Description
The Commonwealth of Massachusetts Department of Energy Resources (DOER) seeks qualified firms to provide technical‑assistance services for municipal decarbonization planning. Contractors will help selected Green Communities and Climate Leader municipalities develop a “Zero‑Over‑Time” roadmap that establishes a GHG baseline, identifies trigger‑event‑based decarbonization measures, and schedules implementation to reach net‑zero fossil‑fuel use by 2050. Two levels of service are available: a desktop‑analysis task using existing MassEnergyInsight data (Task 1) and a more intensive task that includes on‑site facility condition assessments (Task 2). The work is billed on an hourly‑rate basis under the state‑wide PRF74 contract, with a three‑year base term and a total ceiling of $750,000.
• Scope includes building‑level emissions analysis, fleet inventory assessment, and creation of a detailed decarbonization roadmap with interim targets (2027, 2030, 2040, 2050).
• Deliverables: baseline emissions tables, facility‑level mitigation analyses, fleet‑replacement plan (if fleet > 35 % of emissions), draft and final roadmaps, and implementation monitoring plan.
• Contractors must initiate an initial meeting with each municipality within 30 business days of assignment and deliver the final roadmap within 90 days of that meeting, unless a different schedule is approved.
