San Diego Gas & Electric - BioMAT

The Bio-energy Market Adjusting (Bio-MAT) Tariff is a program offered by San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E) that has been closed to new applications. This program was designed to facilitate bio-energy generation and procurement through a market-adjusting tariff mechanism. The program provided a structured framework for biogas and biomass energy projects to connect with SDG&E's electrical grid and receive compensation for energy generated. The Bio-MAT program represented SDG&E's effort to support renewable energy development from organic waste streams and agricultural residues within its service territory.

The program required applicants to register through SDG&E's online portal, which necessitated enabling cookies and JavaScript in web browsers for proper functionality. Participants had access to a tutorial document and self-help resources to guide them through the application and registration process. The website was maintained by Accion Group, which served as the technical administrator for the Bio-MAT platform.

As of the current status indicated on the program website, the Bio-MAT Tariff Program is closed and no longer accepting new applications or participants. Historical information about the program and its requirements may still be available through archived documentation on the SDG&E website.
