Qualifying Facilities (PURPA SOC)
Southern California Edison is accepting applications for power purchase agreements under PURPA for qualifying facilities up to 20 MW, offering 12-year terms for new projects and 7-year terms for existing facilities with fixed or delivery-time pricing options. Applicants must hold current FERC qualifying facility certification (Form 556) and submit through SCE's intake process. This program directly supports California's renewable energy development mandate by contracting small-scale generation and cogeneration projects statewide.

AI Overview
The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) issued Decision (D.) 20-05-006 ordering investor-owned utilities to create a new standard offer contract for qualifying facilities of 20 megawatts or less. The contract includes two pricing options: 1) Fixed pricing at time of contract execution, or 2) Pricing at time of delivery. The maximum term is twelve years for new facilities and seven years for existing facilities. Parties interested must first certify or recertify with FERC using Form 556, then submit the completed form along with the SCE QF SOC Intake Application through the PowerAdvocate website. The program is designed under the Public Utilities Regulatory Policies Act of 1978 (PURPA), which encourages development of small renewable generation facilities and gas-fired cogeneration to reduce reliance on fossil fuels nationally.
