Description

State Solution
(Type of Activity: Policy/Regulation )

Legislature should provide more flexibility within electrification implementation programs, allowing funding to cover coordination, community engagement, and workforce development as deliverables alongside capital installations. 

Existing Examples of Progress: PG&E's program providing free water heaters to any public agency that requests them was named as a model for this approach; described as straightforward and easy to use, demonstrating that removing the application and cost barrier entirely can drive uptake where complex rebate and incentive programs have not.
Region: Central Coast
