Description
The Fort Buchanan Microgrid project is a Design-Bid-Build Construction project to provide an installation-level microgrid at Fort Buchanan, consisting of approximately 8 MW of new diesel generators and 4 MWh battery energy storage system (BESS). The project includes the installation of a microgrid control system, electrical interconnection switchgear, and modification to the existing electrical distribution system. The contract duration is 1,141 calendar days from Notice to Proceed. The project also includes site work, start-up commissioning, interconnection agreement, assessment & authorization, and all associated costs.
• The microgrid system will support energy resiliency by providing on-site energy generation.
• The project includes integration of existing large-scale onsite generation (4.65 MW from solar photovoltaic (PV) array and two 275 kW wind turbines).
• The project includes the installation of twelve 12,000-gallon above-ground, ballistic-resistant, diesel fuel tanks with a fuel polishing system.
• The contract is a Firm-Fixed-Price (FFP) contract with a size limitation of $45,000,000.00.
• The project is set-aside for Small Business (SB).
