RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the County Administrator or designee to execute, on behalf of the County, a Community Choice Aggregator Non-Disclosure Agreement with Pacific Gas and Electric Company, including modified indemnification language, to obtain electrical load data within Contra Costa County.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is a $920 charge from PG&E to obtain the requested electrical load data, which will be paid from the approved budget for the Department of Conservation and Development (DCD).
BACKGROUND:
On March 15, 2016, the Board of Supervisors authorized DCD to proceed with conducting a technical study to evaluate alternatives for potential implementation of a Community Choice Energy program. To conduct this study, the County must request and obtain electrical load data from Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) for electrical accounts within the unincorporated area, and within the boundaries of the cities that have authorized the County to obtain such data on their behalf.
