4 STAFF REPORT
Agenda Item # 1.1
AGENDA DATE: August 28, 2025
TO: RCEA Board of Directors
FROM: Eileen Verbeck, Deputy Executive Director
SUBJECT: Member Teleconference Participation
BACKGROUND
Since emergency Brown Act meeting law changes went into effect in 2020 due to the COVID-19 public health emergency, the RCEA Board of Directors, Community Advisory Committee (CAC) and the subcommittees of those bodies met online with no physical, public meeting location.
Governor Newsom signed AB 361 into law in September 2021, which allowed these bodies to continue meeting completely virtually without publishing each member’s participation location while the COVID state of emergency continued and state or local officials recommended social distancing measures or the RCEA Board determined that meeting in person posed health and safety risks.
The COVID-19 State of Emergency ended on February 28, 2023, and RCEA Board and CAC meetings returned to meeting in-person at a physical location, with allowances under existing Brown Act rules or new AB 2449 Brown Act rules should a Board or CAC member need to participate from a remote location for certain reasons. If another state of emergency is declared, these bodies may be able to return to completely remote meetings.
SUMMARY
RCEA Board Directors may attend up to two meetings per year from a remote location without making the location accessible to the public for the following reasons:
1. “Just cause”
a. To provide childcare or caregiving need to a child, parent, grandparent, grandchild, sibling, spouse, or domestic partner;
b. Due to a contagious illness that prevents the member from attending in-person; c. Due to a need related to a physical or mental disability as defined in Government Code sections 12926 and 12926.1 not otherwise accommodated; and d. Due to travel while on official business of the legislative body or another state or local agency.
2. “Emergency circumstance” due to a physical or family medical emergency that prevents the member from attending in person.
If a Board Director would like to attend the meeting remotely due to an emergency circumstance, the Board will take action by majority vote to approve the Director’s remote participation. A vote is not necessary for a request to attend remotely for just cause. A brief 5 description, protecting the Director’s (or Director’s family member’s) medical privacy, needs to be provided in both cases.
The remotely participating Board Director needs to publicly disclose at the meeting before any action (vote) is taken, whether anyone 18 years of age or older is present in the room at the remote location with the Director, and the general nature of the individual’s relationship with the Director.
If the Board Director anticipates needing to participate remotely for more than 2 meetings per year, staff recommends arranging for a publicly and ADA accessible space with visual and audio meeting capabilities from which to participate.
Staff asks to be notified one-week in advance, if possible, of remote meeting attendance so the Director’s publicly and ADA accessible remote meeting address can be published in the agenda, if required per Brown Act open meeting laws.
Current Remote Participation Requests
As of the writing of this staff report, there have been no remote director participation for “just cause” or “emergency circumstances” requests.
RECOMMENDED ACTION (if needed)
Approve teleconference participation request for this meeting by Director pursuant to Brown Act revisions of AB 2449 due to an emergency circumstance to be briefly described. 6 BOARD OF DIRECTORS DRAFT MEETING MINUTES

COMMUNITY CHOICE ENERGY (CCE) BUSINESS – Vice Chair Woo confirmed that a CCE quorum was present.
NEW CCE BUSINESS
8.1 California Community Choice Association (CalCCA) Presentation on Electricity Market Regionalization: the Pathways Initiative and SB 540
Regulatory and Legislative Policy Manager Carlson described how RCEA works with CalCCA to advocate RCEA’s Policy Platform issues. CalCCA Chief Policy Officer and General Counsel Kahl and Senior Market Policy Analyst Carr described efforts at the state legislature to regionalize California’s electricity market. RCEA’s policy platform does not currently include this issue.
Regionalization’s benefits include affordability, reliability and reduced climate impacts. The West-Wide Governance Pathways Initiative is only concerned with the California Independent System Operator’s electricity energy market rule-making function. CAISO would still control the non-electricity market functions of operating the transmission grid, and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission would continue to approve or reject energy market rule changes.
California Public Utilities Commission and other state governing bodies would still control retail rate setting and policy decisions such as greenhouse gas target setting. RCEA has minimal exposure to the sometimes-volatile day-ahead energy market, which the Pathways Initiative should ameliorate.
The directors clarified that while new federal policy allows for more coal energy production, California load-serving entities cannot enter into long-term coal power purchase agreements.
No member of the public commented on this topic.
M/S: Schaefer, Arroyo: Adopt CalCCA recommended position on SB 540. 8 The motion passed with a unanimous vote. Ayes: Arroyo, Diaz, Jorgensen, Scafani, Schaefer, Tuttle, Wilson. Noes: None. Absent: Bauer, Gerace. Abstain: None. Non-Voting: Ramos, Woo.
8.2 2025 California Summer Market Conditions Assessment The Energy Authority (TEA) California Account Director Harr reported that the state has adequate power supply for this summer, the year’s most challenging electricity reliability period. Warmer than normal temperatures are expected, however, and concerning events could still occur in September. RCEA is well-protected from 2025 summer emergency heat event price spikes through its long-term contracts. Ms. Harr described RCEA and TEA summer emergency preparation work done, and ongoing new project grid interconnection and other policy challenges and changes. No member of the public commented on this topic.
M/S: Schaefer, Scafani: Accept 2025 California Summer Market Conditions Assessment.
The motion passed with a unanimous vote. Ayes: Arroyo, Diaz, Jorgensen, Scafani, Schaefer, Tuttle, Wilson. Noes: None. Absent: Bauer, Gerace. Abstain: None. Non-Voting: Ramos, Woo.
NEW BUSINESS
10.1 Humboldt Transit Authority Hydrogen Fuel Project Presentation (Information only) Humboldt Transit Authority (HTA) Transit Planner Qiriazi reported on the agency’s work to transition its bus fleet from fossil fuels to hydrogen and to build a hydrogen fueling station at the corner of V and 1st Streets. The station will service HTA buses and help other local heavy fleet owners, such as sanitation companies, test vehicles. Hydrogen buses can service both HTA’s long-distance rural and long operational hour routes more reliably than battery electric buses.
HTA will phase out its gasoline, diesel and battery electric buses by 2040. The goal of this work is to catalyze a regional hydrogen market and reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
The directors discussed how hydrogen fuel is currently made using natural gas and transported to Humboldt County on diesel trucks. The fuel will eventually be made using renewable energy and transported with zero-emission vehicles and/or be produced locally so it will make possible near-zero carbon emission transportation. There were no comments from the public.
10.2 Cost-of-Service Electricity Rate Setting Design Contract Award Director of Business Planning and Finance Biondini described how a recent lawsuit inspired by Proposition 26 is leading many community choice aggregators to move toward setting electricity rates based on the cost of providing electricity service, rather than solely based on a discount from the local investor-owned utility’s rates as RCEA currently does. Representatives from NewGen Strategies and Solutions, the company selected by staff through a recent request for proposals, described their work plan to produce a defensible cost of service and rate plan study. 9 The directors expressed concern should the study’s proposed rates be higher than PG&E’s rates and the need to educate the public about the valuable services RCEA provides to its customers and community. Staff explained that the Board has decision-making authority about RCEA’s programs and services, how aggressively renewable RCEA’s energy portfolio is, and how quickly to build the agency’s reserves. The public can also express their needs and priorities when RCEA revises its strategic plan.
Coalition for Responsible Transportation Priorities and RCEA Community Advisory Committee member Colin Fiske, commenting as a member of the public, stated that ambitious emissions reduction goals were a core reason for creating RCEA and asked that equitable rate setting support these goals.
M/S: Schaefer, Wilson: Award Professional Services Agreement with NewGen Strategies and Solutions, LLC, for a not-to-exceed value of $116,900 for cost of service and rate design services through July 2026 and authorize the Executive Director to execute the agreement and all associated documents.
The motion passed with a unanimous vote. Ayes: Arroyo, Diaz, Jorgensen, Ramos, Scafani, Schaefer, Tuttle, Wilson, Woo. Noes: None. Absent: Bauer, Gerace. Abstain: None.
STAFF REPORTS
11.1 Executive Director’s Report
Executive Director Burks reported on the well-attended RCEA-Schatz Energy Research Center Battery Energy Storage workshop. Ms. Burks listed many upcoming events in which RCEA will participate to promote community awareness of RCEA’s services. Staff will hold a workshop to gauge interest in local small-scale bioenergy project development involving forestry byproducts, food waste digesters or methane from wastewater treatment.
The CADEMO loan committee approved: making a short-term loan to the CADEMO Corporation through December 12, 2025; the escrow vehicle; and authorized the Executive Director to execute the final short-term agreement with the CADEMO Corporation. RCEA and CADEMO are negotiating the final loan terms. There were no public comments on this report.
FUTURE AGENDA ITEMS
Director Tuttle requested a presentation on virtual power plants at Humboldt County resilience areas such as around grocery stores.
Vice Chair Woo adjourned the meeting at 5:31 p.m.

Agenda Item # 4.4
AGENDA DATE: August 28, 2025
TO: RCEA Board of Directors
FROM: Faith Carlson, Regulatory and Legislative Policy Manager Kyle Groben, Regulatory and Legislative Policy Intern
SUBJECT: Federal Activity Update
SUMMARY
The report provides an update on recent federal actions impacting energy policy, emissions, and federal land use, including significant restrictions and revised assessment criteria for energy projects, changes to transportation policies, and tariffs.
EXECUTIVE BRANCH
As of August 14, 2025, President Trump has signed 191 Executive Orders (EOs), 47 Presidential Memoranda, and 79 Presidential Proclamations in his second term. Since the last Board meeting, there have been a handful of presidential actions related to stationary source emissions, data center infrastructure, federal grantmaking, and tariffs. Please see the attachment for more information.
The implementation of past Presidential Actions continues. • On July 15, in response to Executive Orders “Ending Market Distorting Subsidies for Unreliable, Foreign-Controlled Energy Sources,” “Declaring a National Energy Emergency,” Presidential Memorandum “Temporary Withdrawal of All Areas on the Outer Continental Shelf from Offshore Wind Leasing and Review of the Federal Government’s Leasing and Permitting Practices for Wind Projects,” the Department of the Interior filed “Departmental Review Procedures for Decisions, Actions, Consultations, and Other Undertakings Related to Wind and Solar Energy Facilities.” This procedure requires submission of various actions to the Office of the Executive Secretariat and Regulatory Affairs, subsequent review by the Office of the Deputy Secretary, and final review by the Office of the Secretary.1
1 Actions include: Federal Register notices; notices to proceed; scoping reports; determinations of National Environmental Policy Act adequacy; draft and final environmental assessments; draft, final, and supplemental environmental impact statements; findings of no significant impact; records of decision; approval letters; plans of development; land use plan amendments and revisions; land withdrawals and revocations; areas of critical environmental concern designations; site testing and monitoring authorizations; proposed and final sale notices; lease sales; lease assignments; lease issuances; proofs of construction; site assessment plans; preconstruction environmental surveys; supplemental environmental reports; temporary use permits; access road authorizations; utility corridor concurrences; facility design reports; fabrication and installation reports; certified verification agent approvals; construction and operation plans (COPs); conditions of COP approvals; COP revisions; Engineering and Technical Review Branch recommendation memos; proposed technical and navigational and aviation safety conditions; cable burial risk assessments; oil spill response plans; decommissioning applications; Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act compliance memos; compendium reports; memoranda of agreement; compensatory mitigation plans; historic properties management plans; historic properties treatment plans; performance and reclamation bonding approvals; rental and royalty determinations; cost recovery agreements; financial assurances; rights-of-use and easement; right-of-way (ROW) applications; ROW grants; ROW leases; ROW transfers; leases and ROWs on Tribal lands; Tribal environmental impact reviews; government-to-government Tribal consultations; Wild and Scenic Rivers Act determinations; National Trails System impact evaluations; National Landscape Conservation System coordination; visual impact assessments; visual resource management analyses; cumulative historic resources visual effects analyses; cultural resource consultations; section 106 compliance under the National Historic Preservation Act; consultation under the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act, Endangered Species Act (ESA), Migratory Bird Treaty Act (MBTA), and Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act (BGEPA); permits under the ESA, MBTA, and BGEPA; biological assessments; biological opinions; approval and publication of studies and assessments, including ecological baseline studies; grants; any other similar or related decisions, actions, consultations, or undertakings.
19 • On July 30, in response to the Presidential Memorandum “Temporary Withdrawal of All Areas on the Outer Continental Shelf from Offshore Wind Leasing and Review of the Federal Government’s Leasing and Permitting Practices for Wind Projects,” the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management rescinded all designated Wind Energy Areas on the US Outer Continental Shelf (OCS), which ends the federal practice of designating areas of the OCS for speculative wind development and de-designates previously identified unleased federal waters for wind development.
• On August 1, in response to Executive Orders “Declaring a National Energy Emergency” and “Ending Market Distorting Subsidies for Unreliable, Foreign-Controlled Energy Sources,” U.S Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum signed a Secretary’s Order that states the Department of the Interior will consider a proposed energy project’s capacity density per acre when assessing the project’s potential energy benefits to the nation and impacts to the environment and wildlife. The order states that “(b)ased on common sense, arithmetic, and physics, wind and solar projects are highly inefficient uses of Federal lands.”
Not related to a Presidential Action, on July 29, Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Lee Zeldin released an EPA proposal to rescind the 2009 Endangerment Finding, the regulatory decision that greenhouse gas emissions endanger public health and welfare. This rescission would result in the repeal of all greenhouse gas standards for light-, medium-, and heavy-duty vehicles and heavy-duty engines. Lee Zeldin states that this reversal would save US businesses and families $1 trillion or more. This rescission relies on a July 23 DOE report titled “A Critical Review of Impacts of Greenhouse Gas Emissions on the U.S. Climate” which states that “CO2- induced warming might be less damaging economically than commonly believed, and excessively aggressive mitigation policies could prove more detrimental than beneficial” and that “U.S. policy actions are expected to have undetectably small direct impacts on the global climate and any effects will emerge only with long delays.”
JUDICIAL BRANCH
As a result of legal challenges, on August 11, the Federal Highway Administration unfroze funding for National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Formula Programs. These funds have been frozen since February.
On August 12, response to three June Congressional Review Act resolutions repealing California’s waivers under the Clean Air Act, which previously allowed higher emissions standards, Daimler, Volvo, Paccar, and International Motors have sued the State of California to block it from enforcement of emissions standards. The Federal Department of Justice has filed two related lawsuits.
On August 15, California, 19 states, and Washington, D.C., filed suit against the DOE with hopes to block a funding cap preventing reimbursement for administrative costs associated with energy programs.
Also on August 15, Community Choice Aggregators (CCAs) RCEA, the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (which houses Clean Power San Franscisco), and Marin Clean Energy, alongside a coalition made up of Brightline Defense, 350 Humboldt, California Environmental Voters, the Central Coast Alliance United for a Sustainable Economy, Climate First: Replacing 20 Oil & Gas, International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers Local 639, and Offshore Wind California, filed an Amicus Brief in support of the lawsuit California, Washington, D.C., and 16 other states filed in response to the Presidential Memorandum “Temporary Withdrawal of All Areas on the Outer Continental Shelf from Offshore Wind Leasing and Review on the Federal Government’s Leasing and Permitting Practices for Wind Projects.” The Amicus Brief details public information related to offshore wind in California, referencing RCEA and other CCA inclusion of offshore wind in Integrated Resource Planning and CCA participation in the CADEMO project, an offshore wind project in California state waters.
LEGISLATIVE BRANCH
The implementation of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act is slowly rolling out from the Legislative Branch to the other Federal Branches. For example, on August 7, because of the OBBBA’s elimination of the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund, the EPA announced the elimination of the $7 billion Solar for All Program. $249 million of this funding was available to the California CCAs via the California Public Utilities Commission. Additionally, on August 15, the U.S. Department of the Treasury and Internal Revenue Service released updated guidance on eligibility for clean energy tax credits, implementing energy tax credit changes from the OBBBA and its related executive order.

IMPACTS
Recent changes in federal policies have introduced uncertainty. The consequences of these policy changes will become clearer as ongoing litigation and adjustments take place.
Per an Environmental Protection Agency press release, repeal of the 2009 Endangerment Finding would reinstate consumer choice, giving Americans the ability to purchase a safe and affordable car for their family while decreasing the cost of living on all products that trucks deliver. Emissions could increase if manufacturers reduce their emissions controls due to the policy change.
The One Big Beautiful Bill Act raised carbon capture tax credits, leading the US Energy Information Administration Annual Energy Outlook 2025 to project more CO2 capture at power and industrial plants through the 2030s. However, it also tightened criteria for other resources, and IRS interpretation limits project eligibility before tax credits expire. However, the OBBBA also has resulted in stricter tax credit criteria for other infrastructure, and the IRS’s interpretation of the bill further constrains the ability for projects to become eligible before the tax credits expire. This may lead to increased development costs.
Impacts to the wind industry due to the One Big Beautiful Bill Act and other federal policy changes have resulted in a 50% decrease in wind turbine orders across the first half of 2025 compared to the same time span in 2024. There is risk that if offshore wind is not already under construction, it may not be able to begin construction until the end of President Trump’s term.
ALIGNMENT WITH RCEA’S STRATEGIC PLAN
Staff will continue to track Federal actions and identify those that may impact RCEA’s ability to deliver on the goals and strategies in the RCEA strategic plan.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The Tribal Energy Resilience and Sovereignty project’s $88 million in federal funding has been paused.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Receive federal activity report.

24 STAFF REPORT
Agenda Item # 4.4
AGENDA DATE: August 28, 2025
TO: Board of Directors
PREPARED BY: Brytann Busick, Community Strategies Manager Lexie Perez, Senior Contracts and Grants Manager
SUBJECT: NREN Customer Insights Marketing Services Contract Award Background
The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) issued Decision D.24-09-031, effective September 26, 2024, that approves the Northern California Rural Regional Energy Network (Northern Rural Energy Network or NREN) to deliver energy efficiency programs to underserved rural customers.
Summary
RCEA is the lead administrator for NREN, a collaborative regional partnership designed to bring equitable energy solutions to underserved rural communities. RCEAs seeks professional services to provide a customer insights tool for the NREN to market programs and services, thereby supporting regional coordination, equitable outreach, and program participation across its footprint. A customer insights tool is a software platform that collects, analyzes, and interprets customer data from various sources to understand customer behaviors, preferences, and needs. This tool must meet the unique needs of RCEA and NREN, taking into consideration the regulatory, operational, and marketing requirements for operating rate payer funded energy efficiency programs in California.
See attached Procurement Memo describing staff’s market research and assessment for this procurement, and the determination that BlastPoint is the only existing platform on the market that meets our needs.
NREN staff will use BlastPoint to aid in identifying potential program participants, especially those that are considered “hard to reach” and what messaging channels may be most effective (such as social media ads, direct mailers, email marketing, in person events, Spanish or other translation) to meet NREN program objectives. This information will also be used to demonstrate outreach efforts and scale for California Public Utility Commission quarterly and annual reporting.
Staff seeks approval for this sole-source procurement in accordance with the RCEA Procurement Policy for a two-year agreement with BlastPoint valued at $250,000 to serve the customer analytics and outreach needs of the Northern Rural Energy Network.
FINANCIAL IMPACTS
This professional services agreement has a not-to-exceed budget of $250,000. These expenses will be recovered through the NREN Marketing budget.
Staff report revised, memorandum and
agreement attachments added on 8/27/25.
25 EQUITY IMPACTS
RENs in general, and the NREN in particular, are designed to reach customers that otherwise are not being reached by existing ratepayer-funded programs. Using BlastPoint as NREN customer insights tool will ensure that hard-to-reach, disinvested, disadvantaged, and underserved rural non-residential customers receive information via the methods that they are most likely to respond to about NREN’s energy programs and therefore, are empowered to better manage their energy use and cost through increased awareness, support resources, a trained workforce and access to financing to improve their homes and businesses.
RECOMMENDED ACTIONS
Approve sole-source procurement of a two-year Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) Agreement with BlastPoint, Inc. for Northern Rural Energy Network (NREN) Customer Analytics and Outreach, not-to-exceed $250,000, and authorize the Executive Director to execute all applicable documents.

TO: RCEA Board of Directors
PREPARED BY: Lexie Perez, Senior Contracts & Grants Manager DATE: August 10, 2025
Background
RCEA is the lead administrator for the Northern Rural Energy Network (NREN), a collaborative regional partnership designed to bring equitable energy solutions to underserved rural communities.
Description of Needs and Requirements
To better serve the disadvantaged and underserved community members in the 17-county NREN region, RCEA is in need of a service or platform that provides customer insights. A customer insights tool is a software platform that collects, analyzes, and interprets customer data from various sources to understand customer behaviors, preferences, and needs. This tool must meet the unique needs of RCEA and NREN, taking into consideration the regulatory, operational, and marketing requirements for operating rate payer funded energy efficiency programs in California.
The provided service or platform must:
• Be a no-code application that is accessible/intuitive for non-technical users • Provide the ability for users to perform target marketing and to use market segmentation
• Provide geographic analysis broadly across the entire NREN territory all the way down to smaller regions or communities
• Provide end-to-end marketing automation for multiple modalities • Provide marketing campaign management and orchestration • Track campaign performance across geographic regions and demographic groups • Perform broad analytics that can be tailored to different segments and use cases 27 Justification for Non-Competitive Procurement
In preparation for this procurement, RCEA staff researched available customer insights platforms with a range of functionalities, and assessed their alignment with our needs. The platform vendors/service providers assessed included:
• BlastPoint
• E-Source/Trove
• Bidgely
• Uplight
• Opower
• Brillion
This market research and assessment indicated there was only one particular vendor, BlastPoint, with the ability to fulfill the full list of needs. The other vendors - E Source, Bidgely, Uplight, Opower, and Brillion - focus on niche use cases or lack essential self-service analytics, marketing automation, or broad audience segmentation features.
Basis for Price/Cost Determination
The BlastPoint fee for the two-year contract totals $250,000 ($125,000 per year). This total fee constitutes 16% of the NREN Marketing budget. The NREN Governing Partners have approved the use of this portion of NREN marketing funds for a customer insights tool, as the platform will make NREN marketing efforts much more equitable, efficient, and successful.
RCEA’s fee is at or below what BlastPoint’s other CCA clients are paying, and is approximately 5% below the peer average.
Outsourcing this work to a qualified service provider is necessary as RCEA Staff are not qualified to perform this work.
Conclusion
The Board-adopted RCEA Purchasing and Procurement Policy allows for Sole Source contracting in the event that “there is only one particular vendor able to fulfill the procurement need” due to “lack of competition, copyright or proprietary issues, or a supplier’s unique capability.”
Staff has determined that the BlastPoint platform was the only existing platform on the market that meets our needs and is seeking Board approval for this sole source procurement of services from BlastPoint.

Agenda Item # 4.5
AGENDA DATE: August 28, 2025
TO: Board of Directors
PREPARED BY: Juliette Bohn, Infrastructure Programs Manager Lori Biondini, Business Planning & Finance Director
SUBJECT: Regional Resilience Grant Program Equipment Purchase
BACKGROUND
In December 2023, RCEA was awarded $3 million from the California Governor’s Office of Land Use and Climate Innovation Regional Resilience Grant Program (RRGP) to plan and implement the Energy-Resilient Fire Services in High-Threat Communities project. The project includes installing resilient energy systems (solar plus battery energy storage) at fire stations that serve high-fire risk areas in remote communities in Humboldt County. The project partners (e.g., fire departments, fire districts) will own and operate the energy system equipment once the project is complete. Based on the preliminary designs for each site, five of the sites were determined to be best suited to utilize mobile “solar trailers” that can provide mobile solar plus battery energy storage systems.
Staff solicited quotes from five manufacturers for the cost to provide and deliver five solar plus battery trailer systems with the following specifications:
• Minimum 2kW photovoltaic array with performance warranty • Minimum 24kWh LiPO4 Battery Energy Storage System with performance warranty • Must have AC output capability to provide a connection to the fire stations via a minimum 30A generator cable or better.
• Multiple AC output options
• Mobile trailer that can be towed by a mid-size or full-size vehicle. • Trailer must be CA legal and able to be registered in CA. • Battery Energy Storage System with ability to be charged by auxiliary generator.
Staff received five quotes ranging in prices from $31,420 to $56,702 per trailer. RCEA selected the quote that was the lowest cost, which was submitted by RPS Solar Pumps. At the June 26, 2025, RCEA Board meeting, the Board approved the purchase of five (5) Sun Titan L-30 Power Trailers for a total cost of $157,101. Staff have since determined that an additional project site lacks a structurally suitable rooftop and would require a power trailer instead. The revised total cost of six (6) Sun Titan L-30 Power Trailers is $188,522. 49 SUMMARY
Staff are seeking Board approval to amend the not to exceed amount from $157,101 to $188,522 to accommodate the purchase of one additional Sun Titan L-30 Power Trailer from RPS Solar Pumps.
ALIGNMENT WITH RCEA’S STRATEGIC PLAN
The Energy-Resilient Fire Services in High-Threat Communities project fulfills the following RePower goals:
• Goal # 1.2.1 - Develop Emergency Response Capabilities • Goal # 1.4.8 - Develop Programs that Foster Social Equity • Goal # 2.1.1 - Support Member Agency and Local Government Energy Management • Goal # 2.1.4 - Perform Energy Assessments
• Goal # 2.1.5 - Integrate Distributed Energy Resources • Goal # 2.1.7 - Support and Deploy Microgrids
• Goal # 2.4.1 - Support Customer Installation of Distributed Generation • Goal # 4.1.1 - Maximize the Use of Local Renewable Energy to the Extent Technically and Economically Feasible and Prudent.
EQUITY IMPACTS
The Energy-Resilient Fire Services in High-Threat Communities project furthers the following RCEA Racial Justice Plan initiatives:
External Partnerships and Programs
1. Tribal Engagement:
b) RCEA staff will continue and expand efforts to identify opportunities to collaborate with local Tribes as partners on sustainable energy initiatives.
3. Energy justice in power procurement and energy resource development:
a) RCEA staff will incorporate energy justice best practices and affordability into renewable development and power purchase solicitations and resource planning. b) RCEA will continue to include project location and community benefit in its evaluation criteria for power solicitations, in an effort to contract for projects that benefit racially diverse communities and to avoid projects that are detrimental to those communities. d) For energy projects in which RCEA takes an active role in inception, development, ownership and/or operation, staff will work with private partners to collaborate and inclusively engage with local communities throughout the development process, rather than a “decide-announce-defend” approach.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The proposed amended not to exceed cost of $188,522 is within the budgeted amount for equipment for the project and will be reimbursed by RRGP funding. 50 STAFF RECOMMENDATION
Authorize the purchase of a sixth Sun Titan L30 Power Trailer from RPS Solar Pumps for the Energy-Resilient Fire Services in High-Threat Communities Project and amend the total not-to-exceed amount from $157,101 to $188,522 and authorize the Executive Director to execute all applicable documents in fulfillment of Regional Resilience Grant Program requirements.

52 STAFF REPORT
Agenda Item # 8.1
AGENDA DATE: August 28, 2025
TO: Board of Directors
PREPARED BY: Forrest Novotny, Power Resources Specialist SUBJECT: 2024 Power Source Disclosure Attestation
BACKGROUND
Each year, the Board is presented with RCEA’s power mix from the previous year that was submitted to the California Energy Commission as part of the Power Source Disclosure Program. Staff submitted the 2024 Power Source Disclosure Report (Exhibit A to the accompanying Board Resolution 2025-5) to the Commission by the due date. The report shows RCEA’s annual energy purchases from each generating facility from last year, and percentages of each resource type in the REpower and REpower+ products. Additionally, the Power Source Disclosure includes the greenhouse gas emissions intensity of each product.
Later this year, staff will mail out the 2024 Power Content Label to all current RCEA customers. The Power Content Label includes information from the Power Source Disclosure Report and compares RCEA’s power content and greenhouse gas emissions to the state’s overall mix and emissions. The Commission is delayed in issuing the Power Content Label template this year and will be creating the Label on behalf of each load-serving entity instead. RCEA expects to receive the Power Content Label in mid-September and send the mailers out in the fourth quarter of 2025.
SUMMARY
Staff ask that the Board adopt a resolution formally approving and attesting to the information in the 2024 Power Source Disclosure Report as part of the documentation required by the Commission for compliance with the Disclosure Program.
RCEA’s 2024 REpower power mix was roughly 46% renewable, 13% carbon-free large hydro, and 41% unspecified sources. In comparison, RCEA’s 2023 REpower power mix was 30% renewable, 65% carbon-free large hydro, and 5% unspecified sources. The 2024 renewable percentage was greater than the 2023 levels, while carbon-free percentages fell short of RCEA’s 2023 amounts, resulting in a higher percentage of unspecified power. RCEA was able to increase the renewable attribute mainly due to Sandrini solar coming online late in the year, and the Sandrini replacement product that was claimed per the contract. Short-term financial challenges and delays in long-term renewable energy projects under contract coming online required RCEA to procure more short-term unspecified power in 2024.
Fortunately, due to Sandrini now delivering power for the full year, Foster A and B solar plus storage projects coming online, and the PG&E carbon-free nuclear allocation in addition to our existing contracts, staff have projected that the 2025 portfolio will be 56% Renewable and 44% Carbon Free, with no “Unspecified Power.” This means that in 2025 RCEA will meet its RePower Strategic goal of 53 100% of RCEA’s power mix being from a combination of state-designated renewable energy sources and state-designated net-zero-carbon-emissions sources.
RCEA’s 2024 REpower+ 100% renewable power mix consisted of 33% solar, 33% wind, and 33% small hydro power.
The state’s mix of renewables was 36.9% in 2023 The state’s renewable mix for 2024 is still being calculated.
ALIGNMENT WITH RCEA’S STRATEGIC PLAN
Not applicable, this is a compliance requirement.
EQUITY IMPACTS
Not applicable, this is a compliance requirement.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The RePower Strategic Plan procurement goal will be achieved within budgets set by this Board despite temporary reductions in renewable energy procurement in the past two years due to financial constraints.
In June 2024, the Board voted to reduce the RePower renewable energy procurement goal to the State’s renewable energy procurement targets for the 2024 and 2025 calendar years. At that time, depleted reserves were projected if RCEA continued to pursue the RePower Strategic Plan’s more aggressive renewable purchasing goals amid rising resource adequacy and renewable energy prices.
By February 2025, agency revenue exceeded prior projections. The Board adjusted the agency budget accordingly and decided not to sell renewable energy products in excess of the state standards. The decision was projected to be cost-neutral and resulted in renewable energy procurement that exceeded the State’s standard renewable procurement goal. Reductions in resource adequacy and renewable energy prices in recent months have also helped make it feasible to achieve the Strategic Plan goal while staying within budget.

APPROVING AND ATTESTING TO THE VERACITY
OF THE 2024 POWER SOURCE DISCLOSURE REPORT
WHEREAS, Senate Bill 1305 was adopted in 1997, establishing an Electricity Generation Source Disclosure (also known as Power Source Disclosure or “PSD”) Program, which requires retail suppliers of electricity to annually submit a PSD Report to the California Energy Commission (“CEC”) and to annually mail a Power Content Label (“PCL”) to their electricity customers; and WHEREAS, Redwood Coast Energy Authority (“RCEA”) is a retail supplier of electricity as defined by the PSD Program (Ca. Code of Regs., Title 20, Section 1391(r)); and WHEREAS, the PSD Regulation requiring an annual audit by an outside certified public accountant of the information in the annual PSD Report, was updated effective May 4, 2020, with an exemption from this requirement for retail suppliers that are public agencies providing electric services, provided that the governing body of the public agency approves at a public meeting the submission to the CEC of an attestation of the veracity of the annual report for each electricity product; and WHEREAS, RCEA is a public agency providing electric services; and WHEREAS, the CEC exemption therefore allows the RCEA Board of Directors to approve an attestation of the veracity of RCEA’s 2024 PSD Annual Report provided hereto as Exhibit A.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Board of Directors of the Redwood Coast Energy Authority resolves as follows:
1. The 2024 Power Source Disclosure Report provided as Exhibit A is hereby approved; and

Other Programs to Watch
HR 1 also includes claw backs of funding to various funds and programs where that funding has not yet been committed. This means that some program funding disbursed to state or other program implementors may remain available in the short term but will disappear as it is used up.
For example, the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund was a $27 billion fund to establish two “Green Bank” programs (the National Clean Investment Fund and Clean Communities Investment Accelerator) and the Solar For All program. The Solar for All Program includes $7 billion towards 60 federally awarded grant recipients to enable new or expanded low-income solar programs. The California Public Utilities Commission is one such awardee that has received a funding commitment from the federal government but has yet to implement their program fully. The duration and amount of remaining CPUC funding are uncertain.
Other programs affected by these claw backs include the Diesel Emissions Reductions Program and the EPA’s Heavy-Duty Vehicles program, which both offered grants and rebates for EVs, EV infrastructure, and maintenance. Similarly to Solar for All, funding may still be available until fully spent.
