AB 759: Electricity: electrical cooperatives: integrated resource plan.

Existing law requires the Public Utilities Commission to adopt a process for each load-serving entity to file an integrated resource plan, and a schedule for periodic updates to the plan to ensure that load-serving entities meet specified requirements. Existing law requires each load-serving entity to prepare and file an integrated resource plan consistent with certain requirements on a time schedule directed by the commission and subject to commission review.

This bill would provide that, for a load-serving entity that is electrical cooperative, the above requirements only apply if the electrical cooperative has an annual electrical demand exceeding 700 gigawatthours, as determined on a 3-year average commencing January 1, 2013.
