Restating what I think you have indicated below, biomass generators are not required to submit heat rate data (correct), but they are included in the FERC Order Program in that any "excess" capacity is bid in to the ISO at a price of $0. Is that correct? (You are required to "offer" all available capacity to the ISO but the ISO will only insert a $0 standing bid for those units that we have good data as to their available generation (i.e. major PGA units). Can they submit heat rate data if they want so a proxy price north of $0? (Proxy bid price are only calculated for gas-fired units. If they don't want to be a price taker (i.e. have a bid of $0), they simply need to bid their available capacity into the real-time market at whatever bid price they feel is appropriate.)

Subject: RE: Question Q - Are biomass and other renewable Generators subject to the must-offer requirement? What if gas is a supplemental fuel for solar? [As stated in 5.11.1, any non-hydroelectric Generating Unit that is located in California and from which energy or capacity is either I) sold through any market operated by the ISO, or ii) transmitted over the ISO controlled grid are subject to the must-offer requirement. The FERC Order does not exempt renewables other than hydro. This may sound like it is contradicting the the response below, however, it indicates that we will not use a proxy price, but rather, we will submit a zero bid in if you do not already have a bid in and you have available capacity. I will verify.
