A.B. 2514 of 2010 required the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) to open a proceeding to determine appropriate targets, if any, for each load-serving entity to procure energy storage. After opening a proceeding in December 2010 to consider the matter, the CPUC adopted an energy storage procurement framework and established a statewide energy storage target of 1,325 MW by 2020, with Southern California Edison (SCE), Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E), and San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E), each responsible for a portion of the total.
| Storage Grid Domain | 2014 | 2016 | 2018 | 2020 | Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| SCE | 90 MW | 120 MW | 160 MW | 210 MW | 580 MW |
| PG&E | 90 MW | 120 MW | 160 MW | 210 MW | 580 MW |
| SDG&E | 20 MW | 30 MW | 45 MW | 70 MW | 165 MW |
| Total | 200 MW | 270 MW | 365 MW | 490 MW | 1,325 MW |
The total requirement for each utility is subdivided between systems installed at the transmission level, distribution level, and customer level.
