California to Introduce New Feed-in Tariff Targeted at Solar Energy

The CPUC (California Public Utilities Commission) has proposed a decision for launching a novel renewable incentive program that has been designed for propelling mid-sized renewable power development.

The feed-in tariff program necessitates utilities in California that are investor owned for purchasing electrical energy from renewable power systems that are sized between 1 MW and 20 MW capacity. Advocates at the IREC (Interstate Renewable Energy Counsel) and the Vote Solar Initiative have appreciated the efforts of the CPUC for the innovative approaches towards helping California achieve its renewable energy goals.

The CPUC also proposes to establish a 1-GW pilot program meant for generating power from the renewable energy systems that are mid-sized. The RAM (Renewable Auction Mechanism) feed-in tariff model helps address numerous challenges faced by the renewable energy policies that are prevalent in California as well as throughout the world.
