Comment:
Dear Members of the Board, Thank you for this opportunity to provide feedback on the regional public workshops for the 2013 Update to the AB 32 Scoping Plan. Our comments here are limited to the Energy Focus Area. We agree with the ARB that low-carbon generation, and specifically renewable generation should be prominent in the vision for 2050. Within this element of the vision and as a means to support the integration of renewable resources, we encourage the ARB to consider goals, objectives, and measures related to increasing voluntary demand for renewable energy in the state (where voluntary demand is renewable electricity use, voluntarily purchased and/or generated by residential, commercial and industrial customers, above and beyond what is required by the RPS). We encourage the ARB to think about what actions the state can take to incentivize voluntary action (for example, requiring utilities to offer green power options). We are happy to provide more thoughts. Thank you, Todd Jones Center for Resource Solutions
