Summary
Would have required the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) to establish a renewable gas, as defined, procurement program requiring each gas corporation to procure renewable gas in an amount so that, by January 1, 2030, at least 20 percent of the total volume of gas delivered to customers in California by that gas corporation is renewable gas. The bill would have also required CPUC, in designing and implementing the program, to ensure that the renewable gas procurement program is a cost-effective means to achieve forecast reductions in emissions of short‑lived climate pollutants pursuant to specified laws and that the program complies with all applicable state and federal laws. Was not heard in the Senate Environmental Quality Committee.
