Retail Supply - Carbon Pollution-Free Electricity

This request for information (RFI) seeks to identify energy procurement options and develop strategies for reaching 100% Carbon Pollution-Free Electricity (CFE) by 2030 in support of the goals expressed in Section 203 of Executive Order (E.O.) 14057, Catalyzing Clean Energy Industries and Jobs Through Federal Sustainability (December 8, 2021). Through this RFI, GSA will gather information regarding the availability of CFE in the retail electricity market and ways for the federal government to incentivize additional production and delivery. GSA will use this information to develop procurement strategies nationwide beginning with energy providers in the region operated by the Electric Reliability Council of Texas (ERCOT). ERCOT manages the flow of electric power to more than 26 million customers, which reflects approximately 90 percent of Texas’ electric load. Please refer to the RFI for additional details.
