Written by GovTribe AI ·

This is a specification template for documenting existing microgrid systems as part of the Community Microgrid Assistance Partnership (C-MAP) 2026 solicitation (RFX-2026-10006). Applicants must complete this attachment for each existing microgrid included in their proposal, providing comprehensive technical and operational data to support their application for DOE funding.

The template requires detailed information organized into several categories: community demographics and utility information (population, consumer count, loads, electricity costs, and reliability metrics); current generation system components (solar, wind, biomass, hydro, and generator sets with installation dates, specifications, and output capacity); electrical energy storage systems (manufacturer, technology type, output, and capacity); inverter specifications; fuel storage details (volume, annual use, supply method, and delivery frequency); and control systems documentation (SCADA or equivalent power system controls). Additionally, applicants must provide descriptions of the distribution system infrastructure (age, length, voltage, feeders, protection devices, grounding, and condition), any energy management systems, and other relevant energy system information. This specification template enables the government to standardize the collection of baseline microgrid data from rural and remote communities seeking funding to develop, implement, or improve advanced microgrid systems that enhance affordability, reliability, and security of electricity delivery.
