Recommandations

Early Learning:

  • Strengths/weaknesses need to be confirmed prior to 2016

Early Market & Contract Rules:

  • Projects require functional contracts to learn and define value
  • Market barriers to investment need to be addressed in pilot contracts (e.g. global adjustment, debt retirement, transparency of ancillary services, pay for performance, etc.)
