Attachment 1 – Technical Specifications 4/15/2024

SOLICITATION- PROJECT OVERVIEW & TECHNICAL ACCEPTABILITY REQUIREMENTS

1. Background and history:

15 gallons of deoxygenated pyrolysis oil is needed for engine tests as part of a multi-laboratory consortium Advancing the Development of Biofuels for the Maritime Sector.

2. Procurement need summary:

NREL does not have the capabilities to produce deoxygenated stabilized pyrolysis oil in the quantity required for engine testing (15 gallons). It would take at least 3 years in our bench-scale unit. For stabilized pyrolysis oil, we seek a vendor that has the know-how to produce it in the required scale.

3. Timeline:

Delivery is required NLT July 31, 2024, provide delivery lead time ARO.

4. Mandatory Qualifications

To be considered a ‘responsive offeror’ the following minimum criteria must be met.

These criteria are not evaluated but are instead ‘pass/fail’ criteria. NREL reserves the right to ask clarifying questions of the offerors as necessary in determining responsiveness to this RFP. Offerors’ proposals that do not meet the mandatory qualifications will not be evaluated or considered further for award under this solicitation.
