Energy Efficiency Risk/Reward Incentive Mechanism (RRIM) (R.09-01-019)
What’s this? This rulemaking will address the CPUC’s policies related to an energy efficiency risk / reward incentive mechanism (RRIM), which offers the four major California energy utilities, i.e., Pacific Gas and Electric Company ( PG&E), Southern California Edison Company ( SCE), San Diego Gas & Electric Company ( SDG&E), and Southern California Gas Company ( SoCal Gas), incentives to achieve or surpass CPUC-adopted energy efficiency goals and to extend California's commitment to making energy efficiency the highest energy resource priority.
What’s new?
On January 12, the CPUC issued an order instituting rulemaking (OIR), opening R.12-01-005 as a successor docket to R.09-01-019 to continue implementation of reforms to the CPUC’s existing energy efficiency RRIM. R.09-01-019 is therefore closed for purposes of Public Utilities Code Section 1701.5 and remains open only to consider existing petitions for modification, applications for rehearing and requests for intervener compensation. R.12-01-005 will therefore examine the RRIM reform issues carried forward from R.09-01-019, including the design and administration of incentives for energy efficiency activities administered by PG&E, SCE, SDG&E and SoCalGas. Comments on the OIR were due January 30 and were to incorporate comments in response to the Dec. 16, 2011 assigned commissioner’s ruling in R.09-01-019. Reply comments were due February 9.
