State Energy Resources Conservation and Development Commission: chair: report to the Legislature.
- Requires the Energy Commission chair to provide annual reports to legislative committees on commission activities.
- Mandates reporting on six key energy areas including renewable standards and building efficiency.
- Establishes new requirements for documenting public input from diverse regions across California.
- Requires the chair to report on both successes and challenges in implementing energy initiatives.
Senator Laird's proposal to amend California's Public Resources Code would require the chair of the State Energy Resources Conservation and Development Commission to deliver annual reports to legislative policy committees detailing the commission's activities and planning.
The legislation establishes specific reporting requirements across six key areas of commission oversight: research and development initiatives, building and appliance efficiency standards, energy demand forecasting, thermal powerplant siting, renewable portfolio implementation, and alternative transportation. The chair must outline both previous year activities and future planning for each domain, while documenting the commission's public engagement efforts across California's diverse regions. The annual report would also include an assessment of successes and challenges encountered in executing the commission's responsibilities.
This amendment builds upon existing law that tasks the commission chair with directing staff activities according to established policies. The new reporting framework creates a formal mechanism for regular legislative oversight of the five-member commission's work in energy resource conservation and development throughout the state.
