Accelerating Renewables: Strengthening California’s AB 205 Opt-In Process
This blog post highlights the progress and opportunities created by California’s AB 205 opt-in permitting pathway for accelerating renewable energy.
Read MoreIn California, the front-of-meter (FOM) market, also known as wholesale distributed generation (WDG), is woefully underserved — in part because the full value and benefits of FOM/WDG projects are not recognized and compensated in procurement processes. The Clean Coalition is working to fix this significant market gap.
A crucial market segment
FOM/WDG refers to distributed energy generation, often commercial-scale solar, that interconnects to the distribution grid in front of the customer meter and serves local loads while avoiding any use of the transmission grid. Rather than serving one customer, these systems can serve an entire community, while avoiding the expensive, inefficient transmission lines required by remote power generation.
FOM/WDG provides communities these benefits and more:
FOM/WDG procurement and deployment is unleashed through:
