Duke Filed Reply Comments On Proposed Green Source Advantage Choice Program 

Dockets: E-7 Sub 1289

DEC and DEP joint petition for approval of Green Source Advantage Choice (GSA Choice) program.

The utilities describe the GSA Choice Program as comprising “…a renewable energy offering and an energy storage / other clean energy technology option.  A customer that elects the renewable energy offering then has the option to elect to enroll in the energy storage/ other clean technology option. As discussed more fully below, the Companies’ GSA Choice Program would allow large-load customers, typically industrial customers, to contract with the Companies to provide locally-sourced Clean Energy Environmental Attributes (‘CEEAs’), generated from both utility-owned generation assets and third-party-owned generation assets that have a purchase power agreement (‘PPA’) with either DEC or DEP, or through a three-party agreement between one of the Companies, a renewable developer and the customer in the same manner as the legacy GSA Program. The CEEAs will be sourced from up to 2,200 MWs of utility- owned generation and up to 1,800 MWs of third party owned generation assets that have either entered a two- party PPA with one of the Companies, and/or a three-party GSA Facility PPA (‘GSA Facility’) with one of the Companies, a Renewable Supplier (the developer of the GSA Facility), and an Eligible GSA Choice Customer. The utility-owned renewable energy facilities and the two-party PPAs with one of the Companies are collectively referred to in this Petition as “Available Renewable Energy Resources.”
