SB 1420 (Chapter 608, Statutes of 2024)

CEQA Statute and Guidelines (2025 consolidated text) · 2026 edition · updated 2026-10-05 · California

This bill amends PRC Section 21189.81 which defines “energy infrastructure project” for purposes of streamlining CEQA litigation for qualifying projects. SB 1420 excludes from this definition previously eligible renewable energy resources under the California Renewables Portfolio Standard Program that combust, rather than use, biomass fuels. The bill adds to the definition of “energy infrastructure project” hydrogen production facilities and associated onsite storage and processing facilities that do not derive hydrogen from a fossil fuel feedstock and that receive funding from specified state and federal programs.
