Third-party demand response providers (DRPs) will be paid by check or ACH/wire transfer after the invoice is accepted and approved. SCE will issue payments within 60 days of the invoice date, absent the need for additional information, which would set the 60 days from the time all additional information is received, accepted, and approved, to process the invoice. In case of an audit, the 60-day period is frozen until there is resolution to SCE’s satisfaction.
Capacity Bidding Program (CBP) and Base Interruptible Program (BIP) aggregators will receive ELRP payments through the same process CBP and BIP payments are made, respectively. Virtual Power Plant (VPP), Vehicle-grid integration (VGI), and non-residential aggregators will be paid by check or ACH/wire transfer. Aggregators will receive compensation for the ELRP season on or before March 31 of the following year.
