HMP&L will accept offers from any electric utility, independent power producer, qualifying facility, exempt wholesale generator, non-utility generator or electric power marketer that is appropriately certified by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (“FERC”) and that has resources available and operates within the MISO transmission system (“Respondents”). Offers will be evaluated based on their ability to meet HMP&L's need for economic power supply arrangements. HMP&L reserves the right to consider any other factors that HMP&L deems to be relevant to this evaluation of its power supply needs. The evaluation of submittals will be based on the information provided by the Respondent with emphasis on pricing. A submittal deemed non-responsive or failing to provide additional supporting documentation or any clarification requested by HMP&L may be rejected. The Utility Commission reserves the right to reject any or all offers; to reject any or all non-conforming, non-responsive, unbalanced or conditional offers; to reject the proposal of any Respondent if the Utility Commission believes that it would not be in the best interest of HMP&L to make an award to that Respondent, whether because the offer is not responsive or fails to meet any other pertinent standard or criteria established by the Utility Commission. The Utility Commission also reserves the right to negotiate agreement terms and conditions with the successful Respondent. By submitting an offer to the Utility Commission, the Respondent agrees that such procedures will be without liability on the part of the Utility Commission for any damage or claim brought by the Respondent because of such rejections or procedures, nor will the Respondent seek any recourse of any kind against the Utility Commission because of such rejections or procedures. The submission of any offer in response to this RFO will constitute an agreement of the Respondent to these conditions.
