Business certified HUBZone 8A WomanOwned Small Business or ServiceDisabled Veteran Owned Small Business and you are interested in this project please respond appropriately Project Location Conroe TX Project Description DesignBidBuild Construction project to provide energy resiliency by providing an onsite automated energy control generation storage management system Construct a microgrid system that will have full islanding capability The microgrid system will incorporate a new 750kW carport mounted photovoltaic PV solar array new 750kW750kWh battery energy storage system BESS and 2340kW natural gas backup generator system with loadbalancing controllers to reduce fuel use The microgrid system will include master microgrid controller and an automated distribution switch to disconnect the Army Reserve Center ARC from local electrical utility grid during grid outages Microgrid will be installed on a closed restricted network CRN requiring an Authority to Operate ATO IAW Department of Defense DoD policies System cybersecurity requirements will be designed IAW UFC 401006 Cybersecurity for Facility Related Control Systems or current DoD policy The microgrid system will support energy resiliency by providing onsite energy generation this includes solar panels mounts inverters transformers controls and communication ACDC wiring with conduit low voltage switchgear and security measures The PV array shall meet IEEE Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers Standard 1741SA 2018 IEEE 1547 for Interconnection as well as meet all federal state and local code requirements The PV system will be designed to utilize PV power onsite prior to feeding into the local grid The net metering and interconnection agreements will require approval by the utility provider Contract duration is estimated at 610 calendar days The estimated cost range is between 5000000 and 10000000 NAICS code is 237130 All interested Small Businesses certified HUBZONE 8A WomanOwned Small
