Question: Does Duke anticipate that the 2026 RFP and subsequent procurement cycles will follow the timeline outlined in the 2026 RFP Stakeholder presentation (with July proposal due dates), rather than the September due dates observed in prior RFP cycles?

Answer: Yes, we anticipate the 2026 RFP to follow the timeline outlined in the 2026 RFP Stakeholder presentation in order to keep the RSC in between annual cluster cycles. We do not yet have the timeline developed for subsequent procurement cycles.
