- Description
- Photovoltaic and Battery Installation Project, U.S. Consulate Cape Town, South Africa The Regional Procurement Support Office in Frankfurt, Germany, intends to issue a Firm Fixed-Price Construction type contract during the third quarter of calendar year 2024. The successful contractor shall provide complete DESIGN-BUILD construction services, contract coordination, and supervision, including but not limited to the management and construction necessary to meet the requirements of the contract within the established timeframe. South Africa does not have the ability to provide enough power to meet the demands of their customers. As a result, a country-wide load shedding program has been instituted with rolling scheduled blackouts. These blackouts require the consulate to run on diesel generators most of the time at a very high fuel cost. This project has three components intended to eliminate the need for on-site diesel generator use: Reduce energy use by upgrading the site lighting to more energy efficient LED lighting. Provide on-site canopy-mounted and ground-mounted solar photovoltaic power system and associated parking spaces, drive aisles, and site landscape and drainage improvements, and Provide a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS). In addition to those efforts aimed at eliminating diesel energy use, the project will provide EV charging stations for official vehicles. The magnitude of this project is anticipated to be more than $10,000,000 U.S. Dollars for the entire project.
