Description
The University System of Maryland is seeking proposals for the installation of agrivoltaic solar research systems at two research centers. The systems should be designed to support crop-based agrivoltaic research and should include all necessary equipment and work for interconnection. The proposals should include a technical and financial volume, and should address the requirements outlined in the solicitation. Some key points to consider include:
• The systems should be designed to support research comparability and should align with common utility-scale practice in the region
• The systems should be able to accommodate replicated block layouts and research treatments
• The systems should include required safety signage and any fencing or signage necessary for safe operation
• The proposals should include a clear justification for any proposed technology, including market availability and supportability, ability to meet research requirements, and O&M/warranty approach
