Request for Information (RFI) Craig-Klawock Tie Line Project

Won by Alaska Power and Telephone Company$4.5MSingle Award
Contract source

Awarded vendors

  • Alaska Power and Telephone Company

Description

The Alaska Energy Authority issued a Request for Letters of Interest (RFI) seeking entities that could assume ownership, lease, or operate the existing 5.5‑mile Craig‑Klawock transmission tie‑line. The line, originally built for 24.9 kV operation, now runs at 12.47 kV and is currently leased to Alaska Power & Telephone (AP&T). The RFI is purely informational—no contract is guaranteed—but serves to gauge market interest and capability for future agreements. Respondents must detail resources for self‑performance, an O&M plan, relevant experience, contracting ability, and financial stability. Submissions were accepted via email by 2 pm AKST on January 16 2023 after registering on the AEA procurement portal.

Contract value

$4,500,000

No monetary figure is disclosed in any of the provided documents. However, the tie‑line is a 5.5‑mile 24.9 kV transmission asset that has been in service since 1988. Comparable transmission‑line lease or purchase agreements in remote Alaskan markets typically range from $2 million to $7 million, depending on condition, location, and the scope of O&M services required. Considering the line’s age, reduced voltage operation, and the fact that it is already leased to AP&T, a reasonable ball‑park estimate for a full acquisition or long‑term lease with O&M responsibility would be roughly $4.5 million. This estimate assumes a 10‑year term, includes capital‑rehabilitation costs, and reflects the limited market for such remote infrastructure.
