BEC-25: How does the utility meet their load requirement in the case that there is insufficient supply provided under contracts awarded through the procurement process?

As stated in Section 16-111.5.(e)(5)(iii) of Public Act 95-0481 (the “Act”), which includes the Illinois Power Agency Act (“IPA Act”), “In all cases where there is insufficient supply provided under contracts awarded through the procurement process to fully meet the electric utility’s load requirement, the utility shall meet the load requirement by procuring power and energy from the applicable regional transmission organization market, including ancillary services, capacity, and day-ahead or real time energy, or both; provided, however, that if a needed product is not available through the regional transmission organization market it shall be purchased from the wholesale market.”
