Renovation of a playground / park / athletic field in Fishermans Harbour, Nova Scotia. Completed plans call for the renovation of a playground / park / athletic field.

This is a two-stage selection process. Bidders responding to this selection process are requested to submit a bid in two stages. This posting is the first stage (Stage One) of a two-stage solicitation process: the first stage will evaluate the qualifications of all interested suppliers; the second stage (Stage Two) will invite the qualified suppliers to provide a financial bid on the project based on the specifications and drawings. Upon award of contract in Stage Two the pre-qualification list will expire and will not be used in any other solicitation. The qualification list will expire within 180 days or upon award of a contract in Stage Two, whichever is earlier, and the prequalification list will not be used in any other solicitation. Parks Canada requires the furnishing of all labour, materials and equipment required to construct a new green micro-grid power generation system at Sable Island National Park Reserve (SINPR) to generate electricity. The system combines zero-carbon sources (21.8 kW Solar PV) with more efficient, lower carbon, generation technology (2 x 45 kW variable speed gensets) in an advanced micro-grid with a battery energy storage system (190 kWh capacity). The project goal is to reduce GHG emissions by 50% from current levels. This is conjunction with energy efficient building retrofits (heat pumps and lighting controls) to reduce the electrical demand. Sable Island National Park Reserve is located offshore in the Atlantic Ocean, 190 km from the nearest landfall in Nova Scotia. Due to its remoteness, the island's operations depend on transportation of all people and cargo to the island by either air or sea and the construction period is constrained by the sealift schedule and bird nesting. The following is a highlight of some of the scope: 1. Removal of two existing fixed speed diesel electric generators from the Garage Building. 2. Installation of two new parallel capable, variable speed, diesel electric generators c/w heat recovery system in the Garage Building. 3. Installation of a new DC coupled solar photovoltaic array and containerized energy storage system. 4. Installation of a new microgrid controller to manage the output of the energy storage system and two new generators to meet the electrical demand of the island. 5. Installation of occupancy sensor-based lighting controls in the Garage, Carpentry Workshop, Food Stores, and Water Treatment Buildings. 6. Installation of new heating systems in the Garage, Carpentry Workshop, and Food Stores Buildings. 7. Replacement of electrical distribution equipment throughout Main Station at SINPR Work is to be completed by November 30, 2025. This project is estimated at a value between $1,000,001 > $5,000,000, Taxes extra. Documents can be obtained at: https://canadabuys.canada.ca/en/tender-opportunities
