Electricity: load-serving entities

The law aims to improve transparency, stakeholder participation, and regulatory decisions while reducing duplicative utility compliance work.

What the law does ​

• Requires the California Public Utilities Commission to consider, by January 1, 2030, combining specified load-serving-entity plans into one procurement plan.
• Requires the commission, when feasible, to consolidate reliability compliance reporting.
• Requires the commission to explain in its procurement or reporting decision if consolidation is not feasible.
• Requires compliance-reporting requirements and templates to be final at least 30 business days before reports are due.

Who it affects ​

• Load-serving entities, including electrical corporations, electric service providers, and community choice aggregators.
• The California Public Utilities Commission.
