Indexed REC RFP – REMINDER: Part 1 Proposals due Thursday, April 30 at 12 PM (noon) CPT
In order to submit a Bid for a Project in the Summer 2026 Indexed REC RFP, a Bidder must submit a Proposal, which consists of two (2) parts. The first part of the Proposal, the Part 1 Proposal, is the Bidder’s response to the qualification standards under the RFP Rules. Part 1 Proposals are submitted via the online Part 1 Form during the Part 1 Window. The Part 1 Window is open. Part 1 Proposals are due by 12 PM (noon) CPT on Thursday, April 30, 2026.
Important! In Section 1 to the Part 1 Proposal, the Bidder is required to name entities and individuals relevant to the Proposal. New for Summer 2026, there are additional and updated requirements in this section along with updated certifications related to maintaining the confidentiality of your Proposal. The confidentiality requirements begin as of the opening of the Part 1 Window. Additional information is provided on slides 44-49 of the Bidder Information Webcast and in FAQs 3-7.
If you have not done so already, please register for an account to access the online Part 1 Form here under the Contact Us page. Select the “Indexed Wind, Solar, Brownfield, and Hydropower” category. Please include your name, company name, parent company name, email address, phone number, and the number of projects for which you intend to submit a Proposal. A separate Proposal must be submitted for each Project. The Procurement Administrator will issue account activation and qualification form instructions to individuals that have registered. Only one account will be issued to a company.
