3line 6, by deleting "and 1-94"; and
 
4on page 7, immediately below line 23, by inserting the 
5following:
6    ""Availability" means the percentage of time the energy 
7storage system is capable of charging or discharging."; and
 
8on page 12, by replacing lines 7 through 10 with "contract 
9under Section 1-93."; and
 
10on page 15, by replacing lines 3 and 4 with "one megawatt of 
11energy storage capacity each month that the contracted 
12energy"; and

3    ""Independent engineer" means a neutral, third-party 
4engineer engaged in designing energy storage projects."; and
 
5on page 20, immediately below line 1, by inserting the 
6following:
7    ""Measured capacity" means the output of an energy storage 
8system measured in megawatts at the point of change of control 
9between the energy storage system and the utility.
10    "Measured duration" means the output of an energy storage 
11system measured in megawatt hours divided by the measured 
12capacity at the point of change of control between the energy 
13storage system and the utility.
14    "Measured round-trip efficiency" means the ratio of the 
15energy discharged from the energy storage system to the energy 
16delivered to it during the charging process, expressed as a 
17percentage."; and

1        "(30) To buy and sell, in the PJM and MISO markets, all 
2    products that contracted energy storage systems are 
3    capable of producing. All revenues obtained by the Agency 
4    shall be used to offset the energy storage payments."; and
 
5on page 37, line 6, after "2024", by inserting "with an energy 
6storage duration of at least 4 hours"; and
 
7on page 37, line 8, after "2026", by inserting "with an energy 
8storage duration of at least 4 hours"; and

10on page 80, immediately below line 25, by inserting the 
11following:
12            "(v) Once every contract year, an independent 
13        engineer shall verify the measured capacity, the 
14        measured round-trip efficiency, and the measured 
15        duration of the contracted energy storage system. If 
16        the measured capacity is less than the energy storage 
17        capacity, the energy storage system has 3 months to 
18        cure the problem or the Agency shall reduce the energy 
19        storage capacity to the measured capacity. If the 
20        measured duration is less than the energy storage 
21        duration, the energy storage system has 3 months to 
22        cure the problem or the Agency shall reduce the energy

1        storage capacity to the measured duration. If the 
2        availability of the energy storage system in any 2 
3        consecutive years drops below 80%, the contract may be 
4        terminated by the Agency. If the availability of the 
5        energy storage system drops below 85% in a month, the 
6        energy storage credit will be reduced by the 
7        availability of the energy storage system multiplied 
8        by the energy storage credit value.".
