Business Wire
Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) today announced a
call for proposals for renewable energy developers to build new
projects for a clean energy program available to PG&E
customers.
The sites are for PG&E’s Regional Renewable Choice program
that will expand renewable energy access by enabling customers to
work directly with developers of new renewable projects. Through
the program, customers will have the option to work with developers
and subscribe to the output from a new renewable project equaling
between 25 and 100 percent of their electricity use. Participating
customers will pay the developers for the new energy directly, and
receive a bill credit from PG&E on their monthly energy
statement.
“The Regional Renewable Choice program is part of our ongoing
commitment to support the growth of solar and other renewable
energy sources in California. This program enables our customers to
reduce greenhouse gas emissions from their electricity usage and
allows them to directly be a part of California’s clean energy
future,” said PG&E Vice President of Customer Energy Solutions
Aaron Johnson.
PG&E is seeking proposals from local renewable energy
developers across Northern and Central California to build small-
and mid-sized renewable projects ranging from 0.5 to 20 megawatts
for the Regional Renewable Choice program. The energy for these new
projects can be from renewable resources including but not limited
to solar, wind or biomass.
This program offers renewable energy developers an opportunity
to submit proposals starting April 26, 2017 through noon Pacific
Time on May 26, 2017. Projects will be chosen through a competitive
bidding process and are expected to be selected by August 2017.
This request for offers calls for a development target of 150
megawatts of renewable resources.
To submit a proposal, renewable energy developers can visit the
Regional Renewable Choice website.
The Regional Renewable Choice program is Green-e® Energy
Certified. Green-e Energy is the nation's leading independent
consumer protection program for renewable energy, and sets
environmental and consumer-protection standards established by the
nonprofit Center for Resource Solutions.
