What this bill does
Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau
This bill makes changes to the funding of statewide energy efficiency and
renewable resources programs, known as Focus on Energy, that current law requires
investor-owned electric and natural gas utilities to fund. Under the bill, the Public
Service Commission must require those utilities to spend 2.4 percent of their annual
operating revenues derived from retail sales to fund Focus on Energy and related
programs. Under current law, the amount those utilities must spend is 1.2 percent
of their annual operating revenues from retail sales.
