Connecticut Green Bank Seeks Proposals to Construct Solar Projects at Affordable Multifamily Housing Sites
HARTFORD, Conn. (Dec. 2, 2024) – The Green Bank recently released a Request for Proposals (RFP) seeking qualified contractors or entities to provide engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) services for solar photovoltaic (PV) projects at Affordable Multifamily Housing (AMFH) sites. Through this RFP, the Green Bank seeks to procure EPC services to install 2 megawatts (MW) of solar on nine AMFH sites in Connecticut working with the Green Bank’s Solar Marketplace Assistance Program (Solar MAP).
The Green Bank is working with AMFH site owners through Solar MAP to facilitate solar PV deployment at nine sites located in Cheshire, Hamden, Storrs, Tolland, New Haven, and West Hartford to install seven rooftop and two hybrid carport projects for a total portfolio of 2 MWdc. The Green Bank commissioned evaluations of each Site and provides detailed exhibits for each proposed project through this Request.
This solicitation also requests secondary project pricing that incorporates the requirements associated with the use of federal Greenhouse Gas Reduction Funds (GGRF), such as the Build America, Buy America Act and Davis-Bacon and Related Acts. Federal compliance requirements are further explained in the solicitation. This secondary pricing is optional, but Green Bank strongly encourages submissions as this is a priority funding area.
The solicitation offers site visits on Dec. 9 and 10th and an informational webinar on federal compliance requirements on Dec. 13 for federal compliance requirements. Submissions are due on Jan. 13, 2025.
