4111.1 The SOS Administrator may at any time request Commission approval to make changes in the Electric Company's tariffs. However, to the extent that those tariff changes would require conforming changes to the RFP for Wholesale Full Requirements Service supply of SOS, the WFRSA generally, or any WFRSA that may be in effect from time to time, or any Long-Term Renewable Energy PPA(s):
(a) No such tariff changes may alter the rights and obligations of any Wholesale SOS Provider with respect to any WFRSA or any Renewable Energy Generator with respect to any Long-Term Renewable Energy PPA(s) for which an RFP has already been issued, unless the Wholesale SOS Provider or Renewable Energy Generator consents to have its rights or obligations changed;(b) The SOS Administrator shall serve notice of the requested tariff change and copies of the proposed conforming changes to the RFP and/or WFRSA on all parties; and(c) Any such tariff changes must be consistent with the regulations, orders or other obligations to which the SOS Administrator is subject.4111.2If, after conducting the bid procedures in accordance with the RFP, the SOS Administrator still has SOS load that has not been awarded to a Wholesale SOS Provider and cannot be supplied by CREFs, then:
(a) The SOS Administrator shall initially supply the unserved load by purchasing energy and all other necessary services through the PJM-administered markets, including but not limited to the PJM energy, capacity, and ancillary services markets, and any other service required by PJM to serve such unserved load, and shall include all the costs of such purchases in the retail rates charged for the service for which the purchases are made. (b) Within five (5) business days of it being determined by the SOS Administrator that the load is unserved, the SOS Administrator shall convene a meeting of all parties to the proceeding and Commission staff to discuss alternative ways to fill the unserved load, including but not limited to a rebid or a bilateral contract. The meeting process will conclude within ten (10) business days of the load being determined to be unserved, and within twenty (20) calendar days of it being determined that the load is unserved, the SOS Administrator shall file with the Commission, and serve upon the all parties to the proceeding, any proposal it has for serving the load in lieu of the procedure set forth in Subsection 4111.2(a); and (c) The Commission will resolve the SOS Administrator's filing on an expedited basis. Any alternative means that the Commission approves will expressly provide that the SOS Administrator's costs for filling the load will be recovered in retail rates in the same manner as all other charges pursuant to Subsection 4103.1. Until the Commission approves an alternate means of filling the load, Subsection 4111.2(a) will apply.4111.3 If any load is left unserved after a Wholesale SOS Provider of Wholesale Full Requirements Service or a Renewable Energy Generator pursuant to a Long-Term Renewable Energy PPA(s) defaults:
(a) The SOS Administrator shall initially supply the defaulted load by purchasing energy and all other necessary services through the PJM-administered markets, including but not limited to the PJM energy, capacity, and ancillary services markets, and any other service required by PJM to serve such defaulted load, and shall include all the costs of such purchases, net of any offsetting recovery from the defaulting Wholesale SOS Provider or Renewable Energy Generator, in the retail rates charged for the service for which the purchases are made; and(b) As soon as practicable after it is determined by the SOS Administrator that the load is unserved, the SOS Administrator shall file with the Commission a plan to fill the remaining term of the defaulted WFRSA or Long-Term Renewable Energy PPA(s). Such a plan shall be submitted to the Commission within ten (10) business days after a Wholesale SOS Provider or a Renewable Energy Generator default. Until the Commission approves a plan to fill the remaining term of the defaulted WFRSA, Subsection 4111.3(a) will apply.4111.4Access to confidential information relating to the SOS Administrator's procurement of SOS power supply will be governed by the OPC Confidentiality Agreement, the Consultant's Confidentiality Agreement contained in the Bidder RFP, and the Confidentiality Agreement contained in the RFP and the confidentiality provisions of the WFRSA (collectively the "Confidentiality Agreements").
4111.5Ninety (90) days following the Commission's approval of the selection of winning bidders for the final tranche, the Commission will disclose upon request (a) the total number of bidders, and (b) the names of the winning bidders.
