California agencies are finalizing a roadmap for commercializing microgrids in the state, aligning with a $45 million grant funding opportunity.

CAISO will gather feedback on its proposal for reliability payments to keep Calpine’s Metcalf gas-fired plant from retiring.

FERC approved CAISO’s request to be relieved of its requirement to develop a conceptual statewide plan as part of its regional transmission planning process.

FERC rejected an argument by the California PUC (CPUC) that it erred last year in allowing PG&E to include a 50-basis-point ISO participation adder.

Legislature ended its 2017 session, drawing criticism for its pursuit of CAISO regionalization and for letting a 100% clean energy bill die in committee.

California legislation that would regionalize CAISO and mandate 100% zero-carbon retail electricity sales statewide by 2045 will not pass this year.

Last-minute legislation that would transform CAISO into an RTO has stalled in the California State Senate.

A California State Assembly committee advanced a Senate bill requiring publicly owned utilities in the Los Angeles Basin to support DER and energy storage.

California utilities and state agencies are cooperating on developing plans to manage the effects of global climate change on the electricity grid.

Few parties in California are happy with the way the state’s community choice aggregator (CCA) program is turning out, legislators learned.
