Questions about the 2026 Voluntary Utility-Scale RFP may be submitted to AllSourceRFPmailbox@pse.com. Q&A will be anonymized and posted to the Updates and Notifications section above for the benefit of all interested parties.
Bid Fee Instructions
For a proposal to be considered complete and successfully accepted by PSE, the bidder must submit the proposal through the RFP submission portal and submit the appropriate bid fee within three business days of the proposal due date (see schedule above). Bidders may submit more than one proposal, but must submit a separate bid fee for each proposal.
For complete bid fee submission instructions, see Section 8.3 of the 2026 Voluntary Utility-Scale RFP. Bidders may pay the bid fee via certified check or ACH transfer only. Bidders must annotate on the payment the PROPOSAL ID number. A PROPOSAL ID is generated by the submission portal when a new proposal is initiated by the bidder. Annotating the PROPOSAL ID on the payment is the only way to ensure that a payment will be associated with the corresponding proposal. Failure to annotate a PROPOSAL ID on the method of payment may result in unnecessary delay and/or loss of the bid fee.
