The Clean Coalition is working with Alameda Municipal Power (AMP) to evaluate options that support continued deployment of customer-sited solar in the City of Alameda, California.
The municipal utility, which provides electric service to approximately 75,000 customers east of San Francisco and south of Oakland, is nearing its 5% aggregate peak customer demand cap for net energy metering (NEM). On June 24,AMP is hosting a town hall meetingon customer-sited solar, and its issues and opportunities, including how to appropriately and equitably integrate solar into the electric grid.
Craig Lewis, Executive Director of the Clean Coalition, will serve as the lead facilitator at this meeting – presenting information on AMP’s current portfolio and NEM successor program options, as well as gathering community feedback. This will be the first of three town hall style meetings regarding Alameda’s energy future.
The Clean Coalition continues to be heavily involved in the California Public Utilities Commission’s proceeding on the development of a NEM successor and has provided consultation to multiple utilities across the country on innovative programs to support the deployment of distributed renewable generation.
