ATTACHMENT 12: VERIFICATION FROM CARBON POLLUTION-FREE ELECTRICITY

SUPPLIER

I, (print name and title) ______________________________________________, verify, on behalf of (name of

Energy Attribute Certificate (EAC) provider)___________________, that 1) all the EACs sold under this GSA

Contract No.___________________ (the Contract) were generated by eligible Carbon Pollution-Free Electricity

(CFE) generators as defined by this Contract 2) all the environmental attributes, including any emissions reduction credits or emissions allowances which are specifically owned by or to which the EAC generator is otherwise entitled to convey, represented by the EAC purchased under this Contract were transferred to the

Government; 3) the environment attributes represented by the EACs were not sold, marketed, or otherwise claimed by a third party; and 4) the EACs comply with the CFE generation requirements contained in Section

A.11 of the Contract

Name of EAC product:

I further verify that the EACs claimed for the product were sold once and only once, and that the electrical energy that was generated with the EACs claimed was not sold, marketed, or otherwise represented as CFE and was not used to meet any voluntary or mandated federal, state or local CFE requirement, other CFE procurement, renewable portfolio standard, or other renewable or CFE mandate. I have authority to submit this report on the company’s behalf.

1 Please enter Energy Information Administration (EIA) identification number for the generating facility. If the facility does not have an EIA number, please enter the utility-assigned Qualifying Facility (QF) identification number.

Hydrokinetic (including tidal, wave, current, and thermal)

Note: Modifications must result in new resource capacity additions. Modifications that result in increased power output from existing capacity do not qualify as new resource capacity additions or reestablish an existing generating resource’s placed-in-service date.

* For resources that have been modified to result in new resource capacity additions, please indicate either the new capacity or new capacity added to existing resource capacity in megawatts (MW), the placed-in-service date of the new resource capacity (MM/DD/YYYY), whether the new resource capacity additions are independently metered (Y/N) apart from existing resource capacity, the megawatt-hour and EAC output resulting from the new resource capacity only and provide a brief description of the modification (e.g., new wind turbines, additional solar panels) in the space provided below.

** For resources that are existing, please indicate the existing resource capacity (MW) or the existing resource capacity (MW) prior to new resource capacity additions, as well as the placed-in-service date of any existing resource capacity.

*** Please provide other information including the total megawatt-hours (MWh) and EACs sold from both new and existing resource capacity, whether the generator’s total output (MWh) is sold under this contract, the vintage of generation delivered (list separate MWh line items by month/quarter), and indicate the balancing authority of the generating resource.

If multiple facilities are being used for this contract, Contractors are required to provide a completed copy of this form for each facility.

ATTACHMENT 14: CARBON POLLUTION-FREE ELECTRICITY VERIFICATION

The (indicate the number)___________________Energy Attribute Certificates (EAC) listed in Attachment 13 were sold exclusively to (name of EAC provider) ________________________________________. Further, 1) all the environmental attributes, including any emissions reduction credits or emissions allowances which are specifically owned by or to which the EAC generator is otherwise entitled to convey, represented by the carbon pollution-free electricity (CFE) generation listed below, were transferred to the EAC provider above; 2) to the best of my knowledge, the EACs were not sold, marketed or otherwise claimed by a third party; 3) the EACs were sold once and only once; 4) the electrical energy that was generated with the attributes was not used on-site for generation2;

and 5) the electrical energy that was generated with the attributes was not separately sold, marketed or otherwise represented as CFE and was not used to meet any federal, state or local requirement, separate procurement, portfolio standard, or other energy mandate.

The facilities that generated all of the EACs sold to (Name of EAC supplier) ________________________________________ are listed in Attachment 13 by fuel type.

I have authority to submit this report on the company’s behalf.

CERTIFICATE NOTIFICATION

(Contractor Name) __________________________ verifies that Energy Attribute Certificate(s) (EACs) in the amounts described in Attachment 14, associated with power generation from the carbon pollution-free electricity

(CFE) source(s) listed in Attachment 14, have been provided to the Government in accordance with the terms of

Contract No. __________________________ for the period (Insert Dates)__________________________. The

EACs provided to the Government include emissions, and other environmental characteristics and non-power attributes associated with carbon pollution-free resources. (Contractor Name) __________________________ represents that the environmental attributes, including any attendant emission credits which are specifically owned by or to which the EAC generator is otherwise entitled to convey, that are the subject of this Notification have not been sold, reserved, or conveyed to any party other than Government and that the electric power generated in association with this/these EACs has not been represented to retain or possess such attributes. The

EACs that are the subject of this Notification are based upon the generation of electricity from (Insert type of CFE

Resource(s)) __________________________ __________________________at (Insert Source Facility

Location(s))__________________________ . The total amount of EACs covered by this Notification is:(Insert

ATTACHMENT 16: CARBON POLLUTION-FREE ELECTRICITY CALCULATIONS

(Contractor Name) __________________________ verifies the following calculations represent the annual kWh usage and EACs retired by account to the best of Contractor’s records. Note that while the below template may be used if the Contractor is serving five or fewer accounts under a specific contract, Contractors may elect to provide this information in an excel spreadsheet or CSV file. If the Contractor elects to provide this information in an excel spreadsheet or CSV file, they must request a template from the GSA Contracting Officer specified in

Section A.15 of the Contract and that template must be submitted back to GSA with the calculations.

The number of EACs retired by account in the bottom table must match the kWhs by account multiplied by the carbon pollution-free electricity (CFE) percentage by account. The sum of the number of EACs specified in the bottom table must match the number of EACs specified in Attachments thirteen (13) and fourteen (14).
