AI overview
RCEA's Feed-In Tariff (FIT) Program offers local renewable energy producers the opportunity to sell electricity directly to Redwood Coast Energy Authority (RCEA) under long-term contracts. The program supports Humboldt County's clean energy goals while creating opportunities for local economic growth. The FIT Program is part of RCEA's effort to achieve 100% renewable energy for Humboldt County. It offers standardized 20-year fixed-price contracts for community-scale renewable energy generation and storage projects up to 5 MW in the Humboldt Local Capacity Area. Projects will be paid based on time of generation with a price premium for energy generated during evening peak hours. The program has 15 MW of available capacity with current prices set at $140/MWh for evening peak hours (5:00 p.m. – 9:00 p.m.) and $110/MWh for all other hours. Pricing is subject to periodic adjustments based on the number of applications received in each three-month period. Additionally, bonus incentives are available for the first five years of the delivery period for projects meeting specific criteria. Projects between 1 MW and 5 MW AC must include energy storage with 50%-150% of the generator's nameplate capacity.
