DECISION GRANTING INTERVENOR COMPENSATION
TO THE GREEN POWER INSTITUTE FOR SUBSTANTIAL CONTRIBUTIONS
TO DECISIONS (D.) 07-02-011, D.07-05-057, D.08-02-008, D.08-04-009,
D.09-06-018, AND D.09-06-050

1. Summary

This decision awards The Green Power Institute (GPI) $97,593 for its substantial contributions to Decisions (D.) 07-02-011, D.07-05-057, D.08-02-008, D.08-04-009, D.09-06-018, and D.09-06-050. This represents a decrease of $21,333 or 18% from the amount requested due to GPI's failure to make a substantial contribution on some issues in some decisions, inefficient efforts, clerical tasks which are not compensable and unreasonable costs. Today's award payment will be allocated among Southern California Edison Company, San Diego Gas & Electric Company, and Pacific Gas and Electric Company based upon their California-jurisdictional electric revenues for the 2008 calendar year, utilizing the most recent complete year of revenue data. This rulemaking remains open.
