FAQ-184:
Will a bidder that has won tranches in a previous auction be required to execute a new Master SSO Supply Agreement should that bidder win tranches in a future auction?
Under the CBP approved by the Commission as part of AEP Ohio’s Amended ESP III, a bidder must execute a new Master SSO Supply Agreement each time a bidder wins tranches in an auction under that ESP (assuming that the Commission accepts the results of the auction). A bidder may not amend an existing Master SSO Supply Agreement to reflect a bidder’s new or additional obligations.

FAQ-158:
Suppliers are responsible for providing full requirements service to SSO customers of AEP Ohio, excluding PIPP customers, and to bear all costs that are associated with this responsibility. SSO Supply means unbundled Energy, Capacity and Ancillary Services, including, to the extent not expressly assumed by AEP Ohio pursuant to Section 3.2, all transmission and distribution losses and congestion and imbalance costs associated with the provision of such services, as measured and reported to PJM, and such other services or products that an SSO Supplier may be required to provide, by PJM or other Governmental Authority, in order to meet the requirements of SSO Service. Can AEP Ohio or the CBP Auction Manager provide additional details surrounding the actual product requirements of SSO, such as ancillary services, and the settlement of the product so that we can price the risk?
Suppliers, not AEP Ohio, are responsible for understanding the cost components of SSO Supply. How an SSO Supplier decides to review or assess the pricing of such service for purposes of submitting a bid in the auction is ultimately a responsibility of the SSO Supplier, not AEP Ohio. Each SSO Supplier should understand the terms of the Master SSO Supply Agreement and the obligations of the SSO Supplier thereunder. Each SSO Supplier, on its own account, should also understand and price the risk in fulfilling such SSO Supply obligations. This assessment is on each SSO Supplier as each SSO Suppler is responsible for supplying the SSO Supply product.Please note that the Master SSO Supply Agreement provides further and full details on the obligations of the SSO Supplier. While you are responsible for reviewing the entirety of the Master SSO Supply Agreement and agreeing to its terms, we note that the SSO Supplier’s obligations to provide SSO Supply, as well as other obligations, are referenced in section 3.1, and that additional obligations are discussed throughout Article 3 and the Agreement more generally. Attachment F provides a sample PJM invoice that identifies line items of the PJM billing statement, in terms of whether such item is the responsibility of the responsibility of the SSO Supplier. As the various PJM services are itemized, please note which services the SSO Supplier is or is not responsible for under the Master SSO Supply Agreement.
The CBP Auction Manager responds to questions on the Competitive Bidding Process itself and on the governing documents. The remainder of your question mainly concerns pricing risk. Pricing of any risk is an evaluation for which each bidder is entirely responsible, and not the CBP Auction Manager or AEP Ohio. PJM may be able to provide information regarding ancillary services; market data on ancillary services is available on PJM’s website: http://pjm.com/markets-and-operations/ancillary-services.aspx and PJM has other resources available to PJM members: http://www.pjm.com/en/about-pjm/who-we-are/contact-us. An SSO Supplier may choose to secure information about PJM’s markets from other sources.
To reiterate and notwithstanding the foregoing, each bidder is responsible for its own independent assessment of all sources of information that may be pertinent and is responsible for making all investigations it deems necessary or advisable in its sole discretion before deciding to participate in any auction under the CBP.

FAQ-106:
How does the March 2nd PUCO Order change the auction product under AEP Ohio’s CBP?
On March 2, 2016, the Public Utilities Commission of Ohio issued a Finding and Order in Case No. 16-247-EL-UNC. To comply with this Order, AEP Ohio is removing the load of Percentage of Income Payment Plan customers (“PIPP Customers”) from the auction product under AEP Ohio’s CBP. This change is effective starting with the fourth auction under AEP Ohio’s CBP and only affects auctions under AEP Ohio’s CBP going forward. Master SSO Supply Agreements signed pursuant to winning bids in prior auctions under AEP Ohio’s CBP are unaffected by this Order.

FAQ-104:
If the RFP auction process fails to procure supply for PIPP Customers, will SSO Suppliers be required to serve the PIPP load?
No. If the initial RFP auction process was not successful, then a supplemental RFP auction would be held. If the supplemental RFP auction was also unsuccessful, then AEP Ohio would procure supply through the market.
