Business Practice Manual (BPM) 106 Qualifying Contracts describes how a contract may be able to receive Qualifying Capacity Contribution (QCC) towards a Participant’s Forward Showing (FS) Capacity Requirement and explains when a Joint Contract Accreditation Form (JCAF) is required to ensure contractual resources are not double counted. The Proposed changes to BPM 106 in this NTFP would:
Reduce the administrative burden involved with verifying contracts between Participants via JCAFs by removing the JCAF and signature requirement for Participant-to-Participant transactions; and
Allow a WRAP Participant and its customer whose load is served through a contract with an entity that is not the WRAP Participant (“Embedded Load Customer”) to agree to the WRAP Participant’s use of the customer’s loads and resources contract(s) in its FS Demonstration.
