Solar – Records
Application
Concord Coaldale GP2 Ltd. (“Coaldale GP2”) applied under s 3 of the Fair, Efficient and Open Competition Regulation (“FEOCR”), seeking permission to share records not available to the public between Coaldale, Concord Coaldale Partnership, URICA Energy Real Time Ltd. and URICA Asset Optimization Ltd. The requested order related to the Coaldale Solar Project (asset ID COL1), which was located near the town of Coaldale and consisted of a 22-megawatt (MW) solar plant and a 15-MW battery energy storage system.
Decision
The AUC was satisfied that Coaldale GP2 had demonstrated that: (i) the sharing of records was reasonably necessary for Coaldale GP2 to carry out its business; and (ii) the subject records would not be used for any purpose that did not support the fair, efficient and openly competitive operation of the Alberta electricity market. The AUC was also satisfied that the total offer control of the parties would not exceed the offer control limit of 30 percent under s 5(5) of the FEOCR. The AUC approved the application.
