Description
North Ayrshire Council (NAC) requires a servicing and maintenance contract for solar photovoltaic installations throughout the non-domestic estate and provision of a remote monitoring system for generation meters. Initial maintenance/servicing visits are to be carried out by Summer 2022 with subsequent servicing visits scheduled annually. This should maintain efficiency and compliance with safety guidance, reduce the operating costs for each site, while ensuring maximum benefit is achieved through the Feed in Tariff programme. The contract will be split into 2 Lots as follows: Lot 1 - Servicing & Maintenance of Solar PV Systems Lot 2 – Provision of Solar PV Monitoring System Bidders may submit tenders for either one or both lots. Bidders applying for Lot 1 must be Microgeneration Certification Scheme (MCS) Certified. The contract duration will be for 3 years with an option to extend up to 24 months. Contract start is anticipated to commence May/June 2022.
Lot Division
| 1 | Servicing & Maintenance of Solar PV Systems Annual servicing and maintenance of all NAC’s non-domestic solar PV installations (31 nos). Annual servicing and maintenance should maximise the lifespan and safe operation of the solar PV installation, resulting in reduced building operating costs and ensuring the Council continues to benefit from the Feed in Tariff (FIT) scheme. Safety issues should also be identified to reduce risk of injury, fire, damage to equipment or the building fabric. Reactive maintenance is also required, with faults discovered at either the annual servicing visit, or by Council staff throughout the year. Award Criteria
| ||||
| 2 | Provision of Solar PV Monitoring System Remote monitoring of 31 x Solar PV meters is required. The council requires the solar PV meter readings across all installations to be remotely monitored and data collected on a secure platform. This will allow council officers the ability to review generation trends more easily, submit readings to utility providers and to assist in identifying faults to limit the downtime of the system. Remote meter monitoring for 27 x Solar PV installations was previously carried out through Logic Energy Ltd. Bidders can reinstate the Logic Energy system, as well as add the 4 additional sites to the Logic system or install a new logger and monitoring facility across all sites, ensuring the continual FIT/RHI eligibility. Transmitted data must be accessible on secure platform for nominated council officers to analyse and download. Award Criteria
