Consistent with the requirements of the Certificate of Convenience and Necessity granted in Docket No. 32382, Alabama Power Company (“the Company”) is proposing two fifteen-year Energy Purchase Agreements in connection with the Walker Springs I & II Solar Projects. The projects will be constructed, owned, operated, and maintained by Alabama Solar G, LLC and Alabama Solar H, LLC. Detailed project information was submitted to the Alabama Public Service Commission (“the Commission”) Staff on September 1, 2022.
As part of its proposal, the Company is also requesting approval of two customer participation contracts (Renewable Subscription Program) between Alabama Power and Mercedes-Benz U.S. International, Inc.

The Staff has reviewed the information provided by the Company, together with other information obtained throughout the review process, and has determined that the Walker Springs I & II Solar Projects meet the criteria specified in the Certificate granted in Docket No. 32382. The Staff likewise finds the customer participation contracts to be in furtherance of the objectives of Docket No. 32382.
