The Department of Energy Western Area Power Administration awarded a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement to UL Services Group LLC to provide Variable Energy Resource weather forecasting services. The BPA has a potential value of $250,000 over a one-year base period and four one-year options, to support WAPA's participation in the California Independent System Operator Energy Imbalance Market. The awardee will send day-ahead, hourly, and 5-minute forecasts for all WAPA-registered renewable energy resources directly to CAISO per its guidelines, and in parallel to WAPA and its merchant for visualization.
