Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
Current law requires investor-owned electric and natural gas utilities to fund statewide energy efficiency and renewable resources programs, known as Focus on Energy, and related programs. The bill requires Focus on Energy to include programs that promote energy efficiency and renewable energy measures for low-income households and that address the energy needs and decrease the energy burden of low-income households. The bill requires these programs to be coordinated with the weatherization assistance program administered by the Department of Administration. The bill requires the Public Service Commission to ensure that that not less than 25 percent of the moneys utilities are required to spend to fund Focus on Energy is spent annually on these programs for low-income households.
