AGENDA TITLE: Adopt Resolution Accepting and Attesting to Veracity of 2019 Lodi Electric Utility
Power Source Disclosure and Power Content Label Reports and Authorizing
Electric Utility Director to Submit Required Reports to California Energy
Commission
MEETING DATE: November 18, 2020
PREPARED BY: Electric Utility Director
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt a resolution accepting and attesting to the veracity of the
2019 Lodi Electric Utility Power Source Disclosure and Power
Content Label reports and authorizing the Electric Utility Director to
submit the required reports to the California Energy Commission.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: Lodi Electric Utility (LEU) is required to annually disclose the
sources of electricity it sells to consumers using reporting formats
provided by the California Energy Commission (CEC).
Per Assembly Bill 162 and Senate Bill 1305, LEU is required to first submit a Power Source Disclosure
(PSD) to the CEC detailing its actual resource mix for the reporting year as illustrated in Exhibit A. The
CEC then compiles power resource information from all load serving entities to issue a resource mix for
all of California. LEU is then required to provide a Power Content Label (PCL) to its customers and the
CEC showing the percentage breakdown by resource type as illustrated in Exhibit B. Generation data for
both reports is compiled by the Northern California Power Agency (NCPA) and reviewed for accuracy by
LEU staff.
Typically, all reporting activities must be completed by October 1 of each year, including notification to
LEU's customers. However, due to COVID,'the deadline was extended to December 31 this year.
Customer notification will be done via utility bill messaging, LEU's website, social media, and postings at
various City site locations including LEU, City Hall, Carnegie Forum, and the Library.
Including unbundled, renewable energy credits (RECs), more than 30 percent of LEU's electric supply
mix for 2019 was sourced from Renewables Portfolio Standard (RPS) eligible resources. LEU continues
to meet current RPS requirements and is on track to meet its compliance targets through 2024.
Diversification of power resources and investment in renewables to fix costs and mitigate future energy
market price risk supports the LEU Strategic Plan goal of maintaining a cost-effective power portfolio.
On June 17, 2020 and October 15, 2020, the Risk Oversight Committee received the reports and
recommended acceptance and attestation to the veracity of the 2019 LEU PSD and PCL, attached as
Exhibits A and B respectively.
FISCAL IMPACT: Not applicable.
FUNDING AVAILABLE: Not applicable.
