AI overview
Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E), acting as the Central Procurement Entity (CPE), is issuing a Request for Offers (RFO) to procure Local Resource Adequacy (Local RA) or obtain compensated self-shown commitments for Local RA on behalf of all CPUC-jurisdictional load serving entities (CPUC LSEs) in PG&E's distribution service area. The RFO targets procurement for the 2027, 2028, and 2029 resource adequacy compliance years.
The procurement covers transmission-constrained areas within PG&E's distribution service area designated as Local Capacity Areas (LCAs). PG&E CPE is required to procure or obtain self-shown commitments to meet the 3-year forward multi-year Local RA requirement on behalf of all CPUC LSEs within its electric distribution service area. In 2026, PG&E CPE must procure or obtain self-shown commitments for 100 percent of CPUC's 2027 Local RA requirements, 100 percent of CPUC's 2028 Local RA requirements, and 50 percent of CPUC's 2029 Local RA requirements.
