Current Status of March 19, 2026 CPUC Voting Meeting Agenda
Some substantive energy items on the March 19 CPUC voting meeting agenda have been delayed until April.
CPUC Voting Meeting Hold List
- ICA Tools: Draft Resolution E-5440 approves remediation plans submitted by PG&E, SCE, and SDG&E to fix problems in their "Integration Capacity Analysis" tools, which estimate how much distributed energy can be added to the grid without upgrades. This item moves to the April 9 meeting agenda.
- ERRA Compliance: A proposed decision approving SDG&E's 2023 ERRA compliance application also moves to the April 9 agenda. As currently worded, the PD would grant SDG&E cost recovery of $215 million.
- Distributed Generation: Draft Resolution E-5436 increases funding for the California Distributed Generation Statistics platform. It moves to the April 30 meeting agenda. If authorized, this item would nearly triple the DG website's current funding and position the platform as a long-term backbone for forecasting, planning, and enforcement.
Consent Agenda Additions
Additionally, the CPUC moved two key Regular Agenda matters to the Consent Agenda, meaning there's a very high likelihood that both will carry.
Those items are:
- Draft Resolution E-5447, which authorizes an agreement between PG&E and STACK Infrastructure for construction of the 115 kV Ringwood Switching Station in San Jose; and
- Draft Resolution E-5433, which approves PG&E’s agreement to energize a new 49-MW data center and computing lab in Sunnyvale for Menlo Equities.
