Relating to: on-bill financing of energy improvements and granting rule-making authority. (FE)

AB 867 creates a new program allowing public utilities to finance energy improvements (like solar panels or insulation) at residential properties. Utilities would cover the upfront costs and recover them over time by adding a small, regular charge to the homeowner's utility bill. The Public Service Commission must develop rules to govern this program. This directly affects homeowners seeking energy upgrades and the utilities offering this financing option.
