California Event: White Certificates

As California searches for market-based incentives for energy efficiency and greenhouse gas reductions, white certificates — tradable certificates representing one megawatt of verified electrical savings –are emerging as a promising policy option.

In this one-day seminar, nationally known experts will discuss the benefits and complications of white certificates as well as the ways in which white certificate programs affect incentives for energy efficiency. Following the presentations, Bill Prindle of the American Council for an Energy Efficient Economy will lead a robust discussion on the future of white certificates and California.

This event is hosted by Commissioner Rosenfeld’s office at the California Energy Commission and it is a joint presentation of the CEC, American Council for an Energy Efficient Economy, and the New America Foundation.
