Description:

Industrial Decarbonization and Improvements to Grid Operations Program (INDIGO)

This program was created under Assembly Bill (AB) 209 (The Energy and Climate Change budget bill, Chapter 251, Section 12, Chapter 7.6, Article 2, enacted in September 2022).[1] The purpose is to implement projects at industrial facilities that can provide significant benefits to the electrical grid, reduce emissions of greenhouse gases, achieve the state’s clean energy goals, and exceed compliance requirements. Eligible industrial facilities include, but are not limited to, a facility involved with manufacturing, production, and processing of materials and related support facilities. For the purposes of this solicitation, food and beverage production and processing facilities are excluded.

 

Food Production Investment Program (FPIP)

Originally funded from the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund (GGRF), AB 209 codified the FPIP program.[2] The purpose is to implement projects at food production facilities that can support electrical grid reliability and reduce the emissions of greenhouse gases. Eligible food production facilities include, but are not limited to, facilities that are directly involved in food production and processing and related support facilities.
