Notice of Request | Proposals to Support Governance Model Initiatives for REM
On the first day of the Restructured Energy Market (REM) Design Finalization Session (Week 1), the AESO presented an overview of the 2025 engagement activities across the REM, Optimal Transmission Planning (OTP) and Tariff engagements.
As part of the REM development, we are seeking independent external expertise with respect to our design work and rules development, and stakeholder feedback process. To augment our engagement approach and review our design process, we will be contracting the services of independent parties and have issued Requests for Proposals (RFPs).
Interested parties wishing to participate in the formal process can review the RFPs by visiting Alberta Purchasing Connection.

Purpose
We have embarked on a multi-phased engagement with industry stakeholders to advance work on the new market design. It is comprised of a series of information sessions, written feedback cycles, and design sessions (sprints) to dive deeper into each workstream to explore and consider stakeholder perspectives and inputs prior to beginning the rules consultation process.
We will strive to ensure overall alignment with the stated REM objectives of:
- Reliability
- Affordability
- Decarbonization by 2050
- Reasonable implementation
