Application
Concord Vulcan GP2 Ltd. (“Vulcan GP2”) applied pursuant to s 3 of the Fair, Efficient and Open Competition Regulation (“FEOCR”), seeking permission to share records not available to the public regarding the Vulcan Solar Project consisting of a 22-megawatt (“MW”) solar plant and a 16-MW battery energy storage system. Vulcan GP2 applied to share the records between Vulcan GP2, Concord Vulcan Partnership (“Vulcan Partnership”), URICA Energy Real Time Ltd. (“URICA Real Time”) and URICA Asset Optimization Ltd. (“URICA Optimization”).
Decision
The AUC was satisfied that Vulcan GP2 had demonstrated that: (i) the sharing of records was reasonably necessary for Vulcan 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.
