The co-facilitators of the RA workshops submitted the proposed dates, scope, and structure for the upcoming workshops to develop an RA program based on PG&E's slice-of-day proposal. The co-facilitators propose a total of 9 half-day workshops to be held every two weeks from September through January. The scope includes consideration of structural elements, resource counting, need determination, hedging, and UCAP.
D .21-07-014 directed Parties to undertake a minimum of five workshops over six months to develop implementation details based on PG&E's slice-of-day proposal. At the conclusion of the workshops, the Workshop Report will be filed by February 2022.
The following issues will be addressed in the report:
The Co-facilitators developed the following logistics to conduct the RA workshops:
1. 9/22: Structural Elements
2. 10/6: Structural Elements
3. 10/20: Resource Counting
4. 11/3: Resource Counting
5. 11/17: Need Determination and Allocation
6. 12/1: Need Determination and Allocation
7. 12/15: Recap on Slice-of-Day
8. 1/5: Hedging Component
9. 1/19: UCAP and Multi-year
Several parties volunteered to facilitate one or more workshops. The following is based on stated preferences and an effort to not have parties facilitate workshops at which they are likely to be presenting material. Subject matter presenters will put together materials, while facilitators will be tasked with facilitating in a neutral way.
Facilitators of the workshops will draft their section of the report, based on notes taken at the workshop. Overall leads for compiling the sections into a final report will be IEP and PG&E. Organizations that have offered to support this final report development include: WPTF and CEERT.
