Who is eligible for the CA Industry Assistance Credit?

The CA Industry Assistance Credit is open to all industrial utility customers in eligible industries, including those who get electricity from community choice aggregators and other electric service providers.

The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) determines eligibility for the CA Industry Assistance Credit at the facility level. A facility is a physical property or structure located on one or more contiguous properties, such as a campus, factory, or company headquarters.

If your company owns multiple facilities throughout the state, each facility may or may not be eligible. It all depends on the type of product or service produced by each individual facility.

A facility is eligible for the CA Industry Assistance Credit if it derives most of its revenue from a product, activity or service that has an eligible, three-digit North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) code. Other Food Crops Grown Under Cover requires the full six-digit NAICS Code 111419 to be eligible for the credit.
