History
• The only procurement plan available to the public is the “Example Chart” presented on page 16 of the February 2022 CAC meeting • During the April 2022 BOD Public Comments session, 4 MAJOR recommendations to improve the CAC chart were identified 03/23/2023
2 The Four Recommendations Are:
1. Every project and its selection factors should be scored numerically on the chart.
2. The quantity of energy storage that each Hybrid project provides should be added to the chart.
3. The quantity of carbon dioxide each project will cause to be emitted should be scored as a negative factor. This is the amount of carbon dioxide that fossil fueled generation emits when wind or sunshine generation is deficient.
4. The percentage of a project’s major components that are to be manufactured in the USA should be scored as a positive factor
