Issue a Request for Proposals and select winning competitive supplier. After the DPU approves the Aggregation Plan, the next step is to procure the electricity supply. The Town will solicit bids from leading competitive suppliers, including those currently supplying aggregations in Massachusetts and other states. The RFP will require that the supplier satisfy key threshold criteria, including: − Licensed by the DPU − Strong financial background − Experience serving the Massachusetts competitive market or municipal aggregations in other states − Demonstrated ability, supported by references, to provide strong customer service In addition, suppliers will be required to agree to the terms and conditions of a Competitive Electric Service Agreement (ESA), substantially in the form of the Town’s model Competitive Electric Service Agreement. The agreement requires the supplier to: − Provide all−requirements service − Allow customers to exit the standard product at any time with no penalty or fee − Agree to specified customer service standards − Comply with all requirements of the DPU and the local distribution company The Town will solicit price bids from suppliers that meet the threshold criteria and agree to the terms and conditions prescribed in the ESA. The Town will request bids for a variety of terms and may request bids for a variety of pricing structures within each contract term. If none of the bids is satisfactory, the Town will reject all bids and repeat the solicitation as often as needed until market conditions yield a price that is acceptable to the Town. The Town will solicit bids both for power supply that meets the Massachusetts Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) requirements and for a greener supply containing additional renewable energy over and above the RPS requirements. The renewable energy in the power supply will be documented using Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs). The Town will seek bids that include RECs from a variety of renewable sources, and will choose the proposal that offers the best combination of environmental benefit and price. The Town will ask bidders to identify the technology, vintage, and location of the renewable generators that are the sources of the RECs. The Town will require that the RECs either be created and recorded in the New England Power Pool Generation Information System or be certified by a third party such as Green−e.
