TVA desires to develop a system wide SO3 mitigation plan for application throughout the TVA system. This applies especially on coal fired units burning or planning to burn eastern U.S. coal in the 1.2-6.0 lb sulfur/MM-Btu range. TVA strongly prefers that the SO3 mitigation be accomplished after the flue gas exits the economizer (or SCR as appropriate) but before the gas enters the air heater. TVA is soliciting expressions of interest, including innovative financial arrangements and project delivery arrangements for the project(s). TVA desires to select firm(s) that have a history of successful experience with environmental systems as well as balance of plant systems. In addition, the firm must have a corporate philosophy consistent with the alliance concept and a genuine desire to enter into such an agreement. TVA will have certain mandatory minimum qualifications that Respondents must meet before consideration. Only those Respondents which certify to TVA that they can fully meet all of the mandatory minimum qualification requirements will be considered. Prospective offerors will be required to submit detailed supporting documentation (with their proposals) to substantiate meeting all mandatory minimum qualification requirements as stated below. Teaming and subcontracting relationships are encouraged, and these minimum qualification requirements may collectively be satisfied by combining the qualifications of team members and subcontractors committed to perform in the event of award.
