Joint Request for Proposals for Scheduling Coordination Services
SVCE and CCCE seek a Scheduling Coordinator to manage CAISO grid services for their combined 1,038 MW portfolio—8 projects spanning solar, geothermal, and battery storage across Northern California. Services span new resource integration, daily bid strategy and real-time dispatch optimization, CAISO settlement with client-by-client disaggregation, and compliance reporting (RA, RPS, GHG), with optional load forecasting and portfolio modeling add-ons. The SC must handle hybrid solar-storage co-location, multi-PPA aggregation to single resource IDs, and wind/out-of-state resource scheduling, with operations live by July 15, 2021.

AI overview
Silicon Valley Clean Energy (SVCE) and Central Coast Community Energy (3CE) jointly seek a Scheduling Coordinator (SC) to provide CAISO Scheduling Coordination and settlement services for all dispatchable resources currently within their portfolio and future resources. Services include: (1) Resource-based generation services with one-time setup including new resource integration, CAISO data template consistency, optimization modeling, system incorporation, and SC ID establishment; (2) Ongoing generation operations including daily bid strategy development, day-ahead and real-time scheduling/bidding, real-time performance monitoring, outage notifications, CAISO settlements with disaggregation between 3CE and SVCE, metrics reporting, compliance reporting (RA, RPS, GHG), and operational meetings; (3) Optional load-based services priced separately for each client including SC administration, load forecasting, ETRM system setup, and full scheduling cycle services; (4) Optional load/resource optimization services including combined portfolio modeling, criteria development, metrics establishment, and CRR agent services. The successful proposer must demonstrate capability in: effective management of hybrid/co-located solar plus storage resources; aggregation of multiple PPAs to single CAISO resource IDs with disaggregation of settlement results; economic optimization under constraints; optimization of multiple variable resources including wind and out-of-state resources; and integration of load-based and resource-based services. Current portfolio includes 1,038 MW across 8 projects (solar, geothermal, battery storage) with combined capacity shares between SVCE and 3CE. Resource scheduling services must begin no later than July 15, 2021.
