Energy Storage Procurement Target

A.B. 2514 of 2010 required the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) to open a proceeding to determine appropriate targets, if any, for each load-serving entity to procure energy storage. After opening a proceeding in December 2010 to consider the matter, the CPUC adopted an energy storage procurement framework and established a statewide energy storage target of 1,325 MW by 2020, with Southern California Edison (SCE), Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E), and San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E), each responsible for a portion of the total.
