Framework for Affordable Electrification in California

Overview

California must transition away from fossil fuels to meet its climate and clean energy goals—but doing so through widespread electrification must be approached thoughtfully to avoid affordability and equity challenges, especially in the building and transportation sectors where much of the future electric demand will come from.
 
This framework lays out a strategic approach to managing California’s electrification transition. It centers on protecting customers from rising electricity costs, service disruptions, and inequities while ensuring public investments deliver long-term value. The framework outlines immediate, near-term, and long-term actions to guide policymakers in making this transition safe, reliable, and affordable for all.
