(CORRECTION) Public Workshop Notice: IOU Workshop - Virtual Net Energy Metering - Public Workshop to Discuss Data to be Provided to Generation Account Owners to Verify Benefitting Account Holders are Properly Credited
(R.10-05-004) (REVISED AS OF 7/18/12)
August 3, 2012 |
Pacific Energy Center 851 Howard St |
Decision 11-07-031 issued on July 20, 2011, required Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E), Southern California Edison Company (SCE) and San Diego Gas & Electric Company (SDG&E), (collectively, the Utilities), to each submit a new tariff for virtual net energy metering (VNM) to the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC). On December 12, 2011, the CPUC held a Public Workshop to discuss the expansion of Virtual Net Metering. On April 25, 2012, the CPUC issued Resolution E-4481 based on comments received on tariffs filed and discussion at the workshop. Ordering Paragraph (OP) 8 of the resolution specifically requires the three Utilities to initiate discussions with the CPUC, VNM Generating Account Owners and the Joint Solar Parties to identify data that can be provided to the Generating Account Owners to enable them to verify that their VNM Benefitting Account holders are properly credited. These discussions should consider potentially relevant outcomes of the Smart Grid Rulemaking (R.08-12-009).
To address OP 8 and facilitate discussions, the Utilities are scheduling this joint workshop, although it was not explicitly directed by the Commission. We will discuss benefitting account data that can be provided to the Generating Account Owners to satisfy OP 8. In preparation for the workshop, the Utilities have identified the data fields below that can be provided to the Generating Account Owners without requiring Benefitting Account Owner authorization. To accommodate this, the Utilities would need to modify their billing systems to provide the specified data.
Data fields that would not require written authorization for release from a Benefitting Account Owner:
· Generator Account o Measured Generation (kWh)
· Benefitting Account o Service Address (normally not released, but in this case Generating Account Owner has the information and supplies it to Utility)
o Allocation Percentage
o Allocated kWh
In preparation for the workshop, Generation Account Owners and Joint Solar Parties can provide questions, topic suggestions, and RSVP for the workshop to Harold Hirsch email:
HHH4@pge.com or to Gabe Petlin email:
GP1@cpuc.ca.gov by July 16, 2012. After input is received an agenda will be circulated.
If you plan to attend in person or via phone, please RSVP, so that we can prepare to accommodate the number of attendees. Conference call information and an agenda will be made available closer to the August 3, 2012 workshop.
(UPDATED) Public Workshop Notice: R.11-10-023 - Workshop- Resource Adequacy 2013 Templates and Guides (REVISED AS OF 7/19/12)
August 6, 2012 (NEW DATE) |
California Public Utilities Commission |
This workshop is to go over the 2013 Resource Adequacy (RA) compliance templates (both System and Local templates) and RA Guide. This review will demonstrate the new features of the template which include any features related to the recent RA decision (linked below). This workshop will be broken into two sections. The first section will be a demonstration of the features of the RA templates and guides that are new for 2013 compliance year. Once the new features and procedures are demonstrated, those that are familiar with the process can drop off the WebEx and the rest of the time will be a general demonstration of the RA templates and guides for those that seek further clarification or for those representing new LSEs that are new to the process. This is an ideal time for those representing new LSEs to gain an understanding of filing procedures and rules. Representatives from LSEs are encouraged to develop questions or functions that Energy Division staff can clarify or demonstrate during the workshop, and they are encouraged to email Energy Division staff before the workshop with those questions. Draft templates and guides, as well as WebEx information, will be sent to the service list in advance of the workshop. For LSEs that need more one-on-one training, Energy Division RA staff will gladly set up these trainings offline to go through the templates in finer detail.
Link to 2013 RA decision:
http://docs.cpuc.ca.gov/PUBLISHED/FINAL_DECISION/169718.htm
2013 templates and guides, as well as other compliance materials, will be posted to the RA compliance materials page here:
