Summary of SCE’s Proposed RAM 3 PPA Changes/RAM Program Changes
Adds sections to the RAM 3 PPA granting SCE the right to terminate a contract with a project whose bid has been selected in the RAM if the project’s reimbursable network upgrade costs exceed a specific cap. As proposed, if the reimbursable network upgrade costs in an interconnection study or agreement for a project exceed the lesser of (1) $100,000 plus estimated network upgrade costs, or (2) 125% of the estimated network upgrade costs the contract would be terminated. SCE argues this provision is necessary to shield its customers from excessive network upgrade costs and cites this as common practice in other PPAs in which projects have achieved commercial operation.
