    May 25, 2018 Request for Proposals No. 28017 Offsite Virtual Net Metering I. Introduction The Rhode Island Airport Corporation (RIAC) seeks proposals from qualified enterprises to provide offsite virtual net metering through which any net metering credits will accrue to the benefit of RIAC (the RFP). Respondents are free to propose any development model that satisfies the requirements of chapter 26.4 of title 39 of the Rhode Island General Laws. Respondents will have sole responsibility for planning, permitting, designing, installing, financing, operating, and maintaining the virtual net metering system. II. General Background RIAC manages the State of Rhode Island’s six airports and is a subsidiary of the Rhode Island Commerce Corporation (CommerceRI). RIAC was created on December 9, 1992, as a subsidiary public corporation, governmental agency, and public instrumentality having a distinct legal existence from CommerceRI and the State. RIAC assumed responsibility for the State’s six airports on July 1, 1993. The powers of RIAC are vested in a seven-member Board of Directors that is authorized, pursuant to its Articles of Incorporation and the Lease and Operating Agreement among the State of Rhode Island, the Rhode Island Department of Transportation, and RIAC, dated as of June 25, 1993, to undertake the planning, development, management, and operation of the six airports —T.F. Green State Airport, North Central State Airport, Newport State Airport, Block Island State Airport, Quonset State Airport, and Westerly State Airport.

    Introduction RHODE ISLAND AIRPORT CORPORATION BUDGET FOR FISCAL YEAR 2016 INTRODUCTION The Rhode Island Airport Corporation (RIAC) was created by the Rhode Island Port Authority and Economic Development Corporation, now the Rhode Island Commerce Corporation (Commerce RI), on December 9, 1992, as a subsidiary public corporation, governmental agency and public instrumentality, having a distinct legal existence from the State of Rhode Island (State), and Commerce RI, and having many of the same powers and purposes of Commerce RI. Pursuant to its Articles of Incorporation, RIAC is empowered to undertake the planning, development, management, acquisition, ownership, operations, repair, construction, reconstruction, rehabilitation, renovation, improvement, maintenance, sale, lease, or other disposition of any “airport facility” as defined in Rhode Island General Law. Pursuant to the Lease and Operating Agreement by and between the State of Rhode and Providence Plantations, the Rhode Island Department of Transportation, and RIAC dated as of June 25, 1993, RIAC leased, initially for a period of thirty (30) years, all of the airports which previously had been under the jurisdiction of the Department of Transportation of the State of Rhode Island. The Lease Agreement was extended in Fiscal Year 2008 through June 30, 2038. The rental rate per the lease is $1 per year. Pursuant to the Lease Agreement, effective July 1, 1993, the State transferred to RIAC all of the personal property and other assets of the State located at or relating to the six airports. RIAC operates on a July 1 to June 30 fiscal year (FY) basis. RIAC was created to operate as a self-sustaining entity and receives no funds from the State’s General Purpose Fund for the operation and maintenance of any of the six airports under its jurisdiction.
