The states noted that final acceptance of bids and award of contracts is conditional upon successful negotiation of contracts and required regulatory approvals, as provided in the RFP. As such, not all projects selected to advance to contract negotiation at this stage will necessarily obtain approved contracts, which may affect the total contracted MWs resulting from this RFP.

Final project selection and contracts will be made public following submittal for regulatory approval

Cost recovery for the projects has not yet been addressed

Connecticut’s Department of Energy and Environmental Protection noted that it has cancelled an RFP that sought proposals for natural gas resources, including liquefied natural gas, natural gas pipeline capacity and natural gas storage.
