Washington Park Public RFP Summary

This is a Request for Proposals issued by the City of Pasadena through Pasadena Water and Power for Design-Build services related to solar and energy storage installations at Category 1 city-owned properties. The project scope encompasses site evaluation and feasibility assessment, engineering and design, permitting, procurement of equipment and materials, construction, installation, interconnection, commissioning, stakeholder engagement support, and ongoing operations and maintenance services. The Design-Build Contractor must evaluate existing electrical infrastructure and account for future electric vehicle charging expansion as part of site evaluation and design approach, including load assumptions that may affect equipment sizing and system components. Solar installations are desired at all sites, while energy storage is highly desired where feasible based on site-specific conditions, technical constraints, cost, and City direction. The final system size, configuration, and inclusion of energy storage will be determined through site-specific evaluation, design development, feasibility analysis, and City direction. Project completion is targeted by June 2028 for the identified Category 1 priority sites intended to support near-term implementation. The City reserves the right to award one contract, multiple contracts by individual site, by combination of sites, or in whole, as determined in the City's best interest.
