Renewable Feed-in Tariffs

E-ReMAT Feed-in Tariff (Senate Bill 32)

Applications currently accepted

Senate Bill (SB) 32 amended Public Utilities Code Section 399.20. Amendments included increasing the statewide procurement target from 500 MW to 750 MW (to be implemented by both investor-owned utilities and public-owned utilities) and increasing the eligible project size from 1.5 MW to 3 MW. Per CPUC Decision (D.) 12-05-035 (PDF), PG&E has been allocated 218.8 MW of the 750 MW total statewide goal. This capacity allocation, reduced by capacity contracted for under the E-PWF and E-SRG tariffs, is available under the Electric - Renewable Market Adjusting Tariff (E-ReMAT).

Per CPUC Decision (D.) 13-05-034 (PDF), the implementation schedule for E-ReMAT is as follows:

• July 24, 2013: The E-ReMAT tariff is effective and E-SRG and E-PWF tariffs are closed to new applicants.
• October 1, 2013: PG&E begins accepting Program Participation Requests (PPRs).
• November 1, 2013: First program period (Period 1) commences.

E-PWF & E-SRG Feed-in Tariffs (Assembly Bill 1969)

Closed to new applicants

On February 14, 2008, the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) approved Resolution E-4137 (PDF) pertaining to tariffs and standard contracts for both Public Water and Wastewater Facilities (E-PWF) and Small Renewable Generators (E-SRG). PG&E was allocated 209.206 MW for procurement, which was divided evenly between the E-SRG and E-PWF Electric Schedules (tariffs).

The CPUC has since adopted a revised feed-in tariff, based on modifications to Section 399.20 of the Public Utilities Code made by statutes subsequent to Assembly Bill 1969, including Senate Bill (SB) 32. The revised feed-in tariff is called the Electric - Renewable Market Adjusting Tariff (E-ReMAT) and became effective on July 24, 2013. As of this date, E-PWF and E-SRG tariffs are no longer be available to new applicants.
