Reply Comments on the CPUC OIR Regarding Policies, Procedures, and Rules for the Self-Generation Incentive Program and Related Issues

Today, the CHBC submitted reply comments to the California Public Utilities Commission on the Order Instituting Rulemaking Regarding Policies, Procedures, and Rules for the Self-Generation Incentive Program and Related Issues. The CHBC comments called attention to and agreed with the interest expressed by a number of parties in green hydrogen being included in the SGIP program as a clean and resilient generation resource capable of providing reliable power.

Additionally, the CHBC recommended five incentives and programs the CPUC can create to ensure green hydrogen is actually adopted by participants in the SGIP program and that SB 1369’s mandate to accelerate use of green electrolytic hydrogen is fully implemented.
