BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) Decision 21-06-035 required all load serving entities (LSE), including community choice aggregators, to procure addition resources for replacement of, among other requirements, replacement of Diablo Ca nyon. The CPUC Decision requires: • Project on line by 8/1/2023, 6/1/2024 or 6/1/2025, with a preference for an earlier COD; • Available for a t erm of at least 10 years; • Must be non-fossil fueled. Pursuant to the Decision, Clean Energy Alliance joined with Desert Community Energy and California Choice Energy Authority in issuing a j oint solicitation in December 2021. The solicitation garnered responses representing over 80 projects. The responses were further refined based on price, location, and eligibility (short-list). Due to the competition that was created by the requirement of all LSEs, many of the short-listed projects either withdrew from the procurement process or changed the terms of their proposal. One of the short-listed projects is a project proposed by Resi Station, LLC. The project meets t he procurement requirements as established by the CPUC. The terms of the proposed agreement are for a period of ten years at a not to exceed amount of $2.0MM. Staff recommends the Board authorize the Board Chair and Chief Executive Officer to execute the final agreement, subject to the Special Transactions Attorney approval.
