The Remote Grid Initiative Sample Clauses

The Remote Grid Initiative. The Remote Grid Initiative was included in PG&E’s 2020 Wildfire Mitigation Plan as a commercially available new technology.3 Remote Grid will enable PG&E to provide distribution service using distributed energy supply to remote customers as an alternative to energy supply through hardened, traditional utility distribution infrastructure. The program leverages clean, emergent technologies such as solar-paired battery storage in a way that is intended to be cost-effective and/or more resilient relative to current distribution service delivery options. Customers served by a Remote Grid would not experience any changes to how they are billed for electric service. Customers will continue to be served under their existing rates and tariffs, as supplemented by the Supplemental Provisions Agreement. The Remote Grids are intended to benefit the customers served by them through: 2 Id., p. 5-19. 3 Id., p. 5-19. • Fewer electric service interruptions due to severe winter weather or PSPS events • Reduced wildfire risk from overhead electric poles and wires • Reliable, clean energy at over twice the grid average level of renewables4 • A permanent, continuous power source that provides service throughout the year PG&E expects that all distribution customers will reap long-term savings and other benefits as a result of lower total costs of service and through reduction of wildfire ignition and other service risks. Specifically, some of the ways in which all distribution customers may benefit include: • Lower cost of service delivery in comparison to hardened distribution infrastructure (e.g. hardened overhead lines or underground conversion) • Lowered cost of vegetation management due to reduced overhead line miles in HFTDs • Lower risk profile of assets in HFTDs • Decreased volume of system hardening line miles, freeing up resources for other locations not well-suited to Remote Grids • Smaller potential footprint of PSPS events • Higher electric reliability/fewer service interruptions due to severe winter weather or PSPS events PG&E is eager to deliver these benefits to its customers and plans to begin the process by providing initial Remote Grid services to willing customers and using the results of those initial installations to refine Remote Grid costs and technology configurations. The process for selection of initial projects and timeline are provided below.
