From the meeting
At its October 13, 2026 meeting, the board approved revisions to the Wholesale Energy, Regulatory Compliance, and Credit Risk Management Policy. Staff said the update aligns the policy with the District's evolving power supply portfolio, the anticipated BPA Provider of Choice contract, regional resource adequacy programs, and clean energy rules. The decision is a useful signal on upcoming wholesale power procurement and compliance work.

What is a pre-RFP?
A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
