The California Clean Energy Jobs Act makes changes to corporate income taxes and, except as specified, provides $550 million annually from the General Fund to the Clean Energy Job Creation Fund or the Job Creation Fund, for five fiscal years beginning with the 2013-14 fiscal year. The recently signed Senate Bill 73 specifies the details of how the funds will be allocated to California's K-12 schools and community colleges, and includes a number of requirements to ensure Proposition 39 funds deliver the expected energy efficiency and cost savings. The Energy Commission was designated through legislation to lead a process with its counterpart State agencies to develop guidelines. The public will have opportunities to offer public and written comments at future workshops.
