Clarification: California's treatment of imported green electricity credits

In our article "Setting the stage for a market renaissance" (Windpower Monthly, November 2006) a section on California's treatment of imported green electricity credits states that a new law makes credits from facilities put online before January 2005 ineligible for meeting the state's Renewables Portfolio Standard (RPS). The ruling applies only to green credits imported into the state. In-state renewables deployed before January 2005 are eligible for the RPS.
