The objective of the Feasibility Study is to make a recommendation on a 25-100 megawatt (MW) gas-fired power plant, including the preferred size of the plant (taking into account the demand for electricity sales to the grid), type and source of gas and preliminary design. Using the preliminary design of the gas-fired power plant, the Feasibility Study will provide an economic analysis, a preliminary environmental impact study, financial reviews and tender documentation (using performance specifications) for the recommended solution. Finally, the Feasibility Study would perform a screening analysis and make a recommendation on a potential additional renewable power plant. The Feasibility Study results would be used by the Grantee to make investment decisions and obtain financing for the project. The U.S. firm selected will be paid in U.S. dollars from a $744,450 grant to the Grantee from the U.S. Trade and Development Agency (USTDA). A detailed Request for Proposals (RFP), which includes requirements for the Proposal, the Terms of Reference, and portions of a background definitional mission report are available from USTDA, at 1000 Wilson Boulevard, Suite 1600, Arlington, VA 22209-3901.

In the fax, please include your firm's name, contact person, address, and telephone number. Some firms have found that RFP materials sent by U.S. mail do not reach them in time for preparation of an adequate response. Firms that want USTDA to use an overnight delivery service should include the name of the delivery service and your firm's account number in the request for the RFP. Firms that want to send a courier to USTDA to retrieve the RFP should allow one hour after faxing the request to USTDA before scheduling a pick-up. Please note that no telephone requests for the RFP will be honored. Please check your internal fax verification receipt. Because of the large number of RFP requests, USTDA cannot respond to requests for fax verification. Requests for RFPs received before 4:00 PM will be mailed the same day. Requests received after 4:00 PM will be mailed the following day. Please check with your courier and/or mail room before calling USTDA. Only U.S. firms and individuals may bid on this USTDA financed activity. Interested firms, their subcontractors and employees of all participants must qualify under USTDA's nationality requirements as of the due date for submission of qualifications and proposals and, if selected to carry out the USTDA-financed activity, must continue to meet such requirements throughout the duration of the USTDA-financed activity. All goods and services to be provided by the selected firm shall have their nationality, source and origin in the U.S. or host country. The U.S. firm may use subcontractors from the host country for up to 20 percent of the USTDA grant amount. Details of USTDA's nationality requirements and mandatory contract clauses are also included in the RFP. Interested U.S. firms should submit their Proposal in English and Russian directly to the Grantee by 4:00 PM, September 30, 2014 local time at the above address. Evaluation criteria for the Proposal are included in the RFP. Price will not be a factor in contractor selection, and therefore, cost proposals should NOT be submitted. The Grantee reserves the right to reject any and/or all Proposals. The Grantee also reserves the right to contract with the selected firm for subsequent work related to the project. The Grantee is not bound to pay for any costs associated with the preparation and submission of Proposals.

The answer is that the Grantee is not willing to consider a power plant that also produces heating energy, only a power plant that produces solely electric power, for the purposes of this feasibility study. USTDA is making this information available for the benefit of all prospective bidders. The response date for this RFP remains 4:00 PM local time on September 30, 2014.
