The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide funding to the California Energy Commission through the Self-Generation Incentive Program to fund the installation of energy storage solutions in the form of home batteries. The program provides incentives to rural and low-income customers in specific service territories to purchase and install energy storage systems to increase energy resiliency and mitigate impacts from public safety power shutoffs. Although the current proposal is for a Revolving Loan Fund (RLF), the program could change into a Loan Loss Reserve program, if determined by the State to be more effective. Such a change would require approval by the DOE Project Officer.
