About this opportunity

Written by GovTribe AI ·

Orange County, Florida is soliciting sealed electronic responses for a Floating Photovoltaic System for the Utilities Administration Building (UAB), identified by project number Y24-09-SS. The procurement targets a comprehensive solar panel system to be installed on-site at the county's pond, specifically seeking a floating solar solution using Ciel & Terre's Hydrelio Technology distributed by D3Energy. Vendors must provide PV modules from the most recent Bloomberg Tier 1 Solar Panel list, IEEE and UL compliant inverters, and a floating system engineered to withstand challenging environmental conditions including water velocities up to 2.3 mph, waves up to 3.3 ft, temperatures to 122F, and wind velocities of 130 mph. Respondents are required to have successfully implemented floating PV systems of at least 500 kilowatts within the past 5 years, with documented experience in Florida. The system must have a minimum 25-year lifespan with a 10-year comprehensive warranty covering all components, including the anchoring system. Electronic submissions will be accepted through the OpenGov e-Procurement Platform until 4:00 pm EST on Monday, July 15, 2024, with strict requirements for file formatting and submission protocols.

The solicitation does not explicitly indicate specific set-aside designations or restrictions for disadvantaged enterprises. Vendors must create a free account on the OpenGov Platform and submit all documents in standard file formats, ensuring uploaded files are uncorrupted, readable, and printable. The project requires vendors to obtain all necessary permits and coordinate with Duke Power for system testing and interconnection. While a specific budget range is not disclosed, the comprehensive technical requirements suggest a significant capital investment for a sophisticated floating solar installation. Warranty specifications include a 25-year linear 80% power warranty for PV panels and a 5-year warranty for inverters. The procurement will be managed by the Procurement Division, with Tracy Attenasio serving as the point of contact, and questions must be submitted via email to tracy.attenasio@ocfl.net. Any modifications or clarifications will be issued through written addenda that become part of the contract documents.
