On January 30, 2020, the Microgrid Resources Coalition submitted comments on the Track 1 Microgrid and Resiliency Strategies Staff Proposal issued as part of the California PUC proceeding instituted in its Order Instituting Rulemaking Regarding Microgrids Pursuant to Senate Bill 1339. 

In the comments, the MRC applauds the Commission's decision to establish separate tracks to facilitate prompt action to help permit rapid deployment of microgrids. However, the MRC suggests that, in addition to suggestions in the Staff Proposal, the Commission consider additional urgent action to eliminate the most egregious barriers to microgrid deployment on an expedited basis with the goal that the broadest possible spectrum of new microgrids can be up and running before the next fire season.
