Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the amount necessary to pay monthly for electrical or thermal energy or water or conservation measures for any state agency under an energy service contract, or to pay for conservation measures or electrical or thermal energy or water received by any state agency from cogeneration or alternative energy equipment authorized to be constructed or acquired under this part or Part 10.5 (commencing with Section 15750), is hereby appropriated each fiscal year payable from the fund in the State Treasury from which an agency derives its appropriation for support, and shall become available only if the payments are due during a period that the state is operating without funds appropriated by the Budget Act for that fiscal year or if the amount required to pay the charges has not been included in the Budget Act for that fiscal year and the Department of Finance certifies to the Controller that sufficient funds are available for the support of the agency for these services. Also, in order for the appropriation to be available, the board shall certify that the payments for the year in question are anticipated to be less than would result from the purchase of electrical or thermal energy or water avoided by purchases under this part or Part 10.5 (commencing with Section 15750). This appropriation shall be inoperative as to any facility that is transferred to the jurisdiction of the Department of General Services or another state agency pursuant to Section 15814.17 or 15816, to any facility transferred to a state agency pursuant to a joint powers agreement, or to any facility the title of which has vested in the Regents of the University of California, the Trustees of the California State University, the Board of Governors of the California Maritime Academy, or any community college district pursuant to subdivision (b) of Section 15816.
