These recommendations came directly from EDF\u2019s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.edf.org\/strandedassets\">Stranded Assets report<\/a> released last year. The idea here is to minimize bill impact and maximize societal value of electrifying our residential space and water heating.<\/p>\n<p>As shown in a recent <a href=\"https:\/\/ww2.energy.ca.gov\/2019publications\/CEC-500-2019-055\/index.html\">E3 report<\/a>, electrification strategies such as the BUILD and TECH programs are two cost-effective ways to decarbonize a building. Both programs provide additional advantages by allocating 30% of their efforts to lower-income and disadvantaged communities \u2014 further helping to ensure an equitable transition to a carbon-neutral economy.<\/p>\n<p>For technical and economic reasons, there are some buildings that cannot be fully electrified. To help address this problem, EDF has been working with Southern California Gas and San Diego Gas &amp; Electric to provide options for customers to switch to <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.edf.org\/energyexchange\/2019\/04\/15\/not-all-biogas-is-created-equal\">bio gas<\/a>. This agreement is now pending approval, but if it is adopted, it will be another way for customers to decarbonize where they live and work.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Other ways to go green<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Switching our appliances from gas to electric will have important implications for our electricity providers. These providers face a unique challenge as they must ensure they are meeting the state\u2019s emissions targets while also ensuring grid reliability.<\/p>\n<p>Fortunately, in addition to funding these pilot programs for building electrification, the state is also making plans that will ensure a cleaner, more stable electric grid. These plans will result in some major changes in California\u2019s electric portfolio.<\/p>\n<p>The plans will result in approximately 25,000 megawatts of new generation over the next decade, featuring:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>11,000 MW of utility scale solar photovoltaic (which is more than CA has built to date).<\/li>\n<li>8,900 of new short-duration battery storage (eight times more than the national standard).<\/li>\n<li>1,000 MW of <a href=\"https:\/\/arpa-e.energy.gov\/?q=news-item\/why-long-duration-energy-storage-matters\">long-duration storage<\/a><\/li>\n<li>3,400 utility scale wind, with emphasis on off-shore wind.<\/li>\n<li>Other clean firm fuel supplies, such as geothermal.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>California continues to be on the leading edge of decarbonizing our economy. And EDF has and will continue to advocate for new strategies that accelerate decarbonization of the electric supply and the state\u2019s buildings and transportation sectors in affordable and reliable ways.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>California is continuing its leadership on climate change by eliminating carbon from the economy and our daily lives.
