Please submit the hybrid combination as two separate bids and note that both bids are linked., Q3: The CEC 2843 Application appears to establish eligibility for the AB 1613 feed-in-tariff which is only available to units < 20 MW., Our facility is much larger.

Please populate the Offer Form with historical data., Q4: I could not find the link to the RFO Registration Form on the RFO website.

Please explain how to determine the Capacity payment using the Capacity Allocation Factors listed in Exhibit D., A: The steps listed below yield capacity payments in line with those calculated using SCE and PG&E factors. Populate a 4 TOD Period x 12 month matrix with appropriate values from the SDG&E table in the PPA. Create another 4 x 12 matrix with hours per TOD period per month. (We recognize that the number of TOD hours per month varies slightly from year to year.) Multiply the values in step 1 by values in step 2. For example, for the cell corresponding to January On-Peak multiply the factor 0.013237 by 63 hours. Divide each of the 48 results from step 3 by 100. After this step is performed the sum of the factors arranged in a matrix of 4 TOD periods by 12 months is 1.0. Use the results from step 4 in the monthly capacity payment calculations for each TOD period., Q7: Under the Economic Curtailment participation section, SDG&E can only exercise curtailment of the facility during times with CAISO Market Prices fall below $0/MWh. What if we wish to offer curtailment when the CAISO Market price is something, other, than $0/MWh?, You may do so. SDG&E has updated the Offer Form to allow the Seller to set the Market price (If other than a $0/MWh price) at which SDG&E can curtail generation. If the Seller would like to offer curtailment at any price input “Mkt” into cell C123 of the ‘9. Contract Pricing’ tab.
