- Description
- Renewable electric power supply for various Federal Accounts in PJM NAICS Codes 221111, 221114, 221115, 221116, 221117 and 221118 The General Services Administration is requesting proposals from small businesses for the provision of grid based electric supply with or without accompanying renewable energy certificates (RECs) within the PJM grid control area from a new renewable energy resource for delivery to PJM beginning in 2015/16. To be considered new, renewable projects may not have initiated deliveries into the grid prior to the closing date for this request for proposals. Projects proposed must have a PJM Interconnection Agreement in place or be near to final approval. Contracts must be for no more than a 10 year period. A 10 year option period will be considered. GSA will not consider projects that are contingent on the extension of the wind Production Tax Credit (PTC). There is no minimum or maximum renewable resource size, however, GSA's renewable need in 2020 to meet the Administration's 20% renewable purchase goal for GSA is approximately 500-550,000 MWhs. In addition, GSA has approximately 810,000 MWhs of annual electric usage in deregulated PJM markets. GSA also purchases a significant amount of power in PJM deregulated markets for Federal and non-Federal agencies. To the extent economically advantageous, GSA will consider purchasing in excess of the 20% figure. GSA will consider all renewable resource types that meet the Federal definitions of renewable power. In any resulting contract, GSA will only pay for renewable power delivered to the PJM grid. GSA will generally make all payments to the contractor via a transaction management firm/energy supplier that GSA will contract for separately. Proposals must include the following: a copy of the PJM Interconnection Agreement; an in-depth description of the new renewable resource project; the PJM node where deliveries will occur; an Excel spreadsheet with one year of modeled hourly output to the PJM node; pricing for each year in $/MWh for the renewable energy; the escalation factor included in pricing; the offeror's DUNS number; the offeror's System for Award Management (SAM) registration; proposed contract terms and conditions; and any additional information that the offeror believes would assist GSA in evaluating the project. Multiple awards will be considered. Evaluation: Projects with a signed PJM Interconnection Agreement are preferred although projects nearing final interconnection approval will be considered. GSA will evaluate proposals by determining the market value of the renewable energy to be produced by the new renewable energy resource and compare that to the pricing proposed. If included in the proposal, GSA will determine the market value of any RECs/SRECs proposed and compare that to the pricing proposed. GSA will rank order the projects proposed based on the most favorable from an economic standpoint to GSA. For those projects that GSA deems favorable, GSA will seek to negotiate acceptable contract terms and conditions. GSA, at its discretion, may elect to include or not include the RECs/SRECs in any resulting contract depending on the economic value and risk to GSA. GSA encourages tribal entities to offer and will provide preference for such entities to the extent authorized by Public Law No. 109-58, codified at 25 U.S.C. § 3502(d). GSA makes no guarantee of award to favorable projects as award will be contingent upon reaching acceptable terms and conditions. Electronic responses are due no later than 11:00 a.m. on June 27, 2014 via email to the Contracting Officer. Contact Mr. Ken Shutika on (202) 329-1826 (ken.shutika@gsa.gov) if you have any questions.
