21-I:17-b Purchase of Electricity by Competitive Bidding. –
I. When evaluating bids for electric power supply and services, the quality of service, the reliability of service, the coordination of services, and other reasonable factors shall be considered in addition to the price of electricity. The bidding process shall be open to bids which serve less than the entire needs of the state, or which provide electric power supply or services separately, in order to increase the number of potential suppliers.
II. When submitting electric power supply bids, vendors should include information, to the extent practicable, on the fuel sources and air pollutant emission profiles of significant sources of generation under the proposed bid.
III. The solicitation of competitive bids for electric power supply shall only apply to wholesale power purchased from the electric grid and does not apply to power purchase agreements under RSA 21-I:19-d, which will result in power generated on state-owned property. Nothing in this section shall be interpreted to mean that any energy contract entered into under RSA 21-I:19-d shall not be subject to competitive bidding.
