About the RFP

Twice a year we open an RFP seeking partners for current and future clean energy projects.

Enel X Advisory Services North America, Inc. (Enel X) will administer the RFP on our behalf. We are seeking proposals from all sources, including wind, solar, storage, nuclear and natural gas with carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) to support Voluntary Green Pricing (VGP) and future clean energy supply needs. We are also looking for traditional generation resources to bridge shorter term supply needs.
