As part of its program to procure resources sized between 3 and 20 megawatts, Southern California Edison (SCE) has initiated its sixth Renewable Auction Mechanism (RAM) appeal for renewable power.
In this appeal, SCE has sought a total of 104.8 megawatts, with 54.8 megawatts meeting the RAM procurement targets of the utility.
It has also sought 50 megawatts of solar resources to support the launch of SCE's Green Rate program, which is part of the Green Tariff Shared Renewables program developed for SCE, Pacific Gas and Electric Co. and San Diego Gas & Electric.
The last date of submitting offers is 21st August.
Colin Cushnie, SCE vice president of Energy Procurement & Management, said, "Not only are we making progress toward the California Renewables Portfolio Standard goal of delivering 33 percent renewable power by 2020, but with this solicitation we also intend to provide customers who cannot otherwise install solar on their roof an option to source their energy demands directly from solar resources."
