California lawmakers advanced two bills that could strengthen the state’s virtual-power-plant framework. SB 905 would focus on identifying grid circuits that can support additional load through distributed energy resources such as smaller solar and battery systems. SB 913 would address compensation for customer-sited storage exported to the grid during high-demand periods.
Together, the measures point toward a grid strategy that treats customer equipment as a coordinated resource. The bills were still moving through the legislative process at the time of this report, so compensation rules, eligibility, and program availability would depend on the final legislation and subsequent implementation.
