SB 924: Low-income energy assistance.
<p>The bill amends section 2790 of the public utilities code, focusing on low-income energy assistance. It requires the Public Utilities Commission to consider the overall cost-effectiveness and integration of health, safety, and indoor air quality measures when providing home weatherization services for low-income customers. The commission must prioritize coordinated delivery across different fuel types and housing conditions while ensuring tenant-level benefits in rental properties. Additionally, it mandates reporting on household affordability outcomes and requires meaningful public input and adherence to diverse contracting requirements. The bill also revises the definition of "weatherization" and imposes criminal penalties for violations.</p>
