About this opportunity
The New York Power Authority is issuing an RFI Q26-7795KM on sheep grazing services for the Somers Solar project in the Town of Fort Edward, New York, with responses due July 24, 2026. This is a non-binding market-intelligence vehicle designed to gather current industry practices for grazing sheep on solar sites and to identify interested graziers for potential future subcontractor roles under operations and maintenance RFPs.
NYPA is not seeking a direct contract award through this RFI. Instead, the Authority invites sheep grazing service providers and sheep farmers to submit company information and feedback on grazing practices, then register interest on NYPA's procurement website to flag availability as sub-suppliers to prime contractors competing for future O&M RFPs that incorporate solar grazing services at the Somers location. Registration on the portal signals interest without obligating NYPA to issue a follow-on opportunity or award a contract to any respondent.
Responses should be submitted by email to Agrivoltaics@nypa.gov or through NYPA's website at www.NYPA.GOV/Procurement, where additional details and registration instructions are available. This RFI establishes a market-intelligence baseline and a vendor pipeline; actual procurement of grazing services will flow through future RFPs directed to prime contractors responsible for solar operations and maintenance.
