- Description
- The Air Force is conducting a market research to identify responsible sources and obtain information in regard to purchasing renewable electric power for the McGuire and Lakehurst portion of Joint Base McGuire Dix Lakehurst, New Jersey. Specifically, the Air Force desires to purchase power generated from a photovoltaic (PV) system located on base, developed and constructed by a private entity or entities. The intent of the Air Force is to enter into a Power Purchase Agreement (PPA) for the acquisition of approximately 10 megawatts (MW) of power, without any interest in the ownership of the PV system. The objective would be to incorporate all available Federal and State incentives or rebates for this type of renewable system into the project in order to maximize cost competitiveness with the current electric commodity. The PV systems will be located on the roof tops at McGuire, and land available at McGuire and Lakehurst.. Finally, it is the Air Force desire to purchase power at a rate which is lower than what is currently being purchased for the base. The local electric utility company, Jersey Central Power & Light (JCP&L), delivers electricity to the McGuire and Lakehurst locations. The electricity (kWh) delivered by JCP&L is purchased through a Defense Logistics Agency Energy (DLA-E contract, currently supplied by Hess Energy. The Air Force requests that interested parties submit a Statement of Interest with responses to the attached questionnaire and as a minimum supply the following information: (1) Name and location of company, type of business, (2) capability and pertinent experience, (3) financial capacity to develop and construct a PV system of desired magnitude and (4) points of contact. Elaborate responses are neither required nor desired. Any innovative and/or new conceptual ideas and recommendations for PPA alternatives are highly encouraged. All information submitted will be considered proprietary and confidential. The Statement of Interest is due 15 days after this posting date. The maximum length of the Statement is 7 pages. THIS IS NOT A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL (RFP) AND A CONTRACT AWARD WILL NOT BE MADE FROM THE ATTACHED STATEMENT OF INTEREST. JB MDL IS REQUESTING ASSISTANCE FROM THE INDUSTRY IN THE PREPARATION OF A PPA FOR A PV GENERATED POWER CONTRACT. YOUR ANSWERS TO THE ATTACHED QUESTIONAIRE MAY BE USED TO TAILOR THE PROPOSED SOLICITATION DESCRIBED HEREIN. POC: MS. Lynn Womack ( lynn.womack@us.af.mil ) OR Ms. Luelmer Brown (luelmer.brown@us.af.mil). Ms. Womack CAN BE REACHED AT 609-754-3519 OR Ms. Brown CAN BE REACHED AT 609-754-4709. RESPONSES TO THIS RFI SHOULD BE E-MAILED AND SENT TO THEIR ATTENTION AT: 2402 VANDENBERG AVE, JOINT BASE MCGUIRE-DIX-LAKEHURST, NEW JERSEY 08641. STATEMENT OF INTEREST QUESTIONAIRE: The primary purpose of this RFI is to seek discussion and feedback on these issues/ questions: 1. Incorporation of all available Federal and State incentives and rebates, impacts to the type of project discussed, and any concerns or risks. 2. Impacts to aviation from large photovoltaic systems installed in and around critical aviation corridors adjacent to runways.
