DOE to auction PDAs for RE service contracts 0 SHARES Share it! Share TweetBy Myrna M. VelascoThe Department of Energy (DOE) is enforcing changes in the award of service contracts to renewable energy (RE) developers with its intended offer of pre-determined areas (PDAs) for such installations. In the draft revised guidelines issued on the administration of RE operating and service contracts, the energy department indicated that interested parties can now apply with the DOE for PDAs on RE developments. The department’s Renewable Energy Management Bureau (REMB) will be the entity in-charge of identifying the pre-determined areas for RE projects; and the DOE offer to investors must be accompanied with location maps and technical descriptions of the area. For the proposed auction of RE pre-determined areas, the DOE emphasized that it will schedule a formal launching activity and the submission of RE service contract applications shall be set upon fixed timeframes.
