Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) has unveiled its Microgrid Incentive Program (MIP), a groundbreaking initiative offering financial support for community, local, and tribal government-proposed multi-customer microgrids. The MIP, a statewide competitive grant program with a budget of $200 million, is set to fuel the development of clean-energy community microgrids in disadvantaged and vulnerable communities across California. The California Public Utilities Commission has greenlit this pioneering program, allocating $79.2 million in project funding for PG&E, $83.3 million for Southern California Edison, and $17.5 million for San Diego Gas and Electric. Projects selected under the MIP stand to receive up to $15 million in award funding for the design and development of multi-customer, front-of-the-meter community microgrids.
