Inquiries Inquiry 88806 | REDACTED was selected as the Exclusive CSP provider for the City of Columbus Ohio, after winning their RFP in 2025. Thus, we have customer relationships, including the Vern Riffe center already working with us, under our portfolio. The question is to inquire if this existing customer we have, will impact our submission into this RFP. | Answer: The Offeror must outline all potential conflict of interests on Form 7a Offeror Certification Form and the State will review them during the evaluation. | Answered: 5/11/2026 Inquiry 88809 | Hello, REDACTED, as a demand response provider, does not sell, broker, or arrange for retail electric supply; rather, it provides a grid service by coordinating reductions in electricity consumption in response to system or market signals. With this in mind, REDACTED does not believe the CRES certification applies to us. As this is a mandatory requirement in the RFP, does this automatically disqualify REDACTED from being taken into consideration? All the best, REDACTED | Answer: Please see the amendment resulting in lot 1, round 2 for clarification. | Answered: 5/11/2026
