Solicitation Notice for ERCIP - Ansbach Storck Barracks Microgrid W912QR26RA025

USAG Ansbach Storck Barracks Microgrid The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Louisville District intends to issue a Request for Proposal (RFP) W912QR 26RA015 for the construction of a Microgrid at the USAG Ansbach Storck Barracks at Ansbach, Germany. DESCRIPTION: The proposed project is a Design-Bid-Build new construction of a microgrid for the installation of Ansbach Storck Barracks, Germany. The project will Construct a resilient microgrid with diverse energy sources to include two diesel fuel generators with additional fuel storage, a battery energy storage system (BESS), and a solar photovoltaic (PV) to provide daily onsite renewable energy generation to offset incoming power from the local utility. Additionally, this project will also include, and a microgrid controller to control all energy generation assets and manage electrical loads. This project upgrades of the medium voltage switchgear at Storck Barrack that is required for microgrid operation and installation of solar PV power production, BESS, and generator power output. This microgrid system will connect and distribute power on a government-owned electrical distribution system within the fence line of the installation by connecting to the existing electrical distribution loop, thereby providing resilient power to 100% of the critical facilities at Storck Barracks. The solar PV system will include ground mount solar array(s), rooftop solar, and/or multiple semi-permanent carport/canopy type solar (PV) systems. These solar PV systems shall include all necessary mounting structures, solar panels, racking systems, inverters, transformers, controls, all necessary electrical and communication wiring, as well as any other minor equipment to allow proper functionality as part of a robust microgrid. This microgrid will have the ability to charge the BESS from utility power, the solar PV system, or the diesel fuel power generators. As part of the solar PV assemblies, lighting will be included with photocell controls to provide additional lighting in those areas. Due to the upcoming stationing actions at the installation along with the space limitations, any PV carport/canopy structures should be capable of being relocated, if necessary. The Contract Duration is seven hundred thirty (730) calendar days from Notice to Proceed. TYPE OF CONTRACT AND NAICS: This RFP will be for one (1) Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP) contract.
