ERCIP Lake City Army Ammunition Plant Microgrid and Backup Power

The US Army Corps of Engineers is conducting a market survey to determine if there are a reasonable number of interested small business concerns to set aside a future project for them. The project involves the design-bid-build construction of a microgrid system powered by two 7.5 MW combined heat and power (CHP) combustion turbines with dual-fuel capable natural gas and propane fuel systems. The project will include all electrical distribution equipment and underground duct bank needed to connect to the existing electrical infrastructure. The microgrid controls will be installed to manage various modes of operation, including parallel mode with the existing utility, island mode, and black start mode. • The project will involve installing all piping and equipment needed to connect the CHP to the installation's existing natural gas, steam, condensate, and water infrastructure. • The microgrid will have industrial-grade controls with a new control room located in the central heating plant. • Environmental controls will be through the use of low NOx turbines and duct burners. • The project also includes site improvements, demolition, full air permitting, communications, and full commissioning. • All systems will be designed in accordance with UFC 4-010-06, Cyber Security of Facility-Related Control Systems, and UFGS 25 05 11, Cybersecurity for Facility-Related Control Systems. • The use of Software Defined Networking (SDN) capable industrial-grade equipment throughout the control system will provide a deny-by-default security posture and fulfill most, if not all, network-related security controls.
