Staff Report – Item 1d
Item 1d: Adopt Resolution Authorizing Public Meetings to Continue to Be Held Via Teleconferencing Pursuant to Government Code Section 54953(e) and Making Findings
From: Trisha Ortiz, Assistant General Counsel
Prepared by: Trisha Ortiz, Assistant General Counsel
Date: 6/8/2022

RECOMMENDATION
To continue meetings to be held via teleconferencing pursuant to Government Code Section 54953(e), adopt the attached Resolution 2022-14 making the findings required by Section 54953(e)(3).

BACKGROUND
Pursuant to Government Code Section 54953(b)(3) legislative bodies may meet by “teleconference” only if the agenda lists each location a member remotely accesses a meeting from, the agenda is posted at all remote locations, and the public may access any of the remote locations. Additionally, a quorum of the legislative body must be within the legislative body’s jurisdiction.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Governor issued Executive Order N-29-20, suspending certain sections of the Brown Act. Pursuant to the Executive Order, legislative bodies no longer needed to list the location of each remote attendee, post agendas at each remote location, or allow the public to access each location. Further, a quorum of the legislative body does not need to be within the legislative body’s jurisdiction. After several extensions, Executive Order N-29-20 expired on September 30, 2021.

On September 16, 2021 Governor Newsom signed AB 361, new legislation that amends the Brown Act to allow local agencies to meet remotely during Governor declared emergencies under certain conditions. AB 361 authorizes local agencies to continue meeting remotely without following the Brown Act’s standard teleconferencing provisions if the meeting is held during a state of emergency proclaimed by the Governor and either of the following applies: (1) state or local officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing; or (2) the agency has already determined or is determining whether, as a result of the emergency, meeting in person would present imminent risks to the health or safety of attendees.

Due to the rise in COVID-19 cases caused by the Delta Variant, on September 21, 2021, the Santa Clara County Health Officer issued a recommendation that public bodies meet remotely due to the increased protection provided by social distancing. The Health Officer cited “unique characteristics” of government meetings that lead to increased risk of transmission, including the gathering of people from across communities, the need for everybody to participate (including those who are immunocompromised or unvaccinated), and difficulty ensuring compliance with vaccination and safety recommendations. In addition, the Health Officer has described the new Omicron variant as significantly more transmissible than prior variants of the virus.

On October 13, 2021, the Board adopted its Resolution 2021-23 to authorize public meetings to be held via teleconferencing pursuant to Government Code section 54953(e).

Agenda Item: 1d Agenda Date: 6/8/2022

Page 2 of 2 ends

Within thirty days after the first teleconferenced meeting held under AB 361, and every thirty days thereafter, in order to continue meeting by teleconference, the local agency’s legislative body must find that it has reconsidered the circumstances of the state of emergency and that either: (1) The state of emergency continues to directly impact the ability of the members to meet safely in person; or (2) State or local officials continue to impose or recommend measures to promote social distancing.

On November 10, 2021, December 8, 2021, January 12, 2022, February 9, 2022, March 9, 2022, April 13, 2022, and May 11, 2022 the Board adopted Resolutions 2021-26, 2021-27, 2022-02, 2022-03, 2022-07, and 2022- 11, and 2022-13 authorizing public meetings to continue to be held via teleconferencing pursuant to Government Code Section 54953(e) and directing staff to return with a resolution to make the findings necessary to continue meeting pursuant to Government Code section 54953(e).

STRATEGIC PLAN
SVCE’s Board-adopted Strategic Plan identifies engaging the public as a goal of SVCE and remote meetings will better engage the public as long as COVID-19 is a threat to public health.

FISCAL IMPACT
Continuing to conduct remote public Board of Directors and Standing Committee meetings will not increase the cost of meetings.

ANALYSIS & DISCUSSION
The attached Resolution makes the periodic findings necessary to continue holding meetings under Government Code Section 54953(3). Specifically, the attached Resolution makes findings that the Board has reconsidered the circumstances of the COVID-19 state of emergency and that local officials continue to recommend measures to promote social distancing. As required by Government Code Section 54953(e)(3), the resolution makes the findings and provides that the findings will cover the period of time until the next regular meeting of the Board.

The resolution applies to both the Board of Directors and its Committees.

Staff will continue to monitor the situation and will return to the Board every 30 days or as needed with additional recommendations related to the conduct of public meetings.

Staff Report – Item 1e
Item 1e: Authorize the Chief Executive Officer to Execute a First Amendment to the Agreement with HBT Energy Management LLC for Power Resource Management Services Amending the Term and Not-to-Exceed Amount
From: Girish Balachandran, CEO
Prepared by: Monica Padilla, Chief Operating Officer and Director of Power Resources Kevin Armstrong, Deputy Director of Administrative Services Date: 6/8/2022

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Silicon Valley Clean Energy Authority Board (“Board”) authorize the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) to execute a First Amendment to the HBT Energy Management LLC (“HBT”) Agreement (Attachment 1) to add $160,000 for a total amount not to exceed (“NTE”) $279,600 and extend the term to September 30, 2023. All other agreement terms and conditions remain the same.

BACKGROUND
On July 2, 2021, the CEO approved the HBT agreement (Attachment 2), related to operationalizing projects under long-term power purchase agreements and additional power resources support, in an amount not to exceed $119,600. The operationalizing of SVCE’s projects under long-term power agreements was a critical issue, and SVCE was operating with reduced power resources staff capacity at the time, making it advantageous to engage with an experienced outside consulting firm.

ANALYSIS & DISCUSSION
Since mid-2021, SVCE has added additional staff, but also seen the complexity increase on many of the long-term projects in the portfolio, owing to changes in commodity power market prices, delays due to COVID, and an international trade dispute around solar panel production. As a result, HBT’s experience working on these projects with the developers has proved invaluable, allowing staff to focus their efforts in other areas.

The amendment to the HBT agreement is necessary as the existing dollar amount is not sufficient to cover the ongoing work brought about by the increasing complexities of operationalizing the existing portfolio of long-term projects. The agreement amount for the current fiscal year is being increased by $40,000 to cover anticipated expenses through September, with an additional $120,000 added to cover expenses anticipated for fiscal year 2022-2023, for a total increase of $160,000 to the agreement NTE amount.

STRATEGIC PLAN
Approval of a First Amendment to the Agreement with HBT will directly support Goal 5 of the Strategic Plan, which is to “Acquire clean and reliable electricity in a cost effective, equitable and sustainable manner”.

ALTERNATIVE
If the Board does not approve the amendment, SVCE will need to identify and acquire additional resources to support staff in operationalizing projects. This may cause a delay in bringing these long-term resources into operation and thus delay SVCE’s ability to meet long-term compliance goals and reduce long-term power costs.

FISCAL IMPACT
Approval of this new Amendment with HBT will impact the fiscal year 2021-22 budget by an expected $40,000, with an expected fiscal impact of $120,000 in year 2022-2023, for a total impact of $160,000 over the two fiscal years.

5. STANDARD OF CARE
Consultant agrees to perform all services required by this Agreement in a manner commensurate with the prevailing standards of specially trained professionals in the San Francisco Bay Area under similar circumstances and in a manner reasonably satisfactory to Authority and agrees that all services shall be performed by qualified and experienced personnel. Consultant shall be responsible to Authority for any errors or omissions in the performance of work pursuant to this Agreement.

A. General Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Consultant shall, at its sole cost and expense, defend, hold harmless and indemnify Authority and its elected officials, officers, attorneys, agents, employees, designated volunteers, successors, assigns and those Authority agents serving as independent contractors in the role of Authority officials (collectively “Indemnitees”), from and against any and all damages, costs, expenses, liabilities, claims, demands, causes of action, proceedings, expenses, judgments, penalties, liens, and losses of any nature whatsoever, including fees of accountants, attorneys, or other professionals and all costs associated therewith and the payment of all consequential damages (collectively “Liabilities”), in law or equity, whether actual, alleged or threatened, which arise out of, are claimed to arise out of, pertain to, or relate to the acts or omissions of Consultant, its officers, agents, servants, employees, subcontractors, materialmen, consultants or their officers, agents, servants or employees (or any entity or individual that Consultant shall bear the legal liability thereof) in the performance of this Agreement, including the Indemnitees’ active or passive negligence, except for Liabilities arising from the sole negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnitees as determined by court decision or by the agreement of the Parties. Consultant shall defend the Indemnitees in any action or actions filed in connection with any Liabilities with counsel of the Indemnitees’ choice, and shall pay all costs and expenses, including all attorneys’ fees and experts’ costs actually incurred in connection with such defense. Consultant shall reimburse the Indemnitees for any and all legal expenses and costs incurred by Indemnitees in connection therewith.

B. Intellectual Property Indemnification. Consultant hereby certifies that it owns, controls, or licenses and retains all right, title, and interest in and to any intellectual property it uses in relation to this Agreement, including the design, look, feel, features, source code, content, and other technology relating to any part of the services and including all related patents, inventions, trademarks, and copyrights, all applications therefor, and all trade names, service marks, know how, and trade secrets (collectively referred to as “IP Rights”), except as otherwise expressly provided by this Agreement.

Such costs and expenses shall include reasonable attorneys’ fees of counsel of Authority’s choice, expert fees and all other costs and fees of litigation.

C. The acceptance of the services by Authority shall not operate as a waiver of these rights of indemnification. The hold harmless and indemnification provisions of this Section shall apply regardless of whether or not any insurance policies are determined to be applicable to the Item 1e
Attachment 2
Agreement with HBT Energy Management LLC
DocuSign Envelope ID: F2C119D7-1E48-4528-ADDC-95D8694EDC24 2/21 Version
Liability.

D. Consultant’s indemnifications and obligations under this section shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement.

10. INSURANCE
A. General Requirements. On or before the commencement of the term of this Agreement, Consultant shall furnish Authority with certificates showing the type, amount, class of operations covered, effective dates and dates of expiration of insurance coverage in compliance with the requirements listed in Exhibit "D," which is attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference. Such insurance and certificates, which do not limit Consultant’s indemnification obligations under this Agreement, shall also contain substantially the following statement:
"Should any of the above insurance covered by this certificate be canceled or coverage reduced before the expiration date thereof, the insurer affording coverage shall provide thirty (30) days’ advance written notice to the Authority by certified mail, Attention: Chief Executive Officer." Consultant shall maintain in force at all times during the performance of this Agreement all appropriate coverage of insurance required by this Agreement with an insurance company that is acceptable to Authority and licensed to do insurance business in the State of California.

Endorsements naming the Authority as additional insured shall be submitted with the insurance certificates.

B. Subrogation Waiver. Consultant agrees that in the event of loss due to any of the perils for which he/she has agreed to provide comprehensive general and automotive liability insurance, Consultant shall look solely to his/her/its insurance for recovery. Consultant hereby grants to Authority, on behalf of any insurer providing comprehensive general and automotive liability insurance to either Consultant or Authority with respect to the services of Consultant herein, a waiver of any right to subrogation which any such insurer of Consultant may acquire against Authority by virtue of the payment of any loss under such insurance.

C. Failure to Secure or Maintain Insurance. If Consultant at any time during the term hereof should fail to secure or maintain the foregoing insurance, Authority shall be permitted to obtain such insurance in the Consultant's name or as an agent of the Consultant and shall be compensated by the Consultant for the costs of the insurance premiums at the maximum rate permitted by law and computed from the date written notice is received that the premiums have not been paid.

D. Additional Insured. Authority, its members, officers, employees and volunteers shall be named as additional insureds under all insurance coverages, except any professional liability insurance, required by this Agreement. The naming of an additional insured shall not affect any recovery to which such additional insured would be entitled under this policy if not named as such additional insured. An additional insured named herein shall not be held liable for any premium, deductible portion of any loss, or expense of any nature on this policy or any extension thereof. Any other insurance held by an additional insured shall not be required to contribute anything toward any loss or expense covered by the insurance provided by this policy.

E. Sufficiency of Insurance. The insurance limits required by Authority are not represented as being sufficient to protect Consultant. Consultant is advised to confer with Consultant's insurance broker to determine adequate coverage for Consultant.

F. Maximum Coverage and Limits. It shall be a requirement under this Agreement that any available insurance proceeds broader than or in excess of the specified minimum Insurance coverage requirements and/or limits shall be available to the additional insureds. Furthermore, the Item 1e
Attachment 2
Agreement with HBT Energy Management LLC
DocuSign Envelope ID: F2C119D7-1E48-4528-ADDC-95D8694EDC24 2/21 Version
requirements for coverage and limits shall be the minimum coverage and limits specified in this Agreement, or the broader coverage and maximum limits of coverage of any insurance policy or proceeds available to the named insured, whichever is greater.

11. CONFLICT OF INTEREST
Consultant warrants that it, its officers, employees, associates and subcontractors, presently have no interest, and will not acquire any interest, direct or indirect, financial or otherwise, that would conflict in any way with the performance of this Agreement, and that it, its officers, employees, associates and subcontractors, will not employ any person having such an interest.

Consultant and its officers, employees, associates and subcontractors, if any, shall comply with all conflict of interest statutes of the State of California applicable to Consultant’s services under this Agreement, including the Political Reform Act (Gov. Code § 81000, et seq.) and Government Code Section 1090. During the term of this Agreement, Consultant may perform similar services for other clients, but Consultant and its officers, employees, associates and subcontractors shall not, without the Authority Representative’s prior written approval, perform work for another person or entity for whom Consultant is not currently performing work that would require Consultant or one of its officers, employees, associates or subcontractors to abstain from a decision under this Agreement pursuant to a conflict of interest statute. Consultant shall incorporate a clause substantially similar to this section into any subcontract that Consultant executes in connection with the performance of this Agreement. Consultant understands that it may be required to fill out a conflict of interest form if the services provided under this Agreement require Consultant to make certain governmental decisions or serve in a staff Authority, as defined in Title 2, Division 6, Section 18700 of the California Code of Regulations.

12. PROHIBITION AGAINST TRANSFERS
Consultant shall not assign, sublease, hypothecate, or transfer this Agreement, or any interest therein, directly or indirectly, by operation of law or otherwise, without prior written consent of Authority. Any attempt to do so without such consent shall be null and void, and any assignee, sublessee, pledgee, or transferee shall acquire no right or interest by reason of such attempted assignment, hypothecation or transfer. However, claims for money by Consultant from Authority under this Agreement may be assigned to a bank, trust company or other financial institution without prior written consent. Written notice of such assignment shall be promptly furnished to Authority by Consultant.

The sale, assignment, transfer or other disposition of any of the issued and outstanding capital stock of Consultant, or of the interest of any general partner or joint venturer or syndicate member or cotenant, if Consultant is a partnership or joint venture or syndicate or cotenancy, which shall result in changing the control of Consultant, shall be construed as an assignment of this Agreement. Control means fifty percent (50%) or more of the voting power of the corporation.

13. SUBCONTRACTOR APPROVAL
Unless prior written consent from Authority is obtained, only those persons and subcontractors whose names are attached to this Agreement shall be used in the performance of this Agreement.

In the event that Consultant employs subcontractors, such subcontractors shall be required to furnish proof of workers’ compensation insurance and shall also be required to carry general, automobile and professional liability insurance in substantial conformity to the insurance carried Item 1e

30. FORCE MAJEURE
Consultant shall not be liable for any failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement if Consultant presents acceptable evidence, in Authority’s sole judgment, that such failure was due to acts of God, embargoes, inability to obtain labor or materials or reasonable substitutes for labor or materials, governmental restrictions, governmental regulations, governmental controls, judicial orders, enemy or hostile governmental action, civil commotion, fire or other casualty, or other causes beyond Consultant’s reasonable control and not due to any act by Consultant.

their duties with respect to the Consultant program and who agree to be bound by the nondisclosure and confidentiality obligations of this Agreement. Prior to disclosing any Confidential Information to its employees or representatives, Consultant shall require such employees or representatives to whom Confidential Information is to be disclosed to review this Agreement and to agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement. Consultant shall not disclose Confidential Information or otherwise make it available, in any form or manner, to any other person or entity that is not Consultant’s employee or representative (a “Third Party”), except where that Third Party has separately entered into a nondisclosure agreement with Authority.

5. Notwithstanding the above, Consultant may disclose Confidential Information to the extent required by an order, subpoena, or lawful process requiring the disclosure of such Confidential Information issued by a court or other governmental authority of competent jurisdiction, provided that Consultant notifies Authority immediately upon receipt thereof to allow Authority to seek protective treatment for such Confidential Information.

6. Consultant shall immediately notify Authority if it reasonably believes that there has been unauthorized access to the Confidential Information by a non-authorized person that could reasonably result in the use, disclosure, or theft of the Confidential Information.

7. It shall be considered a material breach of this Agreement if Consultant engages in a pattern or practice of accessing, storing, using, or disclosing the Confidential Information in violation of the contractual obligations described herein. Consultant understands that if Authority finds that Consultant is engaged in a pattern or practice of accessing, storing, using, or disclosing Confidential Information in violation of this Agreement Authority shall promptly cease all disclosures of Confidential Information to Consultant.

Staff Report – Item 1f
Item 1f: Adopt Resolution to Implement SVCE Generation Rate Changes Effective June 2022 From: Girish Balachandran, CEO
Prepared by: Don Bray, Director of Energy Services and Community Relations Amrit Singh, CFO and Director of Administrative Services Date: 6/8/2022

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Board of Directors adopt Resolution 2022-15, authorizing the CEO to implement SVCE generation rate changes, to maintain a 1% discount to updated PG&E generation and PCIA rates effective as of June 9, 2022.

BACKGROUND
At its February 9, 2022 meeting, the SVCE Board of Directors voted to implement new rates effective March 1 st 2022, at a discount of 1% to PG&E’s generation rates. These new rates were assumed in updated budget projections for the remainder of Fiscal Year 2021-22 and have been implemented starting March 1, 2022.

On May 20, 2022, PG&E submitted Advice Letter 6603-E, which outlined numerous detailed updates to PG&E generation and PCIA rates, to become effective on June 1, 2022. This advice letter implements various Commission-approved revenue requirements and rate design changes, including the following:

1. Revised Residential Baseline Quantities

2. Updated Demand Charge Rate Limiter (DCRL) Rate Adder for Agricultural Schedule AG-C

3. Intra-class Revenue Capping between Agricultural Rate Schedules5

4. Schedule SB Rate Design Changes

5. Schedules B-19 and B-20 Rate Design Changes

6. Schedules TC-1 Rate Design Changes

7. Recalculated PCIA and Competition Transition Charge (CTC) Rates based on Updated Generation Allocation Factors

ANALYSIS & DISCUSSION
To remain consistent with the Board’s direction in February, staff recommends that SVCE update all GreenStart generation rates to be exactly 1% below PG&E’s new June 1 generation rates, including surcharges (PCIA and Franchise Fee). This rate design approach has been used since the launch of SVCE and has the advantages of comparability and ease of customer communications in that the generation cost savings will be set at 1% for all customer rate classes.

As shown in the table below, most June 1, 2022 PG&E generation rate and PCIA changes were small, less than 2% up or down. As a result, when new SVCE rates are calculated for June 1, the changes are similarly small, usually less than 2% up or down. Given that SVCE’s discount is 1%, it is important to make these rate changes to ensure that customers are still saving money with SVCE, and that all customers are receiving the same 1% discount relative to PG&E rates.

Item 1f
IA'\ SILICON VALLEY ~ CLEAN ENERGY
Agenda Item: 3 Agenda Date: 12/09/2020

Page 2 of 2 ends

Some specialty rates, such as ‘Standby’ rates used by customers that have large onsite generators, were significantly restructured by PG&E to modify various billing determinants within the rate. These rates are not widely used, but do apply at sites such as waste treatment plants that use locally-generated bio gas to produce electricity for onsite use. SVCE proposes to adjust these rates similarly, maintaining a 1% discount to PG&E rates
The GreenPrime rate, SVCE’s 100% renewable energy option, will remain unchanged. The charge is equivalent to the per unit cost difference between the default energy mix of 50% eligible renewable/carbon free energy and the 100% eligible renewable energy mix. This premium is calculated to be $0.008 per kWh, which is added to the otherwise applicable rate for the default GreenStart service offering.

SVCE’s data and billing services provider Calpine Energy Solutions has pre-loaded the proposed rates and is prepared to apply them to customer bills immediately after Board approval, by June 10, 2022.

STRATEGIC PLAN
The recommendation supports SVCE Strategic Plan Goal 13 – “Commit to maintaining a strong financial position” and the accompanying measures, “Set balanced rates that maintain customer value and support SVCE’s financial stability” and “Balanced budget that achieves cash reserve targets and maintains customer value”.

FISCAL IMPACT
Under this recommendation, some SVCE rates will be going up slightly, and others down slightly. The estimated financial impact for the FY2021-22 will be a small net reduction in revenue between June and the end of the fiscal year in September, likely less than 1% over that period. There will be no significant impact to monies previously committed to SVCE Programs, or credit amounts committed to CARE/FERA customers between April and November of 2022.

ALTERNATIVE
Alternatives include making no changes to the current rate, or establishing a new pricing policy. Making no changes would mean that some customers would no longer pay less with SVCE than PG&E. Establishing a new pricing policy is likely not warranted by these June 1 rate changes, as they are mostly very minor.

A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE SILICON

VALLEY CLEAN ENERGY AUTHORITY APPROVING CUSTOMER

GENERATION RATES
WHEREAS, the Silicon Valley Clean Energy Authority (“Authority”) was formed on March 31, 2016 pursuant to a Joint Powers Agreement to study, promote, develop, conduct, operate, and manage energy programs in Santa Clara County; and WHEREAS, at the June 8, 2016 Board of Directors Meeting, the Board adopted the policy that the Authority’s customer generation rates for the default service will be 1% lower than Pacific Gas & Electric’s generation rates in place as of January 2017; and the policy allows reexamination of the rates, provided significant deviations in market prices or other extraordinary circumstances mandate an adjustment to the rates; and
WHEREAS, SVCE has a need to adopt customer generation rates that are competitive and contribute to the Authority’s cash reserves to allow the Authority to respond to risk, and
WHEREAS, on February 9, 2022, the Board of Directors adopted Resolution No. 2022-06 which approved the methodology for the customer generation rates that currently are in effect; and
WHEREAS, due to the minor changes in the Power Cost Indifference Charge (PCIA) and in PG&E generation rates and for the reasons described in more detail in the agenda report, staff is recommending SVCE update the generation rates to maintain the current generation rate discount at 1%, effective June 9, 2022; and NOW THEREFORE, the Board of Directors of the Silicon Valley Clean Energy Authority does hereby resolve, determine, and order as follows:

Section 1. The Chief Executive Officer is hereby authorized to amend the Authority’s 2022 Electric Generation Rates Schedule adopted by Resolution No. 2022-06 to provide for a 1% discount from PG&E’s generation rates.

Section 2. The Authority’s electric generation rates, set forth in the 2022 Electric Generation Rates Schedule attached, shall become effective June 9, 2022.

Section 3. Resolution No. 2022-06 is hereby rescinded upon the effective date of the 2022 Electric Generation Rates Schedule.

Staff Report – Item 1g
Item 1g: Authorize Funding Allocation for Community Electrification Engagement and Demonstration Programs
From: Girish Balachandran, CEO
Prepared by: Justin Zagunis, Director of Decarbonization Programs & Policy; Tony Eulo, Senior Manager of Public Sector Services; Pamela Leonard, Communications Manager Date: 6/8/2022

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the Silicon Valley Clean Energy (SVCE) Board of Directors approve $1.9M in funding from the 2021 PG&E carbon-free allocation savings for new community electrification engagement and demonstration programs.

EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION
Staff presented the new program ideas at the May 27, 2022 Executive Committee meeting. The Executive Committee expressed support for the program ideas and voted to approve the programs for the board’s consideration on the June 8 board meeting consent calendar.

BACKGROUND
SVCE has run several electrification education and awareness programs. These have predominantly been through digital means or targeted to limited audiences. In 2019, SVCE completed the All-Electric Showcase Awards, which highlighted existing all-electric homes and buildings in the service area. The program offered useful case studies that showed how all-electric was possible, and already being adopted by homeowners and developers, and the timing of the program aligned well with the first reach codes initiative.

In 2020, SVCE launched eHub, a set of online resources to help customers take the guesswork out of going all-electric at home and on the road. The new, online tools were paired with robust digital campaigns including email marketing, to inspire, educate and enable action for customers. While very successful and having reached a significant number of customers, the resources are limited to those with digital access and an email on file with their electric bill account.

SVCE also offered Community Energy Resilience Grants to member agencies as part of its 2020 COVID relief efforts. Some of the awarded projects include solar-plus-battery storage installations on city facilities, which offer wider community education about the importance and benefits of local energy resilience.

The funding source for the new proposed programs is the PG&E carbon-free allocation savings. As a result of the 2018 Power Charge Indifference Adjustment proceeding, the California Public Utilities Commission directed PG&E to allocate carbon-free attributes from its hydropower and nuclear energy sources at no additional cost to CCAs since customers are already paying for it. In 2021, the SVCE Board voted to direct the initial $600,000 in savings to two programs (multifamily EV charger installation and batteries for medical baseline customers) that are launching currently.

Agenda Item: 1g Agenda Date: 6/8/2022

Page 2 of 3 ends

ANALYSIS & DISCUSSION
The next tranche of savings is estimated to be $1.9 million. Staff recommends that this funding be dedicated to initiate three new programs that make going all-electric more tangible to community members. The proposed programs will help advance electrification education through community engagement, offer higher visibility across customer segments, showcase solutions to customers and key stakeholders, demystify all-electric technologies, and provide support to member agencies, community organizations, and others working toward similar goals.

Electrification Grants for Community Demonstration Projects Grant funding of up to $1.2M will be made available to help pay for the incremental cost of electrification for public or community buildings and affordable housing projects. The funds are intended to stimulate and support projects where the budget does not account for all-electric options. Member agencies, schools, libraries, and other public and community buildings would be eligible to receive funds. This would be a competitive solicitation process, and available funds should be able to support two-to-five projects.

Example projects include decarbonization of government-owned buildings and fleets, affordable housing project electrification and/or renewable energy/storage development, and demonstration sites such as libraries or schools that are frequented by the public and can showcase messaging and public-facing communications about the electric upgrades for further community electrification education.

Community Electrification Engagement Grants
This $350,000 grant fund would offer financial support for member agency outreach and engagement activities that support electrification education initiatives led by member agencies, their sustainability commissions, or other partners. This program idea was inspired by a current pilot program launching soon with the City of Mountain View to offer rebates for electric yard care equipment to residents and commercial landscapers. Other kinds of outreach programs that SVCE has received requests to support include EV ride & drives, smart power strip handouts as an engagement tool, and supporting induction cooking education demonstrations. This would be a competitive solicitation process, and two-to-five projects are anticipated.

FutureFit Demonstration Home
As a complement to the physical demonstration projects located at community facilities, this demonstration unit would be mobile and can be placed at community events throughout the SVCE service area, such as art & wine festivals, farmers’ markets, and other large events. The demonstration home will feature all-electric appliances (heat pump heating and cooling, heat pump water heater, induction cooking, smart thermostat, solar+battery, etc.). Designed as an attractive and visually exciting exhibit, the demonstration home will bring electrification education to customers where they are and stand out at events where customers may not otherwise be thinking about energy.

There are many opportunities for this demonstration home to engage local workforce programs in building the unit, or installing the electric appliances, as well as contracting for storage and transport. Staff is looking into getting an electric truck, such as a Ford F-150 Lightning, that could transport the unit, and power it, showcasing the benefits of EVs, solar and storage. There could also be digital resources to go along with the experience to offer customers even more information about electrification. The City of San Jose Environmental Services Department created a similar demonstration unit for their Climate Smart plan, and it included an augmented reality application as part of the tour. The possibilities for this program are endless! The proposed budget for this project is $350,000.

STRATEGIC PLAN
The proposed programs align with the board-adopted strategic plan for the following goals:
• Goal #10: Empower customers with the awareness, knowledge and resources needed to make effective clean energy choices
• Goal #11: Engage a full range of public, private and nonprofit stakeholders to leverage our decarbonization efforts

ALTERNATIVE
If these programs are not approved, staff can return to the board with alternative program proposals or other ways to utilize the 2021 carbon-free allocation savings.

FISCAL IMPACT
The 2021 PG&E carbon-free allocation savings provides an additional $1.9M to the SVCE budget. The budget for the proposed programs is as follows:
• Electrification Grants for Demonstration Projects - $1.2M • Community Electrification Engagement Grants - $350,000 • FutureFit Demonstration Home - $350,000

Staff Report – Item 1h
Item 1h: Adopt Resolution Amending SVCE Conflict of Interest Code to Add Multiple Positions and Amend Position Titles
From: Girish Balachandran, CEO
Prepared by: Kevin Armstrong, Administrative Services Manager Date: 6/8/2022

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt Resolution 2022-16 amending the SVCE Conflict of Interest Code to add multiple positions and amend multiple position titles in the list of designated positions for filing.

BACKGROUND
Shortly after the formation of SVCEA, the Board of Directors adopted a conflict-of-interest code as required by the Political Reform Act, commencing at Government Code Section 81000. The code lists the positions within the Authority that are required to file statements of economic interests (Form 700). As a joint powers authority with members located entirely within Santa Clara County, the County Board of Supervisors is the conflict code reviewing body that is required to approve all changes to the conflict-of-interest code. County Counsel has advised that when positions are added or removed from the conflict code, a new resolution must be adopted approving a new conflict of interest code with the added or removed position(s).

At the September 8, 2021 Board meeting, the Board of Directors adopted Resolution 2021-22 approving the creation of a personnel system to insure equitable and uniform policies and procedures for administering personnel matters in compliance with applicable laws; designating the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) as Personnel Officer; and delegating authority to the CEO to carry out all duties necessary to implement the personnel system.

The last Conflict of Interest Code amendment was approved at the April Board of Directors meeting.

ANALYSIS & DISCUSSION
SVCE has recently undergone an agency reorganization within the authority of the Personnel Officer. As a result of this reorganization, multiple titles that currently exist in the Conflict of Interest Code have changed and new positions have been identified that would require filing.

The following positions currently exist in the Conflict of Interest Code and have had position titles amended:

In accordance with the requirements of the Political Reform Act and the County of Santa Clara, a new conflict of interest code must be adopted by resolution which includes the newly created or identified positions as well as any changes to the existing Conflict of Interest Code. The attached resolution amends Appendix A to SVCE’s code to reflect the addition of the title changes and new positions identified above. The remainder of the Conflict of Interest Code has not been changed.

STRATEGIC PLAN
Not applicable.

ALTERNATIVES
None.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact as a result of adding positions to SVCE’s Conflict of Interest Code.

SILICON VALLEY CLEAN ENERGY AUTHORITY

CONFLICT OF INTEREST CODE
The Political Reform Act (Government Code § 81000, et seq., hereinafter referred to as the Act) requires state and local government agencies to adopt and promulgate conflict of interest codes. The Fair Political Practices Commission (“FPPC”) has adopted a regulation (2 California Code of Regulations § 18730) which contains the terms of a standard conflict of interest code, which can be incorporated by reference in an agency’s code. After public notice and hearing, the standard code may be amended by the FPPC to conform to amendments in the Act. Therefore, the terms of 2 California Code of Regulations § 18730 and any amendments to it duly adopted by the FPPC are hereby incorporated by reference.

This regulation and the text here designating positions and establishing disclosure categories shall constitute the conflict of interest code of the Silicon Valley Clean Energy Authority (“Authority”).

The most current version of 2 Cal. Code of Regs. Section 18730 is available on the website of the Fair Political Practices Commission
(http://www.fppc.ca.gov/content/dam/fppc/NS-Documents/LegalDiv/Regulations/Index/Chapter7/Article2/18730.pdf).

Individuals holding a designated position shall file their Statements of Economic Interests with the Authority’s Filing Official, which will make the Statements available for public inspection and reproduction subject to Government Code section 81008. If Statements are received in signed paper format, the Authority’s Filing Official shall make and retain a copy and forward the original Statements to the Filing Officer, the County of Santa Clara Clerk of the Board of Supervisors. If Statements are electronically filed using the County of Santa Clara’s Form 700 e-filing system, both the Authority’s Filing Official and the County of Santa Clara Clerk of the Board of Supervisors will receive access to the e-filed Statements simultaneously.

Newly Created Position *
* Newly Created Position
A newly created position that makes or participates in the making of governmental decisions that may foreseeably have a material effect on any financial interest of the position-holder, and which specific position title is not yet listed in the Authority’s conflict of interest code is included in the list of designated positions and shall disclose pursuant to the broadest disclosure category in the code, subject to the following limitation: The Chief Executive Officer of the Authority may determine in writing that a particular newly created position, although a “designated position,” is hired to perform a range of duties that are limited in scope and thus is not required to fully comply with the broadest disclosure requirements, but instead must comply with more tailored disclosure requirements specific to that newly created position. Such written determination shall include a description of the newly created position's duties and, based upon that description, a statement of the extent of disclosure requirements.

The short films were judged by a panel of SVCE board members, youth, community leaders, and film industry professionals. The winning films are available at svcleanenergy.org/empower-sv.

Summer Readiness 2022
The California Independent System Operator (CAISO) released the 2022 Summer Loads and Resources Assessment to assess the expected supply and demand that the California grid will experience this summer.

CAISO identifies new resources and battery storage as one of the factors improving grid reliability this summer compared to 2021. The addition of batteries to new projects allows energy produced during low-cost, high-producing times of day to be stored and dispatched during peak evening hours, reducing the strain on the grid when demand is high.

Even with added resources, the assessment states that we are still vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, which is leading to more extreme heat, drought, and wildfires. Going into year three of the drought we continue to see a decrease in hydroelectric supply.

As we head into summer, SVCE will proactively push communications to customers to be aware of the different levels of potential power events and direct them to do their part to conserve energy during Flex Alerts. This includes publishing resources to the SVCE website and proactively communicating via email and social media.

Digital media toolkits will be provided to the board and member agencies to also help with this proactive messaging and calls for conservation when events occur. SVCE will also send out conservation requests via email during any potential power emergency.

Silicon Valley Clean Energy has taken additional measures to ensure a longer-term sufficiency of energy supplies that support the California grid including:
• Procuring adequate supply to meet our demands.
• Invested $1.8 billion in renewable energy projects to come online over the next several years. This includes solar paired with battery storage. One of these new projects came online at the beginning of this year and are contributing to the newly added capacity.
• Contracted for geothermal power, which offers 24/7 baseload renewable energy supply. • Contracted for long-duration energy storage which can dispatch energy during peak evening hours, for up to eight hours; these projects are in development.

Net Energy Metering Update
On May 9, the CPUC reopened the NEM Successor Tariff proceeding (“NEM 3.0”), specifically requesting comments on aspects of the original, December 2021 Proposed Decision (PD). The ruling seeks feedback from parties on the PD’s proposed grid access charge, calculation of non-bypassable charges to NEM customers, export compensation and specific rules for low-income customers. The ruling makes no changes to the PD and SVCE’s position on the NEM 3.0 PD remains unchanged.

SVCE staff have reviewed the ruling and at this time do not intend to file individual comments in the proceeding, though are still considering signing on to the Joint CCAs comments under development. A new PD is expected mid-to late-summer at which point SVCE staff will provide an update to the board. We will continue to develop ideas for customer program offerings for current and prospective solar customers to promote solar-plus-battery installations in alignment with whole-home electrification.

Clean Power Update
Several counterparties to SVCE’s power purchase agreements (PPAs) for solar and energy storage resources have informed SVCE of potential challenges to meeting the terms agreed to under the PPAs. Developers are claiming to Item 2
Agenda Item: 2 Agenda Date: 6/8/2022

Page 3 of 5 ends

be faced with significant obstacles in the supply chain including delays related to COVID-19, interconnection and permitting delays due labor shortages, increasing component and equipment cost, and more recently the U.S.

Department of Commerce investigation into potential tariff circumvention on solar cells from China.

Many of these issues are leading developers to seek delays to major contract milestones including construction start and commercial on-line dates. Some developers are also claiming that projects are no longer economic at previously agreed upon and board-approved pricing and are seeking to renegotiate core pricing terms.

In response, staff is assessing all PPAs for new renewable and storage resources to assess development risk and economic value and benefits to SVCE customers. Staff is also working with developers to determine pre-commercial operation solutions to preserve value for SVCE. Lastly, staff will continue to inform and work with the California Public Utilities Commission of the challenges and risks associated with meeting California’s Renewable Portfolio Standard and reliability goals and intends to work with CalCCA, legislators and the Governor’s Office to explore regulatory, legislative, and other enforcement solutions to address the fundamental market issues for the benefit of customers.

Anti-Dumping and Countervailing Duty
Dept. of Commerce is investigating petition by Auxin Solar that solar cell manufacturers are passing Chinese solar products through Southeast Asia to circumvent anti-dumping rules that limit imports from China Pending investigation findings, retroactive tariffs could be as high as 240% or about 30-40% increase in panel cost
SVCE has heard informally and formally from several developers that investigation could delay their projects Delays are ranging from months to years
Many developers are currently unable to import panels
There has been mounting industry-wide concern around ability of developers to meet contracted project milestones and prices
SVCE's projects could be impacted by this as well
Challenges in solar supply-chain are compounded by increasing costs of lithium, which makes timely delivery of solar plus storage projects more difficult
Lithium prices have increased by more than 1000% since 2020, which strains the economics of the battery storage component of projects

SVCE is collaborating with the state’s TECH initiative on a potential tariffed on-bill financing investment pilot program.

Tariffed on-bill financing leverages bill savings to defray the upfront costs of an energy upgrade, such as a heat pump water heater. On April 15, staff submitted a proposal to the CPUC’s Clean Energy Finance Proceeding, which is looking for more accessible, scalable financing solutions to fund our clean energy transition.

SVCE’s proposal seeks approval of a tariff that would enable the California TECH pilot to move forward, pending Board approval. The Commission’s decision on our proposal is
expected this fall. In the meantime, SVCE is continuing to collaborate with TECH on a detailed pilot implementation plan and participating in a series of meetings to invite stakeholder and community input on our pilot proposal.

On May 9, the CPUC reopened the NEM Successor Tariff proceeding (“NEM 3.0”), specifically requesting comments on aspects of the original, December 2021Proposed Decision (PD). The ruling seeks feedback from parties on the PD’s proposed grid access charge, calculation of non-bypassable charges to NEM customers, export compensation and specific rules for low-income customers. The ruling makes no changes to the PD and SVCE’s position on the NEM

3.0 PD remains unchanged.

SVCE staff have reviewed the ruling and at this time do not intend to file individual comments in the proceeding, though are still considering signing on to the Joint CCAs comments under development. A new PD is expected mid-to late-summer at which point SVCE staff will provide an update to the board. We will continue to develop ideas for customer program offerings for current and prospective solar customers to promote solar-plus-battery installations in alignment with whole-home electrification.

Staff Report – Item 3
Item 3: Amendment to Board Delegated Authority to Participate in the PG&E Voluntary Allocation Market Offer (VAMO) to Allow for the Resell of Excess Allocation to One or More Other CCAs
From: Girish Balachandran, CEO
Prepared by: Monica Padilla, Chief Operating Officer
Charles Grinstead, Senior Manager of Power Resources
Date: 6/8/2022

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends amending the previously delegated VAMO authority, approved by the Board on May 11, 2022, which authorized SVCE’s Chief Executive Officer (CEO) to participate in Pacific Gas and Electric’s (PG&E) Voluntary Allocation Market Offer (VAMO) to include an additional authority which will allow the CEO to resell portions or the entire allocation to one more third parties should SVCE determine the allocation is not required to meet its own long-term procurement directives.

Along with this request, staff is providing an update to a recent ruling which modifies the allocation schedule to allow LSEs to provide information on their Voluntary Allocations in their Renewable Portfolio Standard (“RPS”) Plans and an update regarding a proposed decision determining that PCC0 classifications will be retained and not interpreted as a resale.

BACKGROUND
VAMO
The California Public Utilities Commission (“CPUC”) opened Rulemaking (“R.”)17-06-026 on June 26, 2017, to review, revise and consider alternatives to the Power Cost Indifference Adjustor (“PCIA”). Among other things, D.18-10-019 opened a second phase of the proceeding with a working group process resulting in four decisions to address three specific topic areas: (1) the market price benchmarks, (2) a voluntary prepayment option, and (3) portfolio optimization and cost reduction of the investor-owned utilities’ (“IOUs”) PCIA portfolios. D.21-05- 030 was issued on May 24, 2021, as part of Phase 2 of the PCIA proceeding. Specifically, D.21-05-030 addresses portfolio optimization activities associated with RPS resources subject to PCIA cost recovery. A Voluntary Allocation and Market Offer (“VAMO”) mechanism was adopted, including authorizing a process for the IOUs to allocate a “slice” of an IOU’s entire PCIA-eligible RPS portfolio to eligible load serving entities (“LSEs”) in proportion to their vintaged, forecasted annual load share.

Under VAMO, LSEs have the option to contract for a long-term allocation, short-term allocation, bid to procure a short-term portion of the PCIA portfolio, or decline all or a portion of their allocation. Due to the contract term requirements of SB350, the long-term allocation would be the only contract that would contribute to the compliance requirement.

On May 11, 2022 the SVCE Board unanimously approved delegating authority to the CEO to participate in VAMO up to SVCE’s full allocation, approximately 25% RPS, provided staff determined it was needed to meet RPS requirements and further directed the CEO to report promptly to the Board if an allocation was taken.

34910991v1
Since the May 2022 Board meeting, the CPUC has provided additional information related to VAMO requirements and timeline.

DISCUSSION
SVCE’s PPAs face significant delay and termination risk, especially new build projects for solar and solar with storage. While staff expects to meet the RPS long-term procurement mandates, a portion of VAMO may be necessary if multiple PPAs are terminated. Assessing the exact amount is challenging since it is dependent on the fate of existing executed PPAs, generation from RPS resources on-line and actual load. Therefore, in the event the entire portion of VAMO is not required, SVCE would like to engage in third-party resales of its share, which is permitted under the VAMO rules. Staff has heard from several other community choice aggregators (CCAs) about interest in taking SVCE’s unused allocations.

Due to the nature of the Voluntary Allocation product, SVCE will only engage in transactions that exactly mirror the product mix and term of the underlying VAMO contract. Also, to remain indifferent to pricing, SVCE will only engage in pricing structures tied to the market price benchmark. As a condition precedent to accepting additional allocations of VAMO, SVCE must have an executed third-party contract.

If the Board approves staff’s request for an expanded VAMO authority, the CEO will exercise his authority to participate in VAMO if deemed necessary to ensure compliance with long-term RPS mandates, to meet the Board-approved over-procurement target of five percent or should any third-party execute a resale confirmation prior to the election deadline.

The following is an update and/or clarifications to the VAMO requirements per the CPUC:

1. Decision 21-05-030 Updating the VAMO Schedule
The ruling sets forth a modified procedural schedule for the RPS program. The revised schedule enables timely filing and resolution of matters related to (a) Voluntary Allocation (VA), and/or Market Offer (VAMO) processes for each LSE’s respective RPS Plan by August 15, 2022. With this adjustment to the schedule and the necessary time for processing of contracts, PG&E is requesting for elections of the Voluntary Allocation to be declared by July 8, 2022. Previously PG&E was requiring commitment by the end of May 2022.

2. PCC0 Classification Resolution
On December 8, 2021, the IOUs recommended that RECs eligible for PCC0 classification that are allocated from the IOUs’ PCIA eligible RPS portfolios to eligible LSEs through the Voluntary Allocation process retain their PCC0 classification eligibility, with the same benefits and limitations that apply to the IOUs’ use of PCC0 RECs.

This issue recently reached a proposed decision where the Commission has ruled Voluntary Allocations are not resales for purposes of determining the Portfolio Content Category (PCC) classification of Renewable Energy Credits (RECs) allocated to Power Charge Indifference Adjustment-eligible load serving entities (LSEs) including non-investor-owned utility (IOU) LSEs serving departed load. However, it has been determined that any subsequent transfer/sale of the allocated RECs will be considered a resale, and the REC PCC classification will change pursuant to D.11-12-052 and other applicable Renewables Portfolio Standard (RPS) law and policy.

ALTERNATIVES
As an alternative, SVCE can decide to take the minimum amount of VAMO based on an estimate of need to cover RPS long-term procurement requirements and not resell any excess quantity to another CCA or LSE. If SVCE elects more than is necessary and is unable to resell to another LSE, this will result in a non-optimal portfolio of RPS resources for SVCE.

Item 3
Agenda Item: 3 Agenda Date: 6/8/2022

34910991v1

STRATEGIC PLAN
Participating in VAMO and allowing for the resell of allocation surplus to SVCE’s needs helps meet SVCE’s Strategic Plan; Goal #5: Acquire clean and reliable electricity in a cost effective, equitable and sustainable manner; Measure 1: Achieve SVCE 100% Clean goals; exceed long-term RPS mandate of 65%; meet RA obligations; meet IRP procurement mandates.

FISCAL IMPACT
The PG&E Confirmation, if executed, will begin delivery in January 2023 and funds will be budgeted to cover the cost as part of the fiscal year 2023 budget. Resales of the VAMO contract will not have any impact on SVCE’s fiscal budget as they will be effectuated as a transfer of the allocation.

Staff Report – Item 4
Item 4: Authorize the Chief Executive Officer to Execute Necessary Agreements with California Community Power and Participating Community Choice Aggregators for Renewable Resources from Ormat Nevada Inc. and Open Mountain Energy, LLC From: Girish Balachandran, CEO
Prepared by: Monica Padilla, COO and Director of Power Resources Oren Weiner, Power Resources Manager
Charles Grinstead, Sr. Manager of Power Resources
Date: 6/8/2022

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the Board delegate authority to the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) to execute on behalf of Silicon Valley Clean Energy Authority (SVCE), as a member of California Community Power (“CC Power”), the necessary agreements allowing for procurement of Renewable Portfolio Standard (RPS) eligible geothermal resources and Resource Adequacy (RA) from Ormat Nevada Inc. and Open Mountain Energy, LLC as follows:

1. Ormat Nevada Inc. (Ormat) Portfolio of Geothermal Projects a. Project Participation Share Agreement (PPSA) between SVCE, CC Power and participating community choice aggregators (Attachment 1)
b. Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) - Buyer Liability Pass Through Agreement (BLPTA) between SVCE, CC Power and Ormat Nevada Inc. (Attachment 2)
c. Expected Participation Share of 13.4% or 16.75 MW with quantity not to exceed 20.94 MW d. Delivery term of 20 years starting on or about June 1, 2024 e. Dollar authority not to exceed $256,000,000

2. Open Mountain Energy LLC., Fish Lake Geothermal (OME) a. Project Participation Share Agreement (PPSA) between SVCE, CC Power and participating community choice aggregators (Attachment 3)
b. Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) - Buyer Liability Pass Through Agreement (BLPTA) between SVCE, CC Power and OME (Attachment 4)
c. Expected Participation Share of 14.0% or 1.82 MW and quantity not to exceed 2.28 MW d. Delivery term of 20 years starting on or about April 1, 2024 e. Dollar authority not to exceed $30,000,000

BACKGROUND
Through the 2020 Integrated Resource Planning (IRP) proceeding, the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) had identified the need for additional clean energy resources and capacity including firm and/or baseload clean resources, and storage resources, to enable grid integration of a large fleet of intermittent resources to meet California’s greenhouse gas emission reduction goals and to replace several methane gas once-through-cooling (OTC) power plants that are scheduled to be shut down, and the Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant (DCNPP) slated to retire between in 2024 and 2025.

Subsequently, in June 2021, as part of the 2020 IRP the CPUC issued through a decision order (D.21-06-035) the Mid-term Reliability Procurement Order (“MTR Order”) requiring jurisdictional load serving entities (LSEs), Item 4
/ A"\ SILICON VALLEY
~CLEAN ENERGY
Agenda Item: 4 Agenda Date: 6/8/2022

Page 2 of 7 ends

such as SVCE, to procure and/or develop a collective 11,500 MW of new capacity by 2026. SVCE’s share of the MTR Order is 237 MW which is determined based on SVCE’s load ratio to the CPUC’s jurisdictional load.

Included within the MTR Order is an identified need of 1,000 MW of new incremental capacity from firm clean resources (FCR) delivered from geothermal and/or biomass resources with an on-line date by August 2026.

SVCE’s share of the FCR requirement is approximately 22 MW. In January 2020, the SVCE Board approved a PPA with Ormat Mammoth Casa Diablo IV Energy Project (Orni50) for 7 MW of new geothermal capacity located in Mono County, California which will meet a portion of SVCE’s MTR requirement; materials from that meeting can be found here (Item 8): SVCE Board Meeting, January 8, 2020.

In October 2021, CC Power issued the Firm Clean Energy Resources RFO for resources that meet the CPUC’s requirements set forth in (D.21-06-035) to procure new resources with at least 80% capacity factor that must not be subject to use limitations or be weather dependent required for compliance in 2026.

Offers were due December 13, 2021 and CC Power received bids from 6 bidders and 16 projects with only 5 of the projects located in California. Two bidders were shortlisted, one project from OME and the portfolio of projects from Ormat.

On May 31, 2022 CC Power board of directors (“Board”) unanimously approved Resolutions No. 22-05-03 and 22-05-04 (Attachments 5 and 6) approving and delegating authority to the CC Power General Manager to execution PPAs with OME and Ormat respectively and subsequent PPSA with the participating members once each member receives governing board approval to participate in the projects.

ANALYSIS & DISCUSSION
The two CC Power FCR projects proposed for board approval will continue to bridge the gap towards SVCE meeting CPUC MTR compliance while also providing RPS eligible long-term renewable energy, delivered with a high capacity factor in support of state mandated and board directed RPS goals. Further, because of the firm nature of geothermal resources, both projects are expected to provide a reliable source of RA. The recommended projects are located outside of the California Independent System Operator (CAISO) balancing authority, as such SVCE will need to retain import capability from the CAISO to enable the resources to meet CPUC RA requirements and therefore count towards SVCE's MTR obligations.

Following is a summary of the two projects recommended for approval.

Ormat will provide the project participants a portfolio of new geothermal projects located in California and Nevada. The projects are still under development and the precise capacity per project and available to CC Power is not yet known. At a minimum the portfolio will provide 64 MW and will not exceed 125 MW. As projects materialize, CC Power and the participants will be given the opportunity to elect projects into the portfolio of resources. All projects included in the portfolio will need to meet RPS PCC1 and RA eligibility requirements satisfied by obtaining the necessary import capability rights. In the event SVCE and/or the other participants are unable to obtain import capacity rights for a specific geothermal project, the participants can elect not to include the resource in the portfolio. SVCE’s expected share of the Ormat portfolio is 16.75 megawatts (MW) of capacity and approximately 128,000 megawatt hours (MWh) of energy annually or 3.3% of retail sales.

Ormat is a leading geothermal company, which owns, operates, designs, manufactures and sells geothermal power plants primarily based on the Ormat Energy Converter – a power generation unit that converts low-, medium- and high-temperature heat into electricity. Ormat has engineered, manufactured, and constructed power plants totaling over 3,000 MW of gross capacity and currently owns a generating portfolio of 1,100 MW (net), spread globally in the United States (California, Nevada, Oregon, Idaho and Hawaii), Guatemala, Guadeloupe, Kenya and Indonesia. SVCE along with Central Coast Community Energy and Southern California Public Power Authority are off-takers of Ormat’s Mammoth Casa Diablo IV Energy Project set to come on-line in mid-June 2022.

Project Participation and Recommended Maximum Authority The contract structures utilized for both Ormat and OME, involves CC Power signing a PPA with the project seller and each of the participating community choice aggregators (CCAs) signing a PPSA with CC Power. The structure is similar to the two long duration storage contracts SVCE’s board approved for execution with CC Power. SVCE will be one of many CC Power members sharing in the output, benefits, costs and obligations of the two geothermal projects.

Under the contracts, CC Power will pay the PPA rate and in return will be entitled to all product attributes from the facility, including energy arbitrage, ancillary services, and resource adequacy. Through the PPSA, SVCE will pay for its entitlement share of the projects and in turn receive its share of the attributes and benefits of the geothermal project. The eight participating CCAs will receive an entitlement share of the obligations and benefits associated with its capacity share. Table 1 is the expected entitlement share percentage and megawatts (MW) per participating CC Power member.

100% 125.00 100% 13.00 138.02
Both project PPSAs have a step-up provision capped at 125% of the original entitlement share. The step-up provision is necessary to ensure the PPA between CC Power and the project seller will continue in the event of one or more project participants default. In such case, rather than allowing the PPA to terminate, the remaining participants will increase their entitlement share.

The cap also limits each participants exposure and obligation as shown in Table 2. SVCE’s expected share of the OME agreement is 14.0% or 1.8 MW and 13.4% or 16.75 MWs for the Ormat agreements. The combined expected capacity share is 18.57 MW with a step-up capacity of 4.64 MW for a total of 23.21 MW.

Consistent with the CC Power Board direction for enhanced contracting conditions, the developer will construct the project under a project labor agreement, thus assuring payment of prevailing wages and use of apprenticeship programs. For projects built in Nevada, both developers will adhere to the Nevada prevailing wage requirement with audit, or project labor agreement. Alternatively, developers may apply for and receive Nevada’s Renewable Energy Tax Abatement (RETA) benefits which require construction workforce is paid no less than 175% of the statewide average annual wage and provide adequate health insurance. The projects will also adhere to CC Power environmental and environmental justice conditions.

MTR Order and Compliance
The OME and Ormat projects meet the conditions established in the MTR Order for resources that must be able to deliver firm power (with a capacity factor of at least 80%), minimum ten-year contract term, start date by mid-2026 and ability to meet resource adequacy requirements. In aggregate, the firm clean generation resource mandate for the CCAs participating in joint FCR procurement through CC Power is expected to be 138 MW of nameplate capacity. Once adjusted for effective load carrying capacity (ELCC) the entitlement for the participants in the CC Power FCR RFO decreases to 114 MW of Net Qualifying Capacity (NQC).

In addition to helping meet SVCE’s MTR procurement order obligations, the two geothermal resources have the added benefit of helping comply with California’s RPS mandates under Senate Bill 100 (“SB 100”) which sets a 60% RPS by 2030 and 100% clean energy goal by 2045 and long-term procurement requirements as established by the Senate Bill 350 (“SB 350”).

SB350, passed in 2016, requires Load Serving Entities (LSE) such as SVCE to acquire a minimum of 65% of the state mandated RPS requirement through long-term PPAs (10 years or greater) starting with Compliance Period No. 4 “CP4” (2021-2024). The mandated overall RPS for CP4 is 40%, thus the long-term RPS procurement requirement is 26%. SVCE’s existing PPAs will achieve a combined 37.6% RPS in CP4 from long-term resources. Ormat and OME are expected to come on-line in mid-2024, thus providing minimal contribution towards requirements in CP4. With the inclusion of the two geothermal projects, SVCE’s long-term RPS is 37.95% in CP4, which is above California’s mandated long-term RPS requirement of 26%. For CP#5 and CP#6, SVCE’s long-term procurement is significantly above the minimum procurement targets set by the state. This number represents SVCE position assuming no PPAs are terminated, all contracts are operational based on most up-to-date expected on-line dates, and that the resources perform consistent with the generation profiles provided in the PPAs as well. Table 4 shows SVCE’s progress towards meeting the long-term RPS goals and mandates.

*All Board approved and executed PPAs are included in the table. SVCE is currently in dispute with the developer of one PPA project, which may result in a reduction in RPS of approximately 4%, 6%, and 6% for CP#4, CP#5 and CP#6, respectively.

SVCE’s Board approved the 2021-2030 Integrated Resource Plan (“IRP”) in August 2020; following is a link to the staff report (Item 4): SVCE August 12, 2020 Board Meeting. The IRP identifies a preferred path Item 4
Agenda Item: 4 Agenda Date: 6/8/2022

(“Preferred Plan”) to cost-effectively achieve greenhouse gas emission reduction targets while ensuring a reliable grid. Included in the IRP and SVCE’s strategic plan are annual RPS targets set currently at 50 to 52% growing to 60% in 2030 in line with California’s RPS mandates. The IRP also sets aggressive long-term PPA procurement targets of at least five percent (5%) above the state mandated requirement. This is prudent to ensure compliance given project development, termination and/or energy production performance risk.

Figure 1 illustrates SVCE’s progress towards meeting the Board-approved and state mandated annual RPS targets.

Figure 1: SVCE Annual Renewable Portfolio with All Executed and Proposed Ormat Geothermal Portfolio and OME Fish Lake Geothermal PPAs via CC Power (2021-2030)

STRATEGIC PLAN
Execution of the FCR project agreements via CC Power supports the goals of the Board adopted Strategic Plan including:
• Goal 5 - Acquire clean and reliable electricity in a cost effective, equitable and sustainable manner • Goal 6 - Manage and optimize power supply resources to meet affordability, GHG reduction and reliability objectives

ALTERNATIVE
SVCE can decide to procure firm clean resources on its own and not through CC Power. This alternative is not recommended as SVCE’s requirements are relatively small and would be difficult to procure the exact amount required of SVCE via the MTR Order. Procuring on its own may require SVCE to over-procure while participating through the LDS Project will allow SVCE to minimize the amount of capacity procured.

SVCE can choose not to abide by the MTR Order. Doing so may expose SVCE’s ratepayers to significant cost in the form of “back-stop” procurement undertaken by a central procurement entity in addition to CPUC penalties imposed on SVCE.

FISCAL IMPACT
Ultimate execution of the Ormat and OME agreements will result in cost to SVCE starting in Fiscal Year 2023- 24, which will be included in the budget at that time. Staff’s spending authority over the life of the projects will be limited to the amount recommended including $256,000,000 for Ormat and $30,000,000 for OME.

Additional costs to administer the monitoring and implementation of the FCR Project agreements through CC Power are expected for FY 2022-23 and will be included in the proposed Operating Budget.

With the inclusion of the two proposed geothermal contracts, SVCE’s expected lifetime cost is $2.1 billion as shown in Table 5 below.

At all times after delivery to Buyer of the Facility Specifications for a Facility, Seller shall have “Site Control” for such Facility, which means that Seller or its Affiliates shall own the Site, have a right-of-way with respect to the Site, or be the lessee of the Site under a lease which permits Seller to perform its obligations under the Agreement and the Seller Ancillary Documents. Seller shall provide Buyer with prompt notice of any change in the status of Seller’s Site Control. Seller shall not take any action or permit any action to be taken at or with respect to the Site that has a material adverse effect upon the applicable Facility or the geothermal resource, or the generating capability of the applicable Facility.

Section 3.5 Certification of Commercial Operation Dates. When Seller has determined that all requirements under this Agreement for achieving Commercial Operation of a Facility have been satisfied, Seller shall provide Buyer with a certificate from the Licensed Professional Engineer substantially in the form of Appendix K, together with notice that the other conditions precedent specified in the definition of “Commercial Operation” in Section 1.1 have been satisfied in respect of such Facility. Buyer shall either accept or reject the notice in its reasonable discretion by delivering a notice to Seller in writing within thirty (30) Business Days.

If Buyer fails to respond within thirty (30) Business Days, it shall be deemed to have accepted the notice. If Buyer rejects the notice, Buyer shall state in detail the reasons for its rejection and the Parties shall immediately meet and confer to address Buyer’s concerns. Commercial Operation of the Facility shall be deemed to have occurred on the date that the requirements for Commercial Operation are satisfied, which date may be earlier than the date on which Buyer accepts Seller’s notice that Commercial Operation has occurred and/or the date on which any concerns that Buyer expresses in connection with Seller’s notice are resolved; provided the Parties acknowledge or are deemed to have acknowledged, or it is determined through dispute resolution, that all such requirements for Commercial Operation, as applicable, for such Facility have been satisfied on such earlier date.

Section 3.6 Milestone Schedule. For each Facility that is added to the Project pursuant to the process set forth in Section 3.1, within fifteen (15) days after the close of (i) each calendar quarter from the first calendar quarter following the date on which such Facility is added to the Project until the Construction Start for such Facility, and (ii) each calendar month from the first calendar month following Construction Start until the Commercial Operation Date for such Facility, Seller shall provide to Buyer a Progress Report and agrees to regularly scheduled meetings between representatives of Buyer and Seller to review such reports and discuss Seller’s construction progress. The form of the Progress Report is set forth in Appendix O. Seller shall also provide Buyer with any reasonably requested documentation (subject to confidentiality restrictions) directly related to the achievement of Milestones within ten (10) Business Days of APPROVAL DRAFT Item 4
Attachment 1
CC Power/Ormat Power Purchase Agreement
receipt of such request by Seller. Seller shall achieve each Milestone by the Milestone Date specified therefor in the Milestone Schedule for such Facility, provided that such Milestone Date may be extended by Seller by providing to Buyer notice of such extension at least fifteen (15) days (or, in the event of a Force Majeure concerning which fifteen (15) days advance notice is not practicable, as soon as practicable) prior to such Milestone Date, including the cause of the delay, if known, (e.g., governmental approvals, financing, property acquisition, design activities, equipment procurement, project construction, interconnection, or any other factor) and Seller’s description of its proposed course of action to achieve the missed Milestone by the extended Milestone Date. The date specified for each Milestone shall be the Milestone Date for achieving such Milestone, provided that, if and to the extent such date shall be extended as provided in this Section 3.6, the extended date shall be the new Milestone Date for purposes of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Seller shall not be in default or otherwise have any liability under this Agreement for failing to meet a Milestone Date, other than to the extent provided in Section 3.7 of this Agreement. To the extent that Seller determines that, due to Seller’s inability to satisfy one or more Milestones timely, a Facility is unlikely to achieve Commercial Operation by the Final COD Deadline, Seller shall be entitled to deliver to Buyer a notice that removes such Facility from the Project; provided, however, that if Buyer has notified Seller that the Project Participants have secured Import Capability sufficient to import Capacity Attributes from such Facility into the CAISO Market, then within thirty (30) days after the notice of removal, Seller shall deliver to buyer a Proposed Facility Notice that identifies a replacement Proposed Facility that would use but not exceed such Import Capability and that will achieve Commercial Operation by the Final COD Deadline.

Section 3.7 Performance Damages.
(a) Failure to Achieve Minimum Capacity by the Final COD Deadline. If the Project Net Capacity as of the Final COD Deadline is less than the Minimum Capacity, then, subject to Section 3.7(d), Seller shall pay liquidated damages to Buyer in an amount equal to (“Delay Damages”) of difference
between the Minimum Capacity and the Project Net Capacity per day for each day intervening between the Final COD Deadline and the earliest of (i) the date that the Project Net Capacity becomes equal to or greater than the Minimum Capacity, and (ii) the date that is one hundred eighty (180) days after the Final COD Deadline (“Minimum Capacity Cure Date”). If the Project Net Capacity as of the Minimum Capacity Cure Date is less than the Minimum Capacity, then, subject to Section 3.7(d), (A) Seller shall pay to Buyer an amount equal to (“Capacity Buydown Damages”) and (B) the
Minimum Capacity shall be revised to equal the Project Net Capacity as of the Minimum Capacity Cure Date. Seller shall provide to Buyer a written notice of such revised Minimum Capacity. (b) [Reserved].
(c) Payment of Delay Damages and Capacity Buydown Damages. For each month during which Delay Damages have accrued, within twenty (20) Business Days after the end of such month, Seller shall deliver to Buyer a written statement of the amount of the applicable liquidated damages that accrued during such month in accordance with Section 3.7(a), together with payment thereof. Within twenty (20) Business Days after the Minimum Capacity Cure Date, APPROVAL DRAFT Item 4
Attachment 1
CC Power/Ormat Power Purchase Agreement
-
Seller shall pay Buyer any Capacity Buydown Damages required to be paid to Buyer in accordance with Section 3.7(a).
(d) Delay Damages and Capacity Buydown Damages Cap. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Seller’s obligation to pay Delay Damages and Capacity Buydown Damages, in the aggregate, shall not exceed an amount equal to two hundred percent (200%) of the amount of the Project Development Security (as the same may have been recalculated in accordance with Section 5.9(a)).
(e) Damages that Buyer would incur due to (i) Seller’s failure to achieve a Project Net Capacity that meets the Minimum Capacity by the Final COD Date, or (ii) Seller’s failure to achieve a Project Net Capacity that meets the Minimum Capacity by the Minimum Capacity Cure Date, would be difficult or impossible to predict with certainty, and it is impractical or difficult to assess actual damages in those circumstances, but the Delay Damages and Capacity Buydown Damages set forth in Sections 3.7(a) are fair and reasonable calculations of such damages. Buyer’s right to collect liquidated damages pursuant to Sections 3.7(a) is Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy for any failure by Seller to achieve any required level of Project Net Capacity by the Minimum Capacity Cure Date.

Section 3.8 Notice of Facility Net Capacity and Primary Point of Delivery. At least one (1) year prior to the Commercial Operation Date of a Facility, Seller shall provide notice to Buyer confirming (a) the Facility Net Capacity for such Facility, subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 3.9 below, and (b) the Primary Point of Delivery for such Facility. If Seller proposes to increase the Facility Net Capacity of a Facility or to change the Primary Point of Delivery for a Facility, and the Parties do not mutually agree to the proposed increase to the Facility Net Capacity or the proposed change to the Primary Point of Delivery for a Facility, as applicable, (such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), then, unless Seller withdraws its proposal to increase the Facility Net Capacity or change the Primary Point of Delivery, as applicable, the Proposed Facility will be removed from the Project.

Section 3.9 Revision of Facility Net Capacity. No less than thirty (30) days prior to a Facility’s Commercial Operation, Seller has the right, (a) without Buyer’s consent, to reduce the Facility Net Capacity for such Facility, or (b) with Buyer’s consent, to increase the Facility Net Capacity for such Facility, in either case by providing notice to Buyer stating the reduced or increased Facility Net Capacity (“Revised Net Capacity”) and evidence reasonably demonstrating (i) the sustained operation of the Facility for at least five (5) consecutive hours at a delivery rate of at least ninety percent (90%) of the Revised Net Capacity (net of providing the full requirements for Parasitic Load and net of transmission losses) as measured by the Electric Metering Devices at the Primary Point of Delivery, as adjusted to reflect nominal resource temperature and flow rates and other environmental conditions in accordance with the Performance Testing Conditions Criteria for such Facility, and (ii) the delivery of Energy equal to at least the product of ninety percent (90%) of the Revised Net Capacity for each of one hundred twenty (120) consecutive hours (net of providing the full requirements for Parasitic Load and net of transmission losses) as measured by the Electric Metering Devices at the Primary Point of Delivery, as adjusted to reflect resource temperature and flow rates and other environmental conditions in accordance with the Performance Testing Conditions Criteria for such Facility. Notwithstanding the prior sentence, no reduction to Facility Net Capacity pursuant to this Section 3.9 shall reduce the Minimum Capacity.

APPROVAL DRAFT Item 4
Attachment 1
CC Power/Ormat Power Purchase Agreement
Buyer shall either accept or reject a notice increasing the Facility Net Capacity in its reasonable discretion by delivering a notice to Seller in writing within thirty (30) days. If Buyer fails to respond within thirty (30) days, it shall be deemed to have accepted the notice. If Buyer rejects the notice, Buyer shall state in detail the reasons for its rejection. The Parties shall immediately meet and confer to address Buyer’s concerns. Upon Buyer’s acceptance, or deemed acceptance, of the notice, the Facility Net Capacity will be revised to equal the Revised Net Capacity specified in the notice, effective as of the date that Seller provided its notice to Buyer. If Buyer rejects a proposal to increase the Facility Net Capacity, the Facility Net Capacity will remain unchanged.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the first sentence of this Section 3.9, if Seller provides a notice revising the Facility Net Capacity of more than one Facility that will deliver Energy to the same Primary Point of Delivery, then if the aggregate Facility Net Capacities of all such Facilities does not increase, then Buyer’s consent shall not be required to increase the Facility Net Capacity of any individual Facility.

Section 3.10 Delivery of Energy Prior to Commercial Operation Date. For each Facility, prior to the Commercial Operation Date of such Facility, Seller shall sell and deliver to the Points of Delivery, and Buyer shall purchase and receive at and from the Points of Delivery, the Delivered Energy associated with such Facility for a maximum of thirty (30) days at the price set forth in Section 1 of Appendix A; provided, in no event shall Buyer be obligated to purchase or receive Delivered Energy in excess of the Maximum Generation unless Buyer shall by notice given to Seller elect to purchase any such Energy in excess of Maximum Generation. For avoidance of doubt, Buyer shall have no obligation to purchase and receive Delivered Energy for more than thirty (30) days from any Facility that has not achieved Commercial Operation.

Section 3.11 Facility Removal for Failure to Obtain CEC Certification. Seller shall remove from the Project any Facility or Facilities that have achieved Commercial Operation under this Agreement but have not been CEC Certified by the date that is (a) one hundred eighty (180) days following such Facility’s Commercial Operation Date if such failure to be CEC Certified is the result of Seller’s fault or negligence (including any failure to submit timely required documentation to the CEC) or (b) three hundred sixty (360) days following such Facility’s Commercial Operation Date if such failure to be CEC Certified is not the result of Seller’s fault or negligence. Seller shall provide notice to Buyer and remove such Facility from the Project and upon delivery of such notice the Project Net Capacity will be reduced by the amount of the Facility Net Capacity associated with such Facility and the Guaranteed Generation reduced in accordance with the reduced Project Net Capacity. If such Facility removal occurs after the Minimum Capacity Cure Date, Buyer shall calculate in a commercially reasonable manner, and consistent with Section

13.3(b), the positive amount, if any, calculated as its Costs, plus Losses, minus Gains with respect to such reduction in Project Net Capacity; provided, Costs, Losses and Gains shall all be determined with respect to the reduction in Project Net Capacity rather than with respect to termination of all obligations under this Agreement, and further provided that, if the result of the foregoing calculation is negative, no amount shall be due to Seller. As soon as reasonably practical, Buyer shall provide notice to Seller of such damages along with a demand for payment, which demand shall be provided with a written statement explaining in reasonable detail the calculation of the demanded amount. Within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such demand and written statement, Seller shall pay the undisputed amount of such demand and provide written notice of any disputed amount (if any), which dispute shall be resolved in accordance with Section 14.3. If Buyer prevails in any such dispute, then Seller shall pay the amount determined to be due to Buyer, APPROVAL DRAFT Item 4
Attachment 1
CC Power/Ormat Power Purchase Agreement
together with interest on such amount calculated at the Interest Rate from the original due date until the date paid. If, before the dispute is resolved, Buyer draws on the Delivery Term Security for any disputed amount and Seller thereafter prevails in the dispute, then Buyer (i) shall be required to refund the amount of the erroneous draw, together with interest calculated at the Interest Rate from the date of the draw through the date of refund and (ii) shall pay to Seller any documented costs and expenses incurred by Seller due to the erroneous draw on the Delivery Term Security. If Seller fails to pay or dispute the amount of a demand within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of Buyer’s demand and supporting written statement, then Buyer shall be entitled to draw from the Delivery Term Security the unpaid amount. Payment of the damages as described in this Section 3.11 are Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedies for Seller’s failure to obtain CEC Certification for a Facility.

Section 3.12 [Reserved].

Section 3.13 Decommissioning and Other Costs. Buyer shall not be responsible for any cost of decommissioning or demolition of any Facility or any part thereof or any environmental or other liability associated with the decommissioning or demolition without regard to the timing or cause of the decommissioning or demolition.

PURCHASE AND SALE OF POWER
Section 6.1 Purchases by Buyer.
(a) For all Delivered Energy comprised of Facility Energy from a Facility prior to its Commercial Operation Date, Seller shall sell and deliver, and Buyer shall purchase and receive, such Delivered Energy in accordance with Section 3.10. (b) For all Delivered Energy comprised of Facility Energy from a Facility after its Commercial Operation Date, Seller shall sell and deliver, and Buyer shall purchase and receive, all such Delivered Energy and all Replacement Energy for the price set forth in Section 2 of Appendix A; provided that, in no event shall Buyer be obligated to purchase or receive Delivered Energy in excess of the Maximum Generation unless Buyer shall by notice given to Seller elect to purchase any such Energy in excess of Maximum Generation. (c) Notwithstanding Section 6.1(b), during the period of time between the day that is one hundred eighty (180) days following the Commercial Operation Date of a Facility and the day that is one (1) day following the date upon which Buyer receives evidence that such Facility is CEC Certified, Buyer may retain a portion of any payment to be made to Seller hereunder associated with the Delivered Energy from such Facility in an amount equal to the positive difference between (1) the price of the Delivered Energy pursuant to Section 6.1(b), and (2) the average of the on-peak and off-peak Energy prices, weighted by the number of hours in the on-peak and off-peak periods, during the month in which the deliveries occurred for Energy that is not from an Eligible Renewable Energy Resource under the RPS, as listed in the Intercontinental Exchange Palo Verde Electricity Price Index or its successor index, or any other index mutually agreed by the Parties. Buyer shall release such retained amount, which shall not be calculated with interest of any kind, within forty-five (45) days following the receipt of evidence satisfactory to Buyer from Seller that the Facility is CEC Certified. Within thirty (30) days after any removal of a Facility under Section 3.11, Seller shall refund to Buyer, for Delivered Energy associated with APPROVAL DRAFT Item 4
Attachment 1
CC Power/Ormat Power Purchase Agreement
such Facility and purchased by Buyer during the first one hundred eighty (180) days following the Commercial Operation Date of such Facility that has not been CEC Certified at the price set forth in paragraph 2 of Appendix A, the positive difference between (1) the price paid by Buyer and (2) the average of the on-peak and off-peak Energy prices, weighted by the number of hours in the on-peak and off-peak periods, during the month or months in which the deliveries of such Delivered Energy occurred for Energy that is not from an Eligible Renewable Energy Resource under the RPS, as listed in the Intercontinental Exchange Palo Verde Electricity Price Index or its successor index, or any other index mutually agreed by the Parties. Upon such removal, Seller shall have no obligation to transfer any Green Attributes related to the Delivered Energy from the removed Facility.
(d) At its sole discretion, Buyer or Project Participants may re-sell or use for another purpose all or a portion of the Facility Energy, Replacement Energy, Capacity Rights, and associated Green Attributes, provided that no such re-sale or use shall relieve Buyer of any obligations hereunder. Buyer shall have exclusive rights to offer, bid, or otherwise submit the Facility Energy, Replacement Energy, Capacity Rights, and associated Green Attributes for resale in the market, and retain and receive any and all related revenues. Buyer has no obligation to purchase from Seller any Facility Energy, Replacement Energy, and associated Green Attributes for which the Facility Energy is not or cannot be delivered to the Points of Delivery as a result of an outage of a Facility, a Force Majeure, curtailments required under a Facility’s interconnection agreement, or curtailments required by Buyer due to a System Emergency not resulting from the fault or negligence of Buyer.

Section 6.2 Seller’s Failure. Except as provided in Article IX, and except for Energy that is RPS Compliant that is provided by the Transmission Provider pursuant to its tariff in connection with the Transmission Services, in no event shall Seller have the right to procure energy from sources other than the Project for sale and delivery pursuant to this Agreement. Seller shall not sell, deliver or convey any Facility Energy, Capacity Rights, and associated Green Attributes from any Facility to any third-party except as set forth in Section 6.4. If Seller sells any part of any Facility Energy, Capacity Rights, and associated Green Attributes to a third party in violation of Section 6.4 (including in connection with a claimed Force Majeure that does not satisfy the requirements of a Force Majeure in accordance with Section 14.3), Seller shall pay Buyer, within thirty (30) days of such sale all proceeds that Seller receives from such sale.

Section 6.3 Buyer’s Failure. Unless excused by Force Majeure or Seller’s failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement, if Buyer fails to receive at the Points of Delivery all or any part of any Facility Energy required to be received by Buyer under this Article VI, Article VIII, or Article IX, Buyer shall pay Seller, within thirty (30) days of Seller’s written request therefor, an amount for each MWh of such deficiency equal to the positive difference, if any, obtained by subtracting the Sales Price from the price per MWh that would have been payable by Buyer for the Energy and Green Attributes not received by Buyer. Seller shall provide Buyer prompt written notice of the Sales Price together with back-up documentation.

Section 6.4 Sales to Third Parties. Seller may sell to Persons other than Buyer (i) any Facility Energy and associated Green Attributes in excess of Maximum Generation not purchased by Buyer in accordance with Section 6.1, and (ii) any Facility Energy, Capacity Rights, and associated Green Attributes that Seller is unable to deliver to Buyer due to Force Majeure declared APPROVAL DRAFT Item 4
Attachment 1
CC Power/Ormat Power Purchase Agreement
by Buyer or Seller that either prevents Seller from delivering to Buyer the Facility Energy, Capacity Rights, and associated Green Attributes, or that prevents Buyer from receiving the Facility Energy, Capacity Rights, and associated Green Attributes. Except as provided above in this Section 6.4, Seller shall not sell or otherwise transfer any Facility Energy, Capacity Rights, or associated Green Attributes to any Person other than Buyer during the Delivery Term, except for any Facility Energy (excluding any associated RECs or Capacity Rights) that is Imbalance Energy transferred or sold pursuant to the terms of a Transmission Provider’s tariff.

Section 6.5 Nature of Remedies. The damages that Buyer would incur as a result of Seller’s failure as described in Section 6.2 or that Seller would incur as a result of Buyer’s failure as described in Section 6.3 would be difficult or impossible to predict with certainty, and it is impractical and difficult to assess actual damages in those circumstances, but the liquidated damages set forth in Section 6.2 and Section 6.3 are fair and reasonable calculations of such damages. The remedy set forth in Section 6.2 is in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other right or remedy of Buyer under this Agreement for failure of Seller to sell and deliver Energy and Green Attributes as and when required by this Agreement. The remedy set forth in Section 6.3 is in addition to any other right or remedy of Seller for any failure by Buyer to receive Energy as and when required by this Agreement.

Seller shall reduce deliveries of Energy for (a) curtailments required under a Facility’s interconnection agreement or (b) curtailments required by Buyer due to a System Emergency not resulting from the fault or negligence of Buyer, and Seller may reduce deliveries of Energy in the event of a Market Curtailment Period; provided that, for any curtailed Energy resulting from a Market Curtailment Period, Buyer will pay Seller for such curtailed Energy as set forth in Section 3 of Appendix A. During the Delivery Term, the Parties shall estimate the amount of curtailed Energy for each such curtailment event by multiplying (i) the arithmetic average of the applicable Facility’s metered output rate, in MW, immediately before and after such curtailment event, by (ii) the duration of such curtailment event. The Parties shall use the curtailed Energy estimate for the purpose of determining Seller’s compliance towards Guaranteed Generation, and, solely with respect to curtailed Energy resulting from a Market Curtailment Period, for purposes of calculating any payments due from Buyer to Seller pursuant to Section 3 of Appendix A. For the avoidance of doubt, Buyer shall be obligated to take delivery of and pay for all Delivered Energy, except that Buyer shall not be obligated to take delivery of and pay for Energy to the extent that such Energy exceeds the Maximum Generation and Buyer has not elected to purchase such Energy as provided in Section 6.1.

ARTICLE VIII
GREEN ATTRIBUTES; RPS COMPLIANCE
Section 8.1 Transfer of Green Attributes. For and in consideration of Buyer entering into this Agreement, and in addition to the agreement by Buyer and Seller to purchase and sell Facility Energy on the terms and conditions set forth herein, subject to Section 6.4, Seller shall transfer to Project Participants, and Project Participants shall receive from Seller, all right, title, and interest in and to all Green Attributes, whether now existing or acquired by Seller or that hereafter come into existence or are acquired by Seller during the Delivery Term, for all Facility Energy and Replacement Energy. Seller agrees to transfer and make such Green Attributes available to Project Participants immediately to the fullest extent allowed by applicable law upon Seller’s production or acquisition of the Green Attributes. Seller shall not assign, transfer, convey, encumber, sell or otherwise dispose of all or any portion of such Green Attributes to any Person other than Project Participants or attempt to do any of the foregoing with respect to any of the Green Attributes. The consideration for the transfer of Green Attributes is contained within the relevant prices for Delivered Energy under Articles VI and IX and Appendix A.

Section 8.2 Reporting of Ownership of Green Attributes. During the Delivery Term, Seller shall not report to any Person that the Green Attributes granted hereunder to Project Participants belong to any Person other than Buyer, and Buyer may report under any program that such Green Attributes purchased hereunder belong to it.

Section 8.3 Green Attributes. Upon Buyer’s request, Seller shall take all reasonable actions and execute all documents or instruments as are reasonable and necessary under applicable law, bilateral arrangements or other voluntary Green Attribute programs of any kind, as applicable, to maximize the attribution, accrual, realization, generation, production, recognition and validation of Green Attributes throughout the Delivery Term. Upon request of Buyer, Seller shall submit, a Green-e® Energy Tracking Attestation Form (“Attestation”) for Delivered Energy to the Center for Resource Solutions (“CRS”) at https://www.tfaforms.com/4652008 or its successor. The Attestation shall be submitted in accordance with the requirements of CRS and shall be submitted APPROVAL DRAFT Item 4
Attachment 1
CC Power/Ormat Power Purchase Agreement
within thirty (30) days of Buyer’s request or the last day of the month in which the applicable Delivered Energy was generated, whichever is later.

Section 8.4 Use of Accounting System to Transfer Green Attributes. (a) In furtherance and not in limitation of Section 8.3, Seller shall use WREGIS or any successor system to evidence the transfer of any Green Attributes considered RECs under applicable law or any voluntary program (“WREGIS Certificates”) associated with Facility Energy or Replacement Energy in accordance with WREGIS reporting protocols. Prior to the Commercial Operation Date for a Facility, Seller shall establish an account with WREGIS and commence registration of such Facility with WREGIS. After each Facility is registered with WREGIS, at Buyer’s option, Seller shall transfer WREGIS Certificates using the Forward Certificate Transfer method, as described in WREGIS Operating Rules, from Seller’s WREGIS account to up to ten (10) Project Participant WREGIS accounts, as designated by Buyer; provided, however, that Buyer shall have identified such accounts by written notice to Seller delivered no later than ten (10) days prior to the Commercial Operation Date for such Facility. (b) Seller shall be responsible for the WREGIS expenses associated with registering each Facility, maintaining its account, WREGIS Certificate issuance fees, and transferring WREGIS Certificates to Project Participants, and Project Participants shall be responsible for the WREGIS expenses associated with maintaining their accounts and any subsequent transferring or retiring of WREGIS Certificates. (c) Forward Certificate Transfers shall occur monthly based on the certificate creation timeline established by the WREGIS Operating Rules. Since WREGIS Certificates will only be created for whole MWh amounts of Delivered Energy or Replacement Energy, any fractional MWh amounts (i.e., kWh) will be carried forward until sufficient generation is accumulated for the creation of a WREGIS Certificate. Seller shall, at its sole expense, ensure that the WREGIS Certificates for a given calendar month correspond with the Delivered Energy and Replacement Energy for such calendar month, as evidenced by the Facility’s or Replacement Unit’s metered data, as applicable, and, unless otherwise agreed by Buyer, matching E-Tags.

WREGIS Certificates must be matched with E-Tags, unless otherwise agreed by Buyer. Seller shall ensure that no WREGIS Certificates are transferred to a Project Participant’s WREGIS Account unless they are the result of Delivered Energy or Replacement Energy and matched with E-Tags. WREGIS Certificates without matching E-Tags will be rejected. (d) A “WREGIS Certificate Deficit” means any deficit or shortfall in WREGIS Certificates delivered to Buyer for a calendar month as compared to the Delivered Energy and Replacement Energy for the same calendar month caused by an error or omission of Seller. If any WREGIS Certificate Deficit is caused, or the result of any action or inaction by Seller, then the aggregate amount of Delivered Energy and Replacement Energy in the month of a WREGIS Certificate Deficit shall be reduced by the amount of the WREGIS Certificate Deficit for purposes of calculating Buyer’s payment to Seller under Article XI and Shortfall Energy for the applicable Contract Year; provided, however, that such adjustment shall not apply to the extent that Seller resolves the WREGIS Certificate Deficit within ninety (90) days after the month of such WREGIS Certificate Deficit. Without limiting Seller’s obligations under this Section 8.4, if a WREGIS Certificate Deficit is caused solely by an error or omission of WREGIS, the Parties shall cooperate APPROVAL DRAFT Item 4
Attachment 1
CC Power/Ormat Power Purchase Agreement
in good faith to cause WREGIS to correct its error or omission. Seller shall be responsible for, at its expense, validating and disputing data with WREGIS prior to WREGIS Certificate creation each month. Buyer shall take all necessary actions to facilitate the transfer of Green Attributes as provided above, including accepting any transfer requests made by Seller through WREGIS in accordance with the foregoing. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 8.4, in the event that WREGIS is not in operation, Seller shall document the production and transfer of RECs under this Agreement by delivering to Buyer an attestation for the RECs produced by each Facility, or Replacement Energy, measured in whole MWh, or by such other method as Buyer shall designate, in accordance with the form set forth in Appendix P and the Parties shall cooperate to complete the transfer of WREGIS Certificates for the benefit of Buyer or Buyer’s designees as soon as reasonably possible. Buyer shall take all necessary actions to facilitate the transfer of Green Attributes as provided above, including accepting any transfer requests made by Seller through WREGIS in accordance with the foregoing.

Section 8.5 Further Assurances. At Buyer’s request, the Parties shall execute all such documents and instruments and take such other action in order to effect the transfer of the Green Attributes specified in this Agreement to Buyer’s designees and to maximize the attribution, accrual, realization, generation, production, recognition and validation of Green Attributes throughout the Delivery Term as Buyer may reasonably request. If WREGIS changes the WREGIS Operating Rules after the Effective Date or applies the WREGIS Operating Rules in a manner inconsistent with this Section 8.5 after the Effective Date, the Parties promptly shall modify Section 8.4 as reasonably required to cause and enable Seller to transfer to Buyer’s designees a quantity of WREGIS Certificates for each given calendar month that corresponds to the Delivered Energy and Replacement Energy delivered in the same calendar month; provided, however, that Seller’s obligations under Section 8.4 shall be subject to the Compliance Expenditure Cap, in accordance with Section 8.6(c).

Section 8.6 RPS Compliance.
(a) Seller, and, if applicable, its successors, represents and warrants that throughout the Delivery Term of this Agreement that: (i) the Project qualifies and is certified by the CEC as an Eligible Renewable Energy Resource (“ERR”) as such term is defined in Public Utilities Code Section 399.12 or Section 399.16; and (ii) the Project’s output delivered to Buyer qualifies under the requirements of the California Renewables Portfolio Standard. To the extent a change in law occurs after execution of this Agreement that causes this representation and warranty to be materially false or misleading, it shall not be an Event of Default if Seller has used commercially reasonable efforts to comply with such change in law. [STC 6]. (b) The term “commercially reasonable efforts” as used in Section 8.6(a) and in Section 8.6(e) means Seller’s compliance with Section 8.6(c) and (d), below. The term “Project” as used in Section 8.6(a) means each Facility included in the Project. (c) If (i) a Change in Law occurring after the Effective Date has increased Seller’s known or reasonably expected costs (A) to cause any Facility, its Facility Energy or the associated Green Attributes to be RPS Compliant or to obtain, maintain, convey or effectuate Buyer’s use of any Green Attributes, or (B) to cause any Facility to be or to remain a Firm Clean Resource, or (ii) a change in WREGIS Operating Rules after the Effective Date increases Seller’s APPROVAL DRAFT Item 4

costs to comply with its obligations under Section 8.4 (the obligations set forth in the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii) collectively, “Compliance Obligations”), then the Parties agree that the maximum aggregate amount of out-of-pocket costs and expenses (“Compliance Costs”) that Seller shall be required to bear during the Delivery Term with respect to each affected Facility to comply with all of such Compliance Obligations shall be capped at of the Facility Net Capacity of the applicable affected Facility (“Compliance Expenditure Cap”). Seller’s internal administrative costs associated with obtaining, maintaining, conveying or effectuating Buyer’s use of (as applicable) any Product are excluded from the Compliance Expenditure Cap.
(d) Any actions required for Seller to comply with its obligations set forth in Section 8.6(c) above, the Compliance Costs of which will be included in the Compliance Expenditure Cap, shall be referred to collectively as the “Compliance Actions.” If Seller reasonably anticipates the need to incur Compliance Costs in excess of the Compliance Expenditure Cap in order to take any Compliance Action, then Seller shall provide written notice to Buyer of such anticipated Compliance Costs. Buyer will have sixty (60) days to evaluate such notice (during which time period Seller is not obligated to take any Compliance Actions described in the notice) and shall, within such time, either (i) agree to reimburse Seller for all or some portion of the Compliance Costs that exceed the Compliance Expenditure Cap, as applicable (such Buyer-agreed upon costs, the “Accepted Compliance Costs”), or (ii) waive Seller’s obligation to take such Compliance Actions, or any part thereof for which Buyer has not agreed to reimburse Seller.

If Buyer does not respond to a notice given by Seller under this Section 8.6(d) within sixty (60) days after Buyer’s receipt of same, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived its rights to require Seller to take the Compliance Actions that are the subject of the notice, and Seller shall have no further obligation to take, and no liability for any failure to take, the Compliance Actions that are the subject of the notice for the remainder of the Term. If Buyer agrees to reimburse Seller for the Accepted Compliance Costs, then Seller shall take such Compliance Actions covered by the Accepted Compliance Costs as agreed upon by the Parties and Buyer shall reimburse Seller for Seller’s actual costs to effect the Compliance Actions, not to exceed the Accepted Compliance Costs, within sixty (60) days from the time that Buyer receives an invoice and documentation of such costs from Seller.
(e) Seller and, if applicable, its successors, represents and warrants that throughout the Delivery Term of this Agreement the Renewable Energy Credits transferred to Buyer conform to the definition and attributes required for compliance with the California Renewables Portfolio Standard, as set forth in California Public Utilities Commission Decision 08-08-028, and as may be modified by subsequent decision of the California Public Utilities Commission or by subsequent legislation. To the extent a change in law occurs after execution of this Agreement that causes this representation and warranty to be materially false or misleading, it shall not be an Event of Default if Seller has used commercially reasonable efforts to comply with such change in law. [STC REC-1].
(f) Seller warrants that all necessary steps to allow the Renewable Energy Credits transferred to Buyer to be tracked in the Western Renewable Energy Generation Information System will be taken prior to the first delivery under the contract. [STC REC-2].

(g) The phrase “such Facility qualifies and is certified by the CEC as an Eligible Renewable Energy Resource” as used in Section 8.6(a) means “such Facility qualifies and is CEC Pre-certified or CEC Certified as an Eligible Renewable Energy Resource.” Section 8.7 Solar Generating Capacity Serving Parasitic Load. Seller has the right, but not the obligation, to install and operate solar generating capacity behind a Facility’s Electric Metering Devices at any Site for purposes of providing some or all of such Facility’s Parasitic Load, in which case the geothermal Energy generated by such Facility that would have otherwise served the Parasitic Load shall for purposes of this Agreement constitute Facility Energy from such Facility and shall be sold to Buyer in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; provided, that Seller shall ensure that such solar generation (i) is only used to serve Parasitic Load associated with the applicable Facility, and (ii) is not delivered to Buyer for sale hereunder. Buyer acknowledges that using on-site solar generation to supply the applicable Facility’s Parasitic Load will result in an increase in Delivered Energy and associated Green Attributes delivered by Seller hereunder by reducing station use, and Buyer agrees that such increase in Delivered Energy and associated Green Attributes will be sold to Buyer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

ARTICLE IX

MAKEUP OF SHORTFALL ENERGY
Section 9.1 Makeup of Shortfall. During each Contract Year, all Delivered Energy during such Contract Year shall first be applied to the determination of whether Seller has delivered the Guaranteed Generation. Except to the extent caused by a Force Majeure (but subject to the provisions of Section 14.6(a) providing that the obligations of Seller with respect to satisfaction of Guaranteed Generation under this Article IX not satisfied due to Force Majeure are not excused, but such required delivery shall be extended for the duration of the Force Majeure), or except for curtailment under Section 7.4 or Buyer’s failure to accept Facility Energy in accordance with this Agreement, if Seller fails during any Contract Year to deliver Delivered Energy in an amount equal to the Guaranteed Generation, then Seller shall make-up that shortfall of Delivered Energy (such shortfall between the Guaranteed Energy and the Delivered Energy, “Shortfall Energy”) in the same Contract Year in accordance with this Article IX.

Section 9.2 Replacement Energy. Seller may reduce the amount of Shortfall Energy by providing Replacement Energy in the same Contract Year. The Replacement Energy shall be delivered to Buyer at the Points of Delivery on a delivery schedule reasonably approved by Buyer and consistent with the Project’s historic delivery profile. As employed in this Agreement, “Replacement Energy” means Energy and associated Green Attributes that is produced by a Replacement Unit (a) for which Seller has obtained rights to sell prior to the time that the Energy and associated Green Attributes have been generated, (b) that Seller has not sold or transferred to any other person or entity, (c) that is free and clear of all encumbrances, (d) that includes Green Attributes that have the same value and the same vintage with respect to the timeframe for retirement of such Green Attributes as the Green Attributes that would have been generated by the Project during the period for which the Replacement Energy is being provided; and (e) that is transferred to Buyer in real time.

Section 9.3 Shortfall Liquidated Damages. To the extent Seller is unable to procure sufficient Replacement Energy to make up any remaining Shortfall Energy within the same APPROVAL DRAFT Item 4
Attachment 1
CC Power/Ormat Power Purchase Agreement
Contract Year, Seller shall pay Buyer, as liquidated damages, an amount for each MWh of remaining Shortfall Energy equal to the positive difference, if any, obtained by subtracting the amount that Buyer would have paid had Project Energy equal to the amount of Shortfall Energy been delivered to the Points of Delivery from the Replacement Price (“Shortfall Liquidated Damages”). The Shortfall Liquidated Damages payable under this Section 9.3 shall be payable in lieu of actual damages, shall be guaranteed as to payment by the Delivery Term Security, and, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, other than Buyer’s remedies for a Default by Seller under Section 13.1(f), Shortfall Liquidated Damages shall be Buyer’s sole remedy, and Seller’s sole liability, for Seller’s failure to deliver Facility Energy and the associated Green Attributes and Replacement Energy and associated Green Attributes as provided under Sections

9.1 and 9.2, above. The Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the damages that Buyer would incur due to shortfalls in Delivered Energy would be difficult or impossible to predict with certainty, and (ii) it is impractical and difficult to assess actual damages in those circumstances and, therefore, Shortfall Liquidated Damages are a fair and reasonable calculation of such damages.

to submit, Supply Plans to identify and confirm the Resource Adequacy Benefits provided to Project Participants for each Showing Month from each Facility. (e) Resource Adequacy Benefits are delivered and received when the CIRA Tool shows that the Supply Plans for each Project Participant for each Facility have been accepted by the CAISO. If CAISO rejects either the Supply Plans or Project Participants’ Resource Adequacy Plans with respect to any part of the Resource Adequacy Benefits in any Showing Month, the Parties will confer, make such corrections as are necessary for acceptance, and resubmit the corrected Supply Plans or Resource Adequacy Plans for validation before the applicable Notification Deadline for the relevant Showing Month.
(f) If Seller anticipates that it will have an RA Shortfall Month, Seller may provide Replacement RA in the amount of (i) the Guaranteed Net Qualifying Capacity with respect to such Showing Month, minus (ii) the expected Net Qualifying Capacity that is able to be included in the Supply Plans for the Project Participants for such Showing Month plus any Deemed Delivered RA; provided, that any Replacement RA is communicated in the form of Appendix Q by Seller to Buyer no later than the Notification Deadline. (g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Seller shall be permitted to reduce deliveries of Capacity Attributes and Resource Adequacy Benefits during any Force Majeure Event that results in Seller’s inability, despite the use of commercially reasonable efforts, to deliver Facility Energy to the Points of Delivery.

Section 10.2 Representation Regarding Ownership of Capacity Rights. Subject to Section 6.4, Seller shall not assign, transfer, convey, encumber, sell or otherwise dispose of any of the Capacity Rights to any Person other than the Project Participants or attempt to do any of the foregoing with respect to any of the Capacity Rights. Seller shall not report to any Person that any of the Capacity Rights belong to any Person other than Buyer (or at Buyer’s designation, the Project Participants).

Section 10.3 Resource Adequacy Failure.
(a) For each RA Shortfall Month, Seller shall pay to Buyer as liquidated damages the RA Deficiency Amount, as set forth in Section 10.3(b), and/or provide Replacement RA, as set forth in Section 10.1(f), in each case, as the sole remedy for Capacity Attributes that Seller fails to convey to the Project Participants from each Facility. (b) For each RA Shortfall Month, Seller shall pay to Buyer an amount (the “RA Deficiency Amount”) equal to the product of (i) the difference, expressed in kW, of (A) the then applicable Guaranteed Net Qualifying Capacity, minus (B) the Net Qualifying Capacity included in the Supply Plans for the Project Participants (or any subsequent purchasers to whom Project Participants have resold Capacity Attributes), plus any Replacement RA that was able to be included in the Supply Plans for such Showing Month for the Project Participants (or any subsequent purchasers to whom Project Participants have resold Capacity Attributes) and any Deemed Delivered RA, multiplied by (ii) the lower of (A) thirteen dollars and fifty cents ($13.50) per kW-month, or (B) the sum of the CPM Soft Offer Cap and the RA Penalties paid or required APPROVAL DRAFT Item 4

Section 10.4 CPUC Mid-Term Reliability Requirements.
(a) Seller acknowledges that Buyer intends for this product to comply with mandatory procurement obligations for incremental capacity pursuant to CPUC D.21-06-035.

Seller represents and warrants to Buyer that commencing on the Effective Date and continuing throughout the Agreement Term:
(i) The Agreement includes the exclusive right to claim the Guaranteed Net Qualifying Capacity of the Facility as an incremental resource for purposes of CPUC D.21-06-035;
(ii) Seller has not and will not sell, assign, or transfer the right to claim any Facility as an incremental resource for purposes of CPUC D.21-06-035 to any other person or entity; and
(iii) Seller will reasonably cooperate with Buyer to ensure the Agreement will meet the procurement mandates set forth in CPUC D.21-06-035. (b) In furtherance of any compliance and reporting obligations related to the foregoing, and without limiting Seller’s obligations under any other provision of this Agreement, Seller agrees to provide documentation reasonably requested by Buyer in connection with such compliance obligations, including but not limited to the following:
(i) Evidence of interconnection, site control, notice to proceed with construction, and other evidence of construction status and progress towards Commercial Operation;
(ii) Engineering assessments demonstrating that each Facility satisfies the Firm Clean Resource requirements; and
(iii) Any other engineering assessments, contractual support, or relevant information required or requested by the CPUC pursuant to CPUC D.21-06-035 and any other applicable requirements of CPUC D.21-06-035 as such decision has been interpreted by the CPUC in public guidance documents or other public communications.

The Party disputing a payment shall promptly notify the other Party of the basis for the dispute, setting forth the details of such dispute in reasonable specificity. Disputes shall be discussed by the Authorized Representatives, who shall use reasonable efforts to amicably and promptly resolve the disputes, and any failure to agree shall be subject to resolution in accordance with Section 14.3. Upon resolution of any dispute, if all or part of the disputed amount is later determined to have been due, then the Party owing such payment or refund shall pay within ten (10) days after receipt of notice of such determination the amount determined to be due plus interest thereon at the Interest Rate from the due date until the date of payment. For purposes of this Section 11.3, “Interest Rate” shall mean the lesser of (i) two hundred (200) basis points above the per annum prime rate reported daily in The Wall Street Journal, or (ii) the maximum rate permitted by applicable Requirements of Law. Buyer may dispute an invoice at any time within three hundred sixty-five (365) days after Buyer’s receipt of the invoice, provided that Buyer provides Seller with a written notification of such dispute, setting forth the details of such dispute in reasonable specificity. If, within three hundred sixty-five (365) days of Buyer’s receipt of an invoice, Buyer does not notify Seller in writing of a dispute related to that invoice, Buyer shall be deemed to have waived any dispute related to that invoice and the invoice shall be considered correct and complete.

Section 11.4 Right of Setoff. In addition to any right now or hereafter granted under applicable law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, either Party shall have the right at any time or from time to time without notice to the other Party or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off against any amount due from such Party to the other under this Agreement any amount due from the other Party to it under this Agreement, including any amounts due because of breach of this Agreement or any other obligation.

Section 11.5 Records and Audits. Seller and its Affiliates shall maintain, and shall cause Seller’s and its Affiliates’ subcontractors and suppliers, as applicable, to maintain, all records pertaining to the management of this Agreement, related subcontracts, and performance of services pursuant to this Agreement (including all billings, costs, metering, and Green Attributes), in their original form, including reports, documents, deliverables, employee time sheets, accounting procedures and practices, records of financial transactions, and other evidence, regardless of form (for example, machine readable media such as disk or tape, etc.) or type (for example, databases, applications software, database management software, or utilities), sufficient to properly reflect all services performed pursuant to this Agreement. If Seller and its Affiliates or Seller’s and its Affiliates’ subcontractors or suppliers are required to submit cost or pricing data in connection with this Agreement, Seller and its Affiliates shall maintain all records and documents necessary to permit adequate evaluation of the cost or pricing data submitted, along with the computations and projections used. Buyer and the Authorized Auditors may discuss such records with Seller’s officers and independent public accountants (and by this provision Seller authorizes said accountants to discuss such billings and costs), all at such times and as often as may be reasonably requested. All such records shall be retained and shall be subject to examination and audit by the Authorized Auditors, for a period of not less than four (4) years following final payment made by Buyer hereunder or the expiration or termination date of this Agreement, whichever is later.

Seller, its Affiliates, and Seller’s subcontractors and suppliers, as applicable to the services provided under this Agreement, shall be subject at any time with fourteen (14) days prior written notice to audits or examinations by Authorized Auditors, relating to all billings and to verify compliance with all Agreement requirements relative to practices, methods, procedures, performance, compensation, and documentation. Examinations and audits shall be performed using generally accepted auditing practices and principles. To the extent that the Authorized Auditor’s examination or audit reveals inaccurate, incomplete or non-current records, or records are unavailable, the records shall be considered defective. Consistent with standard auditing procedures, Seller shall be provided fifteen (15) days to review the Authorized Auditor’s examination results or audit and respond to Buyer’s prior to the examination’s or audit’s finalization and public release. If the Authorized Auditor’s examination or audit indicates Seller has been overpaid under a previous payment application, the identified overpayment amount shall be paid by Seller to Buyer within fifteen (15) days of notice to Seller of the identified overpayment.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the audit reveals that Buyer’s overpayment to Seller is more than the greater of $100,000 or five percent (5.0%) of the billings reviewed, Seller shall pay all expenses and costs incurred by the Authorized Auditors arising out of or related to the examination or audit.

Such examination or audit expenses and costs shall be paid by Seller to Buyer within fifteen (15) days of notice to the Seller of such costs and expenses. Any information provided by Seller to the Authorized Auditor shall be held by such Authorized Auditor in strict confidence and Seller may require such Authorized Auditor to enter into a reasonable confidentiality agreement prior to the disclosure of information hereunder; provided that the Authorized Auditors shall not be prevented from disclosure of such information to Buyer to the extent such disclosure to Buyer is required to enable Buyer to carry out its rights and responsibilities under this Agreement and Buyer shall treat such information as Confidential Information to the extent provided under Section 14.21.

Section 11.6 Electric Metering Devices.
(a) Delivered Energy shall be measured using Electric Metering Devices installed, owned and maintained by the Seller and its Affiliates. If the Electric Metering Devices are not installed at a Point of Delivery, meters or meter readings shall be adjusted to reflect losses from the Electric Metering Devices to such Point of Delivery. To the extent consistent with the requirements of the Transmission Provider, all Electric Metering Devices used to provide data for the computation of payments shall be sealed and Seller or its designee shall only break the seal when such Electric Metering Devices are to be inspected and tested or adjusted in accordance with this Section 11.6. Seller or its designee shall specify the number, type, and location of such Electric Metering Devices.
(b) Seller, its Affiliates or its designee, at no expense to Buyer, shall inspect and test all Electric Metering Devices upon installation and at least annually thereafter. Seller or its Affiliates shall provide Buyer annual certified test reports for each Facility Electric Metering Device thereafter throughout the duration of the Delivery Term. Seller shall provide Buyer with reasonable advance notice of, and permit a representative of Buyer to witness and verify, such inspections and tests to the extent consistent with the requirements of the Transmission Provider.

Upon request by Buyer, Seller or its designee shall perform additional inspections or tests of any Electric Metering Device and shall allow a qualified representative of Buyer the right to inspect or witness the testing of any Electric Metering Device. The actual expense of any such requested additional inspection or testing shall be borne by Buyer, unless the results of such additional inspection or testing show an inaccuracy greater than one percent (1%), in which case Seller shall bear such costs. Seller shall provide copies of any inspection or testing reports to Buyer.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall have the right and Buyer shall permit Seller to withhold proprietary information unless such information is reasonably needed by Buyer to evaluate and verify such inspections and tests. In addition, Buyer shall hold any information obtained during or in connection with such inspections and tests in confidence. (c) If an Electric Metering Device fails to register, or if the measurement made by an Electric Metering Device is found upon testing to be inaccurate by more than one percent (1.0%), an adjustment shall be made correcting all measurements by the inaccurate or defective Electric Metering Device for both the amount of the inaccuracy and the period of the inaccuracy.

The adjustment period shall be determined by reference to Seller’s check-meters, if any, or as far as can be reasonably ascertained by Seller from the best available data, subject to review and approval by Buyer. If the period of the inaccuracy cannot be ascertained reasonably, any such adjustment shall be for a period equal to one-third of the time elapsed since the preceding test of the Electric Metering Devices. To the extent that the adjustment period covers a period of deliveries for which payment has already been made by Buyer, Buyer shall use the corrected measurements as determined in accordance with this Section 11.6 to recompute the amount due for the period of the inaccuracy and shall subtract the previous payments by Buyer for this period from such recomputed amount. If the difference is a positive number, the difference shall be paid by Buyer to Seller; if the difference is a negative number, that difference shall be paid by Seller to Buyer, or at the discretion of Buyer, may take the form of an offset to payments due to Seller from Buyer. Payment of such difference by the owing Party shall be made not later than thirty (30) days after the owing Party receives notice of the amount due, unless Buyer elects payment via an offset. (d) Seller shall work with Buyer to establish direct access by the Buyer to interval meter data for purposes of Buyer reconciliation of invoices.

Section 11.7 Taxes. Seller shall be responsible for and shall pay before the due dates therefor, any and all federal, state and local Taxes incurred by it as a result of entering into this Agreement and all Taxes imposed or assessed with respect to each Facility, each Site, or any other assets of Seller, the sale of Facility Energy and Green Attributes and all Taxes related to Seller’s income. Buyer shall be responsible for and shall pay before the due dates therefor, any and all federal, state and local Taxes incurred by it as a result of entering into this Agreement and all Taxes imposed or assessed with respect to any assets of Buyer or the purchase of Facility Energy and Green Attributes under this Agreement.

Section 13.2 Default Remedy.
(a) If Buyer is in Default for nonpayment, subject to any duty or obligation under this Agreement, Seller may continue to provide services pursuant to its obligations under this Agreement; provided that nothing in this Section 13.2(a) shall affect Seller’s rights and remedies set forth in this Section 13.2.

application of all amounts available under the Performance Security against any amounts then payable by Seller to Buyer under this Agreement and (ii) termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 13.3. No failure of Buyer to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, remedy or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise by Buyer of any right, remedy or power hereunder preclude any other or future exercise of any right, remedy or power.

Section 13.3 Termination for Default.
(a) If a Default occurs, the Party that is not the Defaulting Party (the “Non-Defaulting Party”) may, for so long as the Default is continuing and without limiting any other rights or remedies available to the Non-Defaulting Party under this Agreement, by notice (“Termination Notice”) to the Defaulting Party (i) establish a date (which shall be no earlier than the date of such notice and no later than twenty (20) days after the date of such notice) (“Early Termination Date”) on which this Agreement shall terminate, and (ii) withhold any payments due in respect of this Agreement; provided, upon the occurrence of any Default of the type described in Section 13.1(d) or Section 13.1(e), this Agreement shall automatically terminate, without notice or other action by either Party as if an Early Termination Date had been declared immediately prior to such event.
(b) If an Early Termination Date has been designated, the Non-Defaulting Party shall calculate in a commercially reasonable manner its Gains, Losses and Costs resulting from the termination of this Agreement and the resulting Termination Payment. The Gains, Losses and Costs relating to the Facility Energy, Capacity Rights and Green Attributes that would have been required to be delivered under this Agreement had it not been terminated shall be determined by comparing the amounts Buyer would have paid therefor under this Agreement to the equivalent quantities and relevant market prices either quoted by a bona fide third party offer or which are reasonably expected by Buyer to be available in the market under a replacement contract for this Agreement covering the same products and having a term equal to the Remaining Term at the date of the Termination Notice adjusted to account for differences in transmission, if any. The Non-Defaulting Party shall not be required to enter into any such replacement agreement in order to determine its Gains, Losses and Costs or the Termination Payment. To ascertain the market prices of a replacement contract, the Non-Defaulting Party may consider, among other valuations, quotations from dealers in energy contracts and bona fide third party offers. If the Non-Defaulting Party’s Costs and Losses exceed its Gains, then the Termination Paymentshall be an amount owing to the Non-Defaulting Party. If the Non-Defaulting Party’s Gains exceed its Costs and Losses, then the Termination Payment shall be zero dollars ($0). The Termination Payment shall not include consequential, incidental, punitive, exemplary, or indirect or business interruption damages.
(c) For purposes of the Non-Defaulting Party’s determination of its Gains, Losses and Costs and the Termination Payment, it shall be assumed, regardless of the facts, that Seller would have sold, and Buyer would have purchased, each day during the Remaining Term (i) Facility Energy in an amount equal the Assumed Daily Deliveries, and (ii) the Green Attributes associated therewith. The “Assumed Daily Deliveries” is an amount equal to the Guaranteed Generation for the then current Contract Year multiplied by 1.0556, divided by 365.

(d) The Non-Defaulting Party shall notify the Defaulting Party of the Termination Payment, which notice shall include a written statement explaining in reasonable detail the calculation of such amount. The Defaulting Party shall, within ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such notice, pay the Termination Payment to the Non-Defaulting Party, together with interest accrued at the Interest Rate from the Early Termination Date until paid. (e) If the Defaulting Party disagrees with the calculation of the Termination Payment and the Parties cannot otherwise resolve their differences, the calculation issue shall be submitted to informal non-binding dispute resolution as provided in Section 14.3(a). Following resolution of the dispute, the Defaulting Party shall pay the full amount of the Termination Payment (if any) determined by such resolution as and when required, but no later than thirty (30) days following the date of such resolution, together with all interest, at the Interest Rate, that accrued from the Early Termination Date until the date the Termination Payment is paid. (f) For purposes of this Agreement:
(i) “Gains” means, with respect to a Party, an amount equal to the present value of the economic benefit (exclusive of Costs), if any, resulting from the termination of its obligations under this Agreement, determined in a commercially reasonable manner;
(ii) “Losses” means, with respect to a Party, an amount equal to the present value of the economic loss (exclusive of Costs), if any, resulting from the termination of its obligations under this Agreement, determined in a commercially reasonable manner;
(iii) “Costs” means, with respect to a Party, brokerage fees, commissions and other similar transaction costs and expenses reasonably incurred in terminating any arrangement pursuant to which it has hedged its obligations or entering into new arrangements which replace this Agreement, excluding attorneys’ fees, if any, incurred in connection with enforcing its rights under this Agreement. Each Party shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate or eliminate its Costs.
(iv) In no event shall a Party’s Gains, Losses or Costs include any penalties or similar charges imposed by the Non-Defaulting Party; provided, however, that Buyer may include in a calculation of Losses, should Seller be the Defaulting Party, any RA Penalties resulting from Seller’s Default.
(g) At the time for payment of any amount due under this Section 13.3, each Party shall pay to the other Party all additional amounts, if any, payable by it under this Agreement (including any amounts withheld pursuant to Section 13.3(a)(ii) above).

Section 13.4 Pass Through of Buyer Liability. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if Buyer fails to make when due any payment required pursuant to this Agreement, and such failure is not remedied within thirty (30) calendar days after receipt of notice thereof, Seller may, without waiving any of its rights with respect to Buyer except as expressly provided herein, pursue remedies under any or all of the Buyer Liability Pass Through Agreements as provided therein. Seller hereby waives the right to recover directly from Buyer any Termination APPROVAL DRAFT Item 4

Payment owed by Buyer that is not paid by Buyer pursuant to Section 13.3(d), but the foregoing waiver does not apply to any other right or remedy of Seller under this Agreement, including the right to recover payments owed by Buyer pursuant to Section 11.2, other amounts payable or reimbursable under this Agreement or any other amounts incurred or accrued prior to termination of this Agreement, and the right to terminate the Agreement as the result of a Default by Buyer.

Section 13.5 No Recourse to Members of Buyer. Buyer is organized as a Joint Powers Authority in accordance with the Joint Exercise of Powers Act of the State of California (Government Code Section 6500, et seq.) pursuant to its Joint Powers Agreement and is a public entity separate from its constituent members. Except as set forth in Section 13.4 and any Buyer Liability Pass Through Agreements issued by one or more Project Participants pursuant to Section

5.12, Buyer shall solely be responsible for all debts, obligations and liabilities accruing and arising out of this Agreement, and Seller shall have no rights and shall not make any claims, take any actions or assert any remedies against any of Buyer’s constituent members, or the employees, directors, officers, consultants or advisors or Buyer or its constituent members, in connection with this Agreement.

Section 14.4 Further Assurances. Each Party agrees to execute and deliver all further instruments and documents and take all further action not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement that may be reasonably necessary to effectuate the purposes and intent of this Agreement.

Section 14.5 No Dedication of Facilities.

Section 14.6 Force Majeure.
(a) A Party shall not be considered to be in default in the performance of any of its obligations under this Agreement, other than an obligation to make payment, when and to the extent such Party’s performance is prevented by a Force Majeure that, despite the exercise of due diligence, such Party is unable to prevent or mitigate, provided the Party, as soon as practicable after becoming aware of the Force Majeure, declares the Force Majeure by giving a written notice (the “Force Majeure Notice”) to the other Party and upon request by the other Party furnishes the other Party with a detailed description of the full particulars of the Force Majeure reasonably promptly (and in any event within fourteen (14) days after the request therefor), which shall include information with respect to the nature, cause and date and time of commencement of such event, and the anticipated scope and duration of the delay. The Party providing the Force Majeure Notice shall be excused from fulfilling its obligations under this Agreement until such time as the Force Majeure has ceased to prevent performance or other remedial action is taken, at which time the Party shall promptly notify the other Party of the resumption of its obligations under this Agreement. If Seller is unable to deliver, or Buyer is unable to receive, Facility Energy due to a Force Majeure, Buyer shall have no obligation to pay Seller for the Energy not delivered or received by reason thereof. It is understood by the Parties that the foregoing provisions shall not APPROVAL DRAFT Item 4

CC Power/Ormat Power Purchase Agreement
excuse any obligations of Seller with respect to Guaranteed Generation, as provided for under Article IX, that is not achieved due to Force Majeure, provided that Seller’s requirement to provide the Guaranteed Generation shall be extended for the duration of the Force Majeure. In no event shall Buyer be obligated to compensate Seller or any other Person for any losses, expenses or liabilities that Seller or such other Person may sustain as a consequence of any Force Majeure. (b) The term “Force Majeure” means (i) curtailment or interruption of Transmission Service (subject to Section 14.6(c)), any act of God, labor disturbance, act of the public enemy, war, insurrection, riot, civil disturbances, sabotage, blockade, expropriation, confiscation, fire, unusual or extreme adverse weather-related events or natural disasters (such as lightning, landslide, earthquake, tornado, hurricane, storm or flood), condemnation, epidemic, pandemic (including the disease designated COVID-19 or the related virus designated SARS-CoV-2 or any mutation thereof), or any order, regulation or restriction imposed by WECC or NERC or by governmental, military or lawfully established civilian authorities, or (ii) any other event of circumstance, which, in each case of clauses (i) and (ii), (A) prevents one Party from performing any of its obligations under this Agreement, (B) is not within the reasonable control of, or the result of negligence, willful misconduct, breach of contract, intentional act or omission or wrongdoing on the part of the affected Party (or any subcontractor or Affiliate of that Party, or any Person under the Control of that Party or any of its subcontractors or Affiliates, or any Person for whose acts such subcontractor or Affiliate is responsible), and (C) which by the exercise of due diligence the affected Party is unable to overcome or avoid or cause to be avoided; provided, nothing in this clause (C) shall be construed so as to require either Party to accede or agree to any provision not satisfactory to it in order to settle and terminate a strike or labor dispute in which it may be involved. Any Party rendered unable to fulfill any of its obligations by reason of a Force Majeure shall exercise due diligence to remove such inability with reasonable dispatch within a reasonable time period and mitigate the effects of the Force Majeure. The relief from performance shall be of no greater scope and of no longer duration than is required by the Force Majeure.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a Force Majeure does not include any of the following (each an “Unexcused Cause”): (1) any Change in Law that shall cause the RPS to be no longer in force or effect or that, as a result of such Change in Law, Seller shall be unable to make a Facility RPS Compliant as provided in Section 8.6; (2) events arising from the failure by Seller to construct, operate or maintain a Facility in accordance with this Agreement; (3) any increase of any kind in any cost; (4) delays in or inability of a Party to obtain financing or other economic hardship of any kind; (5) Seller’s ability to sell any Energy at a price in excess of those provided in this Agreement; (6) Seller’s failure to secure or obtain interconnection of a Facility or Transmission Services to a Point of Delivery; (7) curtailment or other interruption of any Transmission Services except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 14.6(c); (8) failure of third parties to provide goods or services essential to a Party’s performance except to the extent caused by an event that otherwise constitutes Force Majeure hereunder; (9) Facility or equipment failure of any kind except to the extent caused by an event that otherwise constitutes Force Majeure hereunder; (10) any changes in the financial condition of the Buyer, any Seller Party, the Facility Lender or any subcontractor or supplier affecting the affected Party’s ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement; or (11) drought in any county in which the affected Facility is located except to the extent it is a drought that (i) begins after the Effective Date, and (ii) is materially more severe than the drought conditions that have existed during the ten (10) year period prior to the Commercial Operation Date of the Facility as determined by the National Integrated Drought Information System.

(c) Neither Party may raise a claim of Force Majeure based in whole or in part on curtailment or other interruption of Transmission Services for any Energy at any time unless (A) such Party has arranged for Firm Transmission to be provided for the Facility Energy in connection with such Transmission Service at the time, and (B) the curtailment or interruption is not due to the fault or negligence of the Party claiming Force Majeure; provided, that notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, the existence of the foregoing factors shall not be sufficient to conclusively or presumptively prove the existence of Force Majeure absent a showing of other facts and circumstances which in the aggregate with such factors establish that a Force Majeure as defined in Section 14.6(b) has occurred. For the avoidance of doubt, Buyer may not claim Force Majeure for any curtailment, interruption or other circumstance associated with Transmission Services downstream of a Point of Delivery, unless and to the extent that such curtailment, interruption or circumstance prevents Buyer or Buyer’s Transmission Provider from receiving Facility Energy at such Point of Delivery.
(d) During the Delivery Term, if one or more events of Force Majeure (i) shall cause the aggregate capacity net of Parasitic Load of the Facilities that have achieved Commercial Operation to be reduced to a capacity of less than fifty percent (50%) of the Project Net Capacity prior to the event of Force Majeure (adjusted to reflect the difference between ambient temperatures and annual average temperature) for a period of six (6) consecutive months, or (ii) shall prevent Buyer from accepting more than fifty percent (50%) of the Project Net Capacity prior to the event of Force Majeure (adjusted to reflect the difference between ambient temperatures and annual average temperature) at the Points of Delivery for any hour that a Facility is able to generate Facility Energy for a period of six (6) consecutive months (the period of six (6) consecutive months in either (i) or (ii), the “Force Majeure Trigger Period”), the non-claiming Party shall have the right, if the claiming Party is unable to overcome the condition in clause (i) or (ii) above, as applicable, within the Force Majeure Cure Period, to terminate this Agreement upon the last day of such Force Majeure Cure Period, so long as written notice of termination is received by the other Party prior to the end of the Force Majeure Cure Period. Such termination shall automatically trigger release and return of the Delivery Term Security in accordance with Section 5.9(d). (e) If one or more events of Force Majeure shall prevent or delay Seller from causing the Project Net Capacity to be equal to or greater than ninety percent (90%) of the Minimum Capacity by the Minimum Capacity Cure Date, then Buyer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon the Minimum Capacity Cure Date. Such termination shall automatically trigger release and return of the Project Development Security in accordance with Section 5.9(c).

Seller shall reimburse, or shall cause the Facility Lender to reimburse, Buyer for the reasonable incremental direct third-party expenses incurred by Buyer in the preparation, negotiation, execution or delivery of any documents requested by Seller or the Facility Lender, and provided by Buyer, pursuant to this Section 14.7(e).

Each of the Parties to this Agreement was represented by its respective legal counsel during the negotiation and execution of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent Buyer incurs third party legal costs in order to facilitate any collateral assignment or pledge of this Agreement under Section 14.7 or in taking such other action or review that is at the request of Seller, Seller shall bear Buyer’s reasonable and documented third party legal costs therefor.

Section 14.10 Voluntary Execution. Both Parties hereto acknowledge that they have read and fully understand the content and effect of this Agreement and that the provisions of this Agreement have been reviewed and approved by their respective counsel. The Parties to this Agreement further acknowledge that they have executed this Agreement voluntarily, subject only to the advice of their own counsel, and do not rely on any promise, inducement, representation or warranty that is not expressly stated herein.

Section 14.11 Entire Agreement. This Agreement (including all Appendices and Exhibits) contains the entire understanding concerning the subject matter herein and supersedes and replaces any prior negotiations, discussions or agreements between the Parties, or any of them, concerning that subject matter, whether written or oral, except as expressly provided for herein.

This is a fully integrated document. Each Party acknowledges that no other party, representative or agent, has made any promise, representation or warranty, express or implied, that is not expressly contained in this Agreement that induced the other Party to sign this document. This Agreement may be amended or modified only by an instrument in writing signed by each Party.

Section 14.12 Governing Law. This agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereunder shall be governed by and construed, enforced and performed in accordance with the laws of the state of California, without regard to principles of conflicts of Law.

Section 14.13 Venue. The Parties agree that any suit, action or other legal proceeding by or against any party (or its affiliates or designees) with respect to or arising out of this Agreement shall be brought in the federal courts of the United States or the courts of the State of California sitting in San Francisco County, California.

Section 14.15 Effect of Section Headings. Section headings appearing in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not be construed as interpretations of text.

Section 14.16 Waiver. The failure of either Party to this Agreement to enforce or insist upon compliance with or strict performance of any of the terms or conditions hereof, or to take advantage of any of its rights hereunder, shall not constitute a waiver or relinquishment of any such terms, conditions or rights, but the same shall be and remain at all times in full force and effect. Notwithstanding anything expressed or implied herein to the contrary, nothing contained herein shall preclude either Party from pursuing any available remedies for breaches not rising to the level of a Default, including recovery of damages caused by the breach of this Agreement and specific performance or any other remedy given under this Agreement or now or hereafter existing in law or equity or otherwise. Seller acknowledges that money damages may not be an adequate remedy for violations of this Agreement and that Buyer may, in its sole discretion, seek and obtain from a court of competent jurisdiction specific performance or injunctive or such other relief as such court may deem just and proper to enforce this Agreement or to prevent any violation hereof.

Seller hereby waives any objection to specific performance or injunctive relief. The rights granted herein are cumulative.

Section 14.17 Relationship of the Parties. This Agreement shall not be interpreted to create an association, joint venture or partnership between the Parties hereto or to impose any partnership obligation or liability upon either such Party.

PAYMENT SCHEDULE
Buyer shall compensate Seller for the Delivered Energy, Capacity Rights, and associated Green Attributes in accordance with this Appendix A.

1. Energy Delivered Prior to Commercial Operation. The purchase price for Delivered Energy that is comprised of Facility Energy from a Facility prior to the Commercial Operation Date for such Facility shall be the Contract Price per MWh; provided, in no event shall Buyer be obligated to purchase or receive Delivered Energy in excess of the Maximum Generation unless Buyer shall by notice given to Seller elect to purchase any such Energy in excess of Maximum Generation.

2. Energy Delivered Following Commercial Operation. The purchase price for Delivered Energy that is comprised of Facility Energy from a Facility after the Commercial Operation Date for such Facility or for Replacement Energy shall be the Contract Price per MWh; provided, in no event shall Buyer be obligated to purchase or receive Delivered Energy in excess of the Maximum Generation unless Buyer shall by notice given to Seller elect to purchase any such Energy in excess of Maximum Generation.

3. Payment for Curtailed Energy during Market Curtailment Period. Buyer shall pay Seller the Contract Price per MWh for Energy that is curtailed as a result of a Market Curtailment Period, with the quantity of such curtailed Energy determined pursuant to Section 7.4.

4. Calculation of Monthly Delivered Energy Payment. For each MWh of Delivered Energy in each Settlement Period, Buyer shall pay Seller the difference of: (i) the Contract Price per MWh; minus (ii) the Day-Ahead Market LMP applicable to the Settlement Point for such Settlement Period; provided, however, that (A) if the Day-Ahead Market LMP applicable to the Settlement Point for such Settlement Period is less than the Negative LMP Strike Price, then the Day-Ahead Market LMP applicable to the Settlement Point for such Settlement Period shall be deemed to be equal to the Negative LMP Strike Price, and (B) if the result of the difference of (i) minus (ii) above results in a negative value, then Seller shall pay Buyer the absolute value of such result (which payment may be applied as a credit to Buyer on Seller’s monthly invoice). Seller, through its Scheduling Coordinator, shall receive (and, except as otherwise provided in subpart (B) above, is entitled to retain) payment for Delivered Energy from CAISO for such delivery based on the applicable Energy price, as published by CAISO. For the avoidance of doubt, Buyer is purchasing a bundled product and Seller’s receipt of payment directly via CAISO settlements is for the Parties’ mutual convenience.

5. Negative LMP Strike Price. Buyer may change the Negative LMP Strike Price by providing written notice to Seller at least five (5) Business Days prior to the effective date of such change, which notice must identify the new Negative LMP Strike Price and the effective date for the new Negative LMP Strike Price; provided, however, that the APPROVAL DRAFT Item 4

Such insurance shall be maintained by Seller at Seller’s sole cost and expense.

Such insurance shall not limit or qualify the liabilities and obligations of Seller assumed under this Agreement. Buyer shall not by reason of its inclusion under these policies incur liability to the insurance carrier for payment of premium for these policies.

Any insurance carried by Buyer which may be applicable shall be deemed to be excess insurance and Seller’s insurance is primary for all purposes despite any conflicting provision in Seller’s policies to the contrary.

Said evidence of insurance shall contain a provision that the policy cannot be canceled or reduced in coverage or amount without first giving thirty (30) days prior notice thereof (ten (10) days for non-payment of premium) by registered mail to [INSERT BUYER CONTACT].

Should any portion of the required insurance be on a “Claims Made” policy, Seller shall, at the policy expiration date following completion of work, provide evidence that the “Claims Made” policy has been renewed or replaced with the same limits, terms and conditions of the expiring policy, or that an extended discovery period has been purchased on the expiring policy at least for the contract under which the work was performed.

Seller shall be responsible for all subcontractors’ compliance with the insurance requirements.
