The Guam Power Authority (GPA) shall establish a Virtual Power Plant Program (VPPP) within nine (9) months of enactment of this Article and approval by the Guam Public Utilities Commission (PUC), or ninety (90) days after approval by the Guam Public Utilities Commission (PUC) whichever is earlier, pursuant to § 8311 of Article 3 of this Title, whereby qualified businesses, homeowners, government of Guam agencies, and non- profit organizations are able to host a solar photovoltaic system on their rooftop and battery energy storage systems; and government of Guam-owned buildings shall be the first preference to be Solar Hosts. Developers must provide battery energy storage system capacity necessary to address intermittency and power quality issues. The VPPP shall initially be capped at twenty megawatts (20 MW) of participation, at which time GPA shall assess the impact on the island-wide power system, ratepayers, reliability, and feasibility for an expanded VPPP. Additional VPPP phases and the terms of such, including contract agreement and program capacity ceilings, must be approved by the PUC. The VPPP shall also include the software and computers necessary to manage the production, storage, and output of electricity generated by the network of Solar Hosts in the Virtual Power Plant Program.

GPA shall enter into agreement(s) with solar energy developers for the installation, ownership, maintenance, and/or operation of equipment necessary to create a Virtual Power Plant Program, as defined in § 8602(a) of this Article, providing for the use of qualified rooftops for electricity generated and sold to the utility and to be used by the community.
