SREC Delaware Procurement

Each year the SREC Delaware program is open for bids during a two-week procurement window. The SREC Delaware Program only accepts bid applications during this two-week window. During each procurement, participants submit bids for the price they would be willing to accept per SREC. At the end of the two-week window, the Program Administrator verifies that all bids are valid, and then accepts the lowest valid bids in each tier until the tier is full. Please see our About page for more information on the SREC Delaware Program.
