EventResidential Electrification Single Point of Contact Program Solicitation
Date/TimeFriday, March 29, 2024 12:00 AM
LocationPG&E Territory

Opportunity Description:

 Background:

 Pacific Gas and Electric Company (www.pge.com), a subsidiary of PG&E Corporation, is one of the largest combined natural gas and electric energy companies in the United States. Based in Oakland with more than 23,000employees, the company is the primary natural gas and electric service provider for Northern and Central California. The company’s 70,000-square-mile service area stretches from Eureka in the north to Bakersfield in the south and from the Pacific Ocean in the west to the Sierra Nevada in the east. PG&E delivers some of the nation’s cleanest energy to 16 million people.

On May 20, 2021, the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) unanimously approved Proposed Decision (D.) 21-05-031 on the “Assessment of Energy Efficiency Potential and Goals and Modification of Portfolio Approval and Oversight Process” (in Rulemaking 13-11-005). The D. directs the California Investor-Owned Utilities to “further segment their portfolios based on the primary program purpose, into the following three segments”: Resource Acquisition, Market Support, and Equity.

Contract Opportunity Description:

 This solicitation is for a Request for Proposal (RFP) from Third-party (3P) Bidders to design, propose, and implement a Residential Electrification Single Point of Contact program (Program) to be included in PG&E’s Market Support Segment portfolio as directed by the CPUC in D. 18-01-004 and D. 18-05-041.

 Bidders will design and propose to implement a new market support segment program that supports energy efficient building electrification in the residential marketplace. The Program will 1) educate residential customers on building electrification opportunities and benefits by providing households with concierge support in the planning and implementation of building electrification retrofits; and 2) educate contractors on building electrification opportunities and benefits, by providing contractors with technical and logistical information to independently enable building electrification, which is not directly supported by the Program. The Program will generate and support both demand and supply for residential building electrification products and services and propagate the availability of contractors in the market that can effectively provide and champion implementing these elements to achieve building electrification.

The approved budget for this Program shall not exceed $5.5 Million. PG&E may execute one or multiple contracts resulting from the RFP which will be dependent upon the size, scale and comprehensiveness of the Bidder’s Program(s) selected. The contract term is anticipated to be 3.5 years.

 Supply Chain Responsibility Considerations:

The selected supplier is encouraged to align with PG&E’s Supply Chain Responsibility policies and procedures. The supplier will be asked to provide a detailed description of their internal, specific supply chain responsibility program and practices related to supplier diversity, environmental sustainability and ethical business conduct.

 Conduct Requirements:  

The selected Bidder(s), as well as the subcontractors, must adhere to the principles and standards outlined in PG&E’s Supplier Code of Conduct as follows: Supplier Code of Conduct(pge.com)

 Time frame for this Solicitation:

The RFP is tentatively scheduled to release in early February 2024 with responses due end of March 2024. 

 How to Respond:

Bidders interested in participating in this RFP must register in Wood Mackenzie at:

 https://www.poweradvocate.com/pR.do?okey=216225&pubEvent=true

 Bidder registration for this RFP will be open until the bid response due date, tentatively scheduled for late March 2024, unless such due date is otherwise modified by PG&E.
