AI overview
San Diego Gas & Electric Company (SDG&E) is issuing a Request for Offers (RFO) to solicit offers from eligible energy generators for renewable energy projects. The RAM program is designed to procure a total of 155 MW over four solicitations. This third solicitation aims to procure 52 MW during this round, with the first two solicitations (November 2011 and May 2012) having resulted in approximately 53 MW of procurement, leaving approximately 102 MW to procure. SDG&E intends to procure 52 MW during this solicitation pursuant to 10, 15 and 20-year Renewable Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) with Independent Power Producers. The RAM program, approved by the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) in Decision D.10-12-048 and modified by Resolution E-4414, Resolution E-4489, and Resolution E-4546, supplements the State's Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) program, complements the California Solar Initiative (CSI) program, and promotes small-scale renewable development with potential local employment opportunities in California. Winning respondents shall enter into a non-negotiable PPA for bundled renewable energy deliveries from eligible renewable resources that meet the criteria described in the RFO documents. SDG&E is not requesting bids for renewable energy credits, feed-in-tariff projects or other RPS procurement activities that currently exist or are being contemplated.
