Community choice aggregators can sponsor, develop, finance, and own transmission projects to lower electricity rates.
California AB2396 allows community choice aggregators to sponsor, develop, finance, and own transmission projects. These aggregators, which provide electricity to over 15 million Californians, aim to reduce transmission costs by 20 to 30 percent per line. The bill seeks to address rising electricity rates and the need for up to $63.2 billion in future transmission investments. This measure is part of efforts to encourage public-private partnerships for transmission development.
