DLA Energy - Energy Attribute Certificates (EACs) in the form of Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs)
Section B, Table 1: Supplies to be Furnished
SECTION C – STATEMENT OF WORK /SPECIFICATIONS
(a) PURPOSE: This Basic Ordering Agreement (BOA) between Act Commodities, Inc. (herein “DLA BOA Holder”) and the Defense Logistics Agency Energy (herein “DLA Energy”) is entered into for the potential supply of Energy Attribute Certificate (EACs) in the form of Renewable Energy Certificates (RECs).
(b) BACKGROUND: RECs serve a common function in the renewable industry in tracing the attributes of a given megawatt-hour of electricity from a producer to a consumer. The REC market is separate to the electricity market. Even though RECs are associated with a specific unit of electricity, the REC markets are not about allocating the electricity but are about allocating its attributes. RECs allow consumers to claim the environmental benefit of CFE production for their own electricity consumption and/or the consumption of energy production within the EO compliant area their facility is located. As CFE generators produce electricity, they create one REC for every 1000 kilowatt-hours (or 1

(8) Energy Attribute Certificate (EAC) 6 : “Energy attribute certificate (EAC)” is an instrument that conveys information (attributes) about a unit of energy, including the resource used to create it, and the emissions associated with its production and use. A renewable energy certificate, or REC, is a type of EAC. EACs must be from generation resources that:
• Produce CFE;
• Were placed in service on or after October 1, 2021, either as a new resource or as new capacity at an existing resource modified to increase output; and
• Deliver CFE to the same grid region of Federal facility consumption.
EACs may be generated within six months prior to or three months after the net annual CFE compliance year. For example, for RECs to count in FY 2023 reporting, they must have been produced between April 1, 2022, and Jan. 1, 2023.
(9) Grid region 7 means the area of the grid within which a balancing authority maintains balance between electric load and resources.
(10) Qualifying REC(s): For the purpose of this BOA, the term “Qualifying REC(s)” is to mean the REC(s) which meet all standards/requirements identified in the Executive Order 14057.

Unique entity identifier means a number or other identifier used to identify a specific commercial, nonprofit, or Government entity. See www.sam.gov for the designated entity for establishing unique entity identifiers.
(b)If the solicitation for this contract contained the provision 52.204-7 with its Alternate I, and the Contractor was unable to register prior to award, the Contractor shall be registered in SAM within 30 days after award or before three days prior to submission of the first invoice, whichever occurs first.
(c)The Contractor shall maintain registration in SAM during contract performance and through final payment of any contract, basic agreement, basic ordering agreement, or blanket purchasing agreement. The Contractor is responsible for the currency, accuracy and completeness of the data within SAM, and for any liability resulting from the Government's reliance on inaccurate or incomplete data. To remain registered in SAM after the initial registration, the Contractor is required to review and update on an annual basis, from the date of initial registration or subsequent updates, its information in SAM to ensure it is current, accurate and complete. Updating information in SAM does not alter the terms and conditions of this contract and is not a substitute for a properly executed contractual document.
(d)
(1)
(i)If a Contractor has legally changed its business name or “doing business as” name (whichever is shown on the contract), or has transferred the assets used in performing the contract, but has not completed the necessary requirements regarding novation and change-of-name agreements in subpart 42.12, the Contractor shall provide the responsible Contracting Officer a minimum of one business day's written notification of its intention to—
(A)Change the name in SAM;
(B)Comply with the requirements of subpart 42.12 of the FAR; and
(C)Agree in writing to the timeline and procedures specified by the responsible Contracting Officer. The Contractor shall provide with the notification sufficient documentation to support the legally changed name.
(ii)If the Contractor fails to comply with the requirements of paragraph (d)(1)(i) of this clause, or fails to perform the agreement at paragraph (d)(1)(i)(C) of this clause, and, in the absence of a properly executed novation or change-of-name agreement, the SAM information that shows the Contractor to be other than the Contractor indicated in the contract will be considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of the “Suspension of Payment” paragraph of the electronic funds transfer (EFT) clause of this contract.
(2)The Contractor shall not change the name or address for EFT payments or manual payments, as appropriate, in SAM record to reflect an assignee for the purpose of assignment of claims (see FAR subpart 32.8, Assignment of Claims).
Assignees shall be separately registered in the SAM. Information provided to the Contractor’s SAM record that indicates payments, including those made by EFT, to an ultimate recipient other than that Contractor will be considered to be incorrect information within the meaning of the “Suspension of Payment” paragraph of the EFT clause of this contract.
(3)The Contractor shall ensure that the unique entity identifier is maintained with the entity designated at www.sam.gov for establishment of the unique entity identifier throughout the life of the contract. The Contractor shall communicate any change to the unique entity identifier to the Contracting Officer within 30 days after the change, so an appropriate modification can be issued to update the data on the contract. A change in the unique entity identifier does not necessarily require a novation be accomplished.
(e)Contractors may obtain additional information on registration and annual confirmation requirements at https://www.sam.gov.
