Comments on the SB 100 Joint Agency Report: Charting a path to a 100% Clean Energy Future Workshop

On September 15, the CHBC submitted comments to the California Energy Commission on the SB 100 Draft Results Workshop, which focused on draft modeling results and in the wake of Governor Newsom’s announcement to accelerate state climate goals, including the schedule for achieving California’s 100% zero carbon electricity target. The comments outlined the following main points:
  1. Correct the record on E3’s cost projections for electrolytic hydrogen, which are pessimistic compared to many analysts’ latest projections – a worrisome pattern in E3 reports for California agencies – as well as their questionable assumption that there is inadequate cost and supply data for including hydrogen in 2020 modeling.
  2. Ask that the final Joint Agency report consider UCI findings submitted to the SB 100 docket that hydrogen is cost effective at pricing that electrolytic hydrogen is likely to achieve by 2030, if not before.
  3. request that the joint agency report on SB 100 clearly support hydrogen as an important zero carbon firm power resource and as a long duration storage resource, per SB 1369.
  4. To support California in accelerating its climate protection program and to harmonize state agency efforts, the SB 100 Report ought to clearly support the goal of achieving zero or near zero greenhouse gas emissions in the electricity sector as a whole as soon as possible.
  5. Agree with several commenters that implementation modeling ought to be reviewed more often than ever 4 years.
