Universal Citation: 220 MA Code of Regs 220.21

Current through Register 1531, September 27, 2024

(1) Commencing on January 1, 2013 and ending on December 31, 2016, all Distribution Companies shall conduct two joint solicitations for proposals from Renewable Energy Developers.

(2) A Distribution Company may satisfy its obligations under 220 CMR 21.00 through individual competitive solicitations that are independent from the two joint solicitations for proposals from Renewable Energy Developers and, provided reasonable proposals have been received, enter into cost effective Long-term Contracts to facilitate the financing of Renewable Energy Generation under 220 CMR 21.00 if, upon petition to the Department prior to the first joint solicitation, the Department rules that a solicitation by an individual Distribution Company would be more cost effective to ratepayers than said Distribution Company engaging in a joint solicitation.

(3) A Long-term Contract entered into by a Distribution Company shall be filed with and approved by the Department before it becomes effective.

(4) A Long-term Contract must meet the criteria established by 220 CMR 21.00, and other applicable Department precedent.
