2022); Docket No.

R.22-07-005.

RPS Rulemaking
Background: This proceeding addresses ongoing Renewables Portfolio Standard (RPS) requirements, including legislative mandates, and other matters related to the purchase of renewable energy. This proceeding is the forum for review of VCE’s RPS Procurement Plan and RPS Compliance reports.

Recent Developments: On September 5, parties filed reply comments on Retail Sellers’ RPS Procurement Plans. Also on September 5, Retail Sellers filed updates to their RPS Procurement Plans. On September 11, the ALJ issued a Proposed Decision levying a $500 financial penalty on CleanPowerSF, Direct Energy Business, and Pilot Power Group for non-compliance with the mandatory inclusion of non-modifiable standard terms and conditions in their RPS contracts.

Analysis: The requirement to report compliance with RPS Compliance Period 4 (’21-’24) is upcoming and CCAs will need to ensure all RPS contracts contain such non-modifiable standard terms and conditions well in advance.

Next Steps: Comments on the Proposed Decision are due October 1, reply comments are due October 7, and the proposed decision may be heard, at the earliest, at the Commission’s October 17 business meeting. A proposed decision on 2024 RPS Procurement Plans is expected in Q4 2024.

2 Additional Information: Proposed Decision (Sep. 11, 2024); VCE Draft 2024 RPS Procurement Plan (Jul. 22, 2024); PG&E AL 7332-E (Jul. 22, 2024); Resolution E-5323 on ReMAT rates (Jun. 24, 2024); Assigned Commissioner’s Ruling on 2024 RPS Procurement Plans (May 17, 2024); Scoping Memo and Ruling (May 9, 2024); ALJ Ruling (Mar. 7, 2024); OIR (Feb. 1, 2024); Docket No. R.24-01-017.

RA Rulemaking (2025-2026)
Background: This proceeding considers resource adequacy (RA) requirements for LSEs and will address the 2025 and 2026 RA compliance years, local RA procurement obligations for the 2025-2028 compliance years, and further development of the 24-hour Slice-of-Day (SOD) framework. Track 1 was focused on priority issues including RA capacity requirements, SOD framework implementation, and RA compliance and penalties. Track 2 is focused on Central Procurement Entity (CPE) framework issues, including potential structural modifications, and Track 3 will be focused on remaining RA capacity issues. The Commission issued a decision (D.24-06-004) on Track 1 on June 26, 2024.

Recent Developments: Comments and reply comments on the Commission’s revised SOD planning reserve margin (PRM) calculation tool were filed on September 9 and September 16, respectively. The 2025 PRM is 17% and Energy Division ‘s July analysis resulted in a 2026 PRM of 18.5%, as discussed in PG&E’s Comments. However, the recent August revisions to the 2026 PRM resulted in a PRM of 26.5% for January through May and 23.5% for June through December. Although the CAISO’s Comments supported the higher PRM level, concerns about the accuracy and cost implications of the higher PRM in the August study were raised in comments by many parties, including CalCCA, AReM, Protect Our Communities Foundation, SDG&E, SCE, PG&E, and the PAO. On September 19, PG&E submitted its 2024 Annual Compliance Report for its Central Procurement Entity (CPE) as AL 7365-E showing the PG&E CPE has a negative (i.e., under-procurement) net local RA position in all months of the years from 2025-2027. Protests of the advice letter are due October 9.

Analysis: N/A
Next Steps: The first year-ahead SOD showing is due in November 2024. A proposed decision in Track 2 is expected in November 2024.

Additional Information: PG&E AL 7365-E (Sep. 19, 2024); ALJ Ruling (Jul. 22, 2024); ALJ Ruling (Jun. 26, 2024); D.24- 06-004 (Jun. 26, 2024); Scoping Memo and Ruling (Dec. 18, 2023); OIR (Oct. 16, 2023); Docket No. R.23-10-011.

EV Rates & Infrastructure
Background: This rulemaking is the successor to R.18-12-006 and will focus on issues related to 1) timely energization of electric vehicle (EV) charging, 2) transportation electrification grid planning to support charging infrastructure deployment, 3) deployment of behind-the-meter (BTM) charging infrastructure to support state goals, 4) vehicle-grid integration (VGI), and 5) ongoing transportation electrification policy development and collaboration.

Recent Developments: On September 13, PG&E filed its Vehicle-Grid Integration Strategies Semi-Annual Report, which outlines the utility’s vehicle-grid integration activities from January 1 to June 30, 2024.

Analysis: N/A
Next Steps: There is no current procedural schedule for this proceeding.

Additional Information: PG&E Semi-Annual VGI Report (Sep. 13, 2024); Resolution E-5326 (Jul. 17, 2024); Letter granting extension (Jun. 5, 2024); ALJ Ruling (Jun. 3, 2024); Vehicle-Grid Integration Forum Report (May 21, 2024); Resolution E-5314 (Apr. 19, 2024); Scoping Memo and Ruling (Apr. 12, 2024); Draft Resolution E-5314 (Mar. 8, 2024); ALJ Ruling (Dec. 27, 2023); OIR (Dec. 20, 2023); Docket No. R.23-12-008.

IRP Rulemaking
Background: This proceeding governs the biennial Integrated Resource Plan (IRP) process, including load serving entity (LSE) procurement requirements, the establishment of a variety of state- and LSE-level load and procurement forecasts, greenhouse gas (GHG) reduction targets, and ongoing reliability obligations.

Recent Developments: On September 12, the ALJ issued a Ruling seeking comments on proposed electricity resource portfolios for CAISO’s 2025-2026 transmission planning process (TPP). Comments on the Ruling were filed September 30 and reply comments are due October 7. On September 17, the CPUC issued D.24-09-006 allowing the use of short-term bridge resources for temporary, alternative compliance with the Diablo Canyon replacement resource category procurement requirement in D.21-06-035.

Analysis: The proposed base case portfolio in the ALJ TPP Ruling is designed to be similar to the 2024-2025 TPP base case, with the same policy assumptions. It incorporates the 25 MMT by 2035 GHG emissions target, includes the resources from individual load-serving entity IRPs submitted in November 2022, and uses the same resource baseline and modeling inputs and assumptions. D.24-09-006 permits the use of short-term contracts for zero greenhouse gas or RPS-eligible resources for up to three years beyond the D.21-06-035 compliance deadline of June 1, 2025.

3 Next Steps: By March 1, 2025, the CPUC may request that DWR exercise the centralized procurement mechanism.

VCE’s next IRP filing is due November 1, 2025.

Additional Information: D.24-09-006 (Sep. 17, 2024); ALJ Ruling (Sep. 12, 2024); D.24-08-064 on central procurement of LLT resources (Aug. 29, 2024); Proposed Decision on bridge resources (Aug. 9, 2024); ALJ Ruling (May 21, 2024); Amended Scoping Memo and Ruling (Correction/Clarification) (Apr. 18, 2024); D.24-02-047 (Feb. 20, 2024); D.23-12- 014 (Dec. 19, 2023); D.23-02-040 on Procurement (Feb. 28, 2023); Docket No. R.20-05-003.

Diablo Canyon Cost Recovery
Background: This proceeding will establish rates effective January 1, 2025 to recover the forecast costs associated with extended operations of the Diablo Canyon Power Plant (DCPP) during the September 2023-December 2025 time period. Customers across the state – including CCA customers - will pay for the costs of extended operations at DCPP, and will be allocated the resource adequacy (RA) and greenhouse gas (GHG)-free benefits associated with those operations. PG&E proposes, in its application, certain changes to the allocation of RA and GHG-free benefits to load serving entities (LSEs). It also proposes specific uses for the volumetric performance fee revenue it will collect from customers in 2025.

Recent Developments: No recent developments.

Analysis: N/A
Next Steps: Opening briefs are due October 1, market price benchmarks will be issued on October 1, reply briefs are due October 21, and a proposed decision is expected in November 2024.

Additional Information: PG&E AL 7295-E-A (Aug. 30, 2024); ALJ Ruling (Aug. 27, 2024); ALJ Ruling (Aug. 15, 2024); Scoping Memo and Ruling (Jun. 18, 2024); PG&E AL 7295-E (Jun. 12, 2024); ALJ Ruling (May 15, 2024); Amended Application (Apr. 8, 2024); Application (Mar. 29, 2024); Docket No. A.24-03-018.

Microgrids
Background: This proceeding was opened to implement the requirements of SB 1339 (Stern, 2018), requiring the commercialization of microgrids for distribution customers of the large IOUs. The initial three tracks have concluded, and Track 4 and Track 5 address the establishment of a Microgrid Incentive Program (MIP), potential contributions that microgrids can make to mitigating capacity shortages in the near-term, the development of a multi-property microgrid framework, and examination of the value of resiliency from microgrids.

Recent Developments: On September 17, the CPUC issued a Proposed Decision (PD) adopting implementation rules for multi-property microgrid tariffs and closing the proceeding. The PD may be heard as early as the November 7 Commission meeting. Comments on the PD are due October 7 and reply comments are due October 14.

Analysis: The PD would adopt a multi-property microgrid tariff for PG&E, SDG&E, and SCE, in compliance with SB 1339 (Stern, Stats. 2018, Chapter 566), that does not shift costs to ratepayers. The PD’s adopted tariff is a modified version of the Joint IOUs’ multi-property microgrid tariff proposal. The tariff must be used by non-utility microgrids deployed through the Microgrid Incentive Program, which supports disadvantaged and vulnerable communities that are impacted by grid outages and may otherwise be unable to deploy a multi-property microgrid project without facing substantial capital costs.

Next Steps: This proceeding will conclude following the approval of the proposed decision.

Additional Information: Proposed Decision (Sep. 17, 2024); PG&E AL 7042-E-B (Jul. 23, 2024); CALSSA PFM (Jun. 11, 2024); Order denying Joint Application for Rehearing (Apr. 19, 2024); ALJ Ruling (Mar. 27, 2024); Microgrid Resources Coalition proposal, Green Power Institute proposal, Clean Coalition proposal (Dec. 15, 2023); PG&E MIP Handbook (Oct. 12, 2023); Scoping Memo and Ruling (Jul. 18, 2023); D.23-04-034 on Microgrid Incentive Program Implementation (Apr. 14, 2023); Docket No. R.19-09-009.

Provider of Last Resort Rulemaking
Background: A Provider of Last Resort (POLR) is the utility or other entity that has the obligation to serve all customers (PG&E currently serves in this role for VCE’s service area). Phase 1 of this proceeding concluded in April 2024 and addressed POLR service requirements, cost recovery, and options to maintain GHG emission reductions in the event of an unplanned customer migration to the POLR. Phase 2 will build on Phase 1 to set the requirements and application process for non-IOU entities to serve as the POLR. Phase 3 will address specific issues not resolved in Phase 1 or 2.

Recent Developments: No recent developments.

Analysis: N/A
Next Steps: A Phase 2 scoping memo is expected soon. The first revised FSR posting under this Decision is due March 1, 2025, and subsequent FSR postings are due July 1 and January 1 of each year.
