TO: HONORABLE CHAIRPERSON AND MEMBERS OF THE AZUSA UTILITY BOARD
FROM: TIKAN SINGH, GENERAL MANAGER
DATE: JUNE 24, 2024
SUBJECT: APPROVAL OF THE 2023 POWER SOURCE DISCLOSURE REPORT
BACKGROUND:
Senate Bill 1305 (SB 1305), enacted in 1997, requires retail providers to disclose sources of electric
generation by fuel type. Commonly referred to as the Power Source Disclosure Annual Report (PSD), the
City submits this initial information by June of each year to the California Energy Commission (CEC).
Thereafter, the CEC releases the Power Content Label (PCL), a template used by retail providers to
provide information to customers about the utility’s mix of electricity with reference to the mix of
resources used in the State of California for the reporting year. The 2023 PSD and PCL will report that
28.7% of Azusa Light and Water (ALW) electricity retail sales were derived from eligible renewable
energy resources, i.e. 10.1% wind, 16.7% solar, and 1.9% small hydro.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends the Utility Board take the following actions:
1.Approve the 2023 Power Source Disclosure Report and subsequent 2023 Power Content Label
ANALYSIS:
Staff has prepared the City’s 2023 Power Source Disclosure Annual Report. This report claims and attests
Azusa’s procured 2023 power by fuel type.
The CEC regulation was updated with a change that includes a provision that retail providers engage an
independent third party to confirm the veracity of the utility’s claims. The regulation includes an
exemption from this provision “if the governing board approves at a public meeting an attestation of the
veracity of the annual report.” Further, Azusa Light and Water may submit an attestation certifying such
accuracy of the retail electricity product claims as reported.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact associated with the recommended actions of this consent item.
