CPUC Delays NEM 3.0 Decision Schedule by 2 Months

On April 8, the CPUC delayed the schedule of the NEM 3.0 proceeding by 2 months. Closing briefs were moved from July 19 to September 10.

A Proposed Decision (PD) is to be issued within 90 days of September 10, which means early December. Sage expects there to be at least a month between the PD and the Final Decision at the CPUC commissioners’ meeting in January.

Thus, the anticipated NEM 3.0 CPUC Final Decision is moved from November 2021 to January 2022.

Such delays are not unexpected, and an additional delay(s) could still occur.
