Standard Distributed Energy Sales Agreement, Creditworthiness Among Issues To Be Considered By N.Y. PSC in Licensing Distributed Resource Providers
The New York PSC issued a discussion document drafted by Staff in advance of a previously reported technical conference on distributed energy resource provider licensing.
Among other things Staff posits for discussion is whether customer sales agreements with distributed energy resource providers should include a Customer Disclosure Statement on the first page.
Staff also lists as one of the questions (though stated in a declaratory manner), "Residential customers must be provided the right to cancel a sales agreement within three business days after receipt."
Staff also asks what are the advantages and disadvantages of "standard" sales agreements?
"Should such standard sales agreements be developed by the industry for approval by the Commission," Staff asks.
Staff also directs attention to the financial fitness of distributed energy resource providers
"Should DER providers be required to agree to creditworthiness standards designed to protect the DPS [sic] and utility customers from risk that DER providers might default on tariff or contract obligations associated with sales to the DSP [distribution system platform provider]? If so, what creditworthiness requirements are appropriate," Staff asks.
