2023 Annual Operations Plan

July 20, 2023

The California Market Transformation Administrator (CalMTA) officially launched in early 2023 as a new, dedicated program focused on delivering cost-effective energy efficiency. CalMTA’s work will also help achieve California’s other goals on greenhouse gas emissions reductions, clean energy workforce development, and energy equity to households and businesses across the state. During this first, critical year, we are ramping up our infrastructure and identifying market transformation initiatives (MTIs) that will bring lasting market changes to accelerate adoption of targeted technologies and practices.

This plan describes the work CalMTA staff and subcontractors have completed to date this year and work that lies ahead to meet our first-year goals.
