An organization or individual can submit a proposal to develop an energy efficiency measure to be considered for the California energy efficiency portfolios.

Anyone can submit a proposal for a new measure or measure update. New measure proposals typically originate from Implementers, IOUs, POUs, or Manufacturers. 

Measures initiated and developed by IOUs or POUs can bypass most steps in the Measure Screening phase. However, an IOU or POU may elect to submit their new measure or measure update proposal through the Measure Screening process if they want to receive Measure Screening Committee’s input and feedback.

Once a proposal passes the Measure Screening Committee, the proposal is assigned a “Lead PA.”

The following table shows the list of proposals submitted to the Measure Screening Committee, with the most recent proposal displayed first. Measures that bypass this process are not included in the list.

 
 

“Status” describes the state of each measure proposal:

  • New: the proposal was newly submitted by the Source.

  • Pending: Cal TF Staff has reviewed the proposal, but the Measure Screening Committee has not yet issued a decision.

  • Rejected: the proposed did not pass the Measure Screening Committee. In this case, Cal TF Staff will provide the proposer the reasons for rejecting the proposal.

  • Affirmed: the measure passed the Measure Screening Committee. In this case, Cal TF Staff will assign an IOU or POU sponsor (i.e., “Lead IOU”) to the proposal.

  • Withdrawn: the proposal was retracted by the proposer.

  • On Hold:- Cal TF Staff and the proposer agreed that the proposal will not move forward within the next several months.
