CARB Climate Change Master Events Calendar
AB 32 Collaboration
CPUC staff is actively involved in assisting the California Air Resources Board with the development of program to reduce the state's greenhouse gas emissions to 1990 levels.
The CPUC's Climate Section is providing subject matter expertise to CARB in support of the development of their Cap and Trade and 33% Renewable Electricity Standard regulations. The inter-agency CAT Energy and Water Subgroups meet periodically to coordinate the various agencies' efforts, keep agency principals apprised of progress, and provide agency staff and management with a forum to raise the high-priority issues of which they are aware. CPUC Climate Section staff currently coordinates the conference calls, staff-to-staff meetings, and principals meetings for the CAT Energy Subgroup.
In a joint CPUC and California Energy Commission proceeding, the two energy agencies developed electricity and natural gas sector recommendations for ARB implementation of AB 32.
State energy and environmental agencies are joining forces with the California Independent System Operator Corporation (ISO) to expand cooperation as they advance carbon cutting innovation and green job creation. By further collaboration on important state energy policies, California's Clean Energy Future points the way toward new investments in transmission, energy efficiency, smart grid applications, and increased use of renewable resources.
