ARCHIVED AND NO LONGER RELEVANTOctober 17, 2012: Invitation to Stakeholder Workshop
AEP Ohio has initiated a stakeholder process to establish a Competitive Bidding Process (“CBP”) for the procurement of slice-of-system energy-only products starting as early as May 2013.
AEP Ohio and NERA Economic Consulting (“NERA”) will hold the first workshop in Columbus, Ohio on Thursday, October 25, 2012 to present the key elements of the proposed CBP and to solicit input from stakeholders. If you wish to participate, please use the “RSVP for an Information Session” link available by clicking on “Contact Us” on the left menu bar of the CBP website www.aepohiocbp.com, or provide a simple response of "YES" by return email to AEP-CBP@nera.com (or you may also respond to OhioCBP@aep.com).
The workshop will begin with a presentation of the proposed elements of the CBP. Topics covered will include:
- product definition including key terms of the Master Agreement;
- creditworthiness standards and qualification process;
- auction process and timing; and
- data to be provided to potential suppliers.
The presentation will be followed by a question and answer session, as well as a comment period for stakeholder input. The workshop will be held at the Columbus Airport Marriot (address is provided below). Attendees are responsible for their own hotel reservations and meals (there is a restaurant on site).
