Common use of DISCUSSION OF MERIT FOR APPROVAL Clause in Contracts

DISCUSSION OF MERIT FOR APPROVAL. Xxxxxx concurs with PG&E management that the ERP contract amendment merits CPUC approval, although Xxxxxx has a few reservations about the amendment, described in greater detail in the confidential appendix to this report. In Xxxxxx’x opinion the contract amendment offers moderate net value, moderate contract price, high portfolio fit, and high project viability. In Xxxxxx’x opinion, the price change is justified by the projections of Xxxxxxxxx Power’s cash flow model, though it is difficult to assess the quality of inputs to that model in the absence of a consistent historical record of financial performance. The amendment would help contribute to PG&E's efforts to meet its RPS Goals. In particular, the contract amendment would support continued compliance with Executive Order S-06- 06 regarding the goal for biomass-fueled generation in the state. It would protect against employment losses in a locality with a higher proportion of low-income residents than the state at large. Xxxxxx’x opinion is that the special considerations relating to the contract amendment’s support of RPS program goals outweigh the IE’s modest reservations. However, any individual decision-maker’s judgment about the merits of the ERP contract amendment may depend on the policy-maker’s relative emphasis placed on the cost impact of the amendment upon ratepayers or the fairness with how the amendment was negotiated, vs. the contribution of the projects’ continued operation to meeting the state’s biomass-fueled generation goal, and to employment stability.
