The Bioenergy Market Adjusting Tariff (BioMAT) Program is a feed-in tariff initiative designed to procure renewable energy from bioenergy projects across multiple Community Choice Aggregators (CCAs) including PG&E service territory (RCEA, Pioneer, 3CE) and Southern California Edison service territory (OCPA, 3CE). The program provides pricing opportunities for power purchase agreements (PPAs) in three biomass energy categories.
The program currently has remaining capacity available following the final period. Project participants (PPRs) remaining in fuel resource category queues are permitted to accept the final price and execute a PPA subject to conditions outlined in the Tariff regarding the Final Period. The acceptance deadline for remaining projects is March 31, 2026.
For PG&E territories, the program maintains 73.281 MW of total remaining capacity across three categories: Category 1 (28.047 MW at $127.72/MWh), Category 2 (12.314 MW at $187.72/MWh for dairy and $183.72/MWh for other agriculture), and Category 3 (32.920 MW at $199.72/MWh). For SCE territories, total remaining capacity is 103.7 MW across the same three categories with identical pricing. Available allocation opportunities exist through March 31, 2026, with 12 MW available in Categories 1 and 2, and 2.5-12 MW available in Category 3 depending on the service territory.
