FirstEnergy Corp. (FE) on Monday said the utility was seeking to purchase Solar Photovoltaic Alternative Energy Credits and was issuing a Request for Proposal for the purchase of 120,500 credits annually over a two-year period.

FirstEnergy said the purchase would be made on behalf of three of its Pennsylvania utilities -- Pennsylvania Power Co., Pennsylvania Electric Co. and Metropolitan Edison Co.

The Brattle Group will conduct the process, FirstEnergy said, and bids will be due by Feb. 27.

Under Pennsylvania law, a portion of electricity sold in the state by electric distribution companies and electric generation suppliers must come from alternative resources.
