The RFO solicits a broad range of resources including demand side resources, distributed energy resources, energy storage, renewable generation, geothermal, pumped storage, and hybrid energy storage systems. All contracts for resources, including firm energy imports, must have a minimum duration of 10 years. Qualification is measured based on September NQC calculations using marginal ELCCs calculated by the Commission for each resource type for each future online year.
