Consultant/Owners Representative for Climate Pollution Reduction Grant Project: The City of Painesville, on behalf of its municipal Electric Department, is soliciting RFQ and proposals from agencies and organizations for the following project. With $129 million in funding from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and an expected $66 million from Federal Tax Credits, three municipal utilities--Cuyahoga County, the City of Cleveland, and the City of Painesville--have joined forces to install 63 MW of solar energy on brownfields and landfills across Northeast Ohio. Specifically, the project will result in the decommissioning of a coal fired peaking power plant in Painesville, by replacing it with up to 35- MW of solar and 10-20 MW of battery storage, as well as providing 28 MW of solar power in Cuyahoga County at various brownfield, landfill and publicly owned properties. The firm selected will serve as the City of Painesville Owner's Representative to oversee various tasks across solar development projects funded by the EPA's Climate Pollution Reduction Grant (CPRG). Although each site will have its own Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) team, the coalition aims to engage a consulting firm to coordinate parts of project execution and drive successful outcomes over the five-year grant period. This RFQ does not seek design, architectural, or construction services, which will be procured separately with assistance and oversight of the selected owner's representative. This RFQ includes an appendix with three example documents for respondents to review: the EPA award notice, a project budget narrative, and a work plan. Questions: Joe Price, Electric Superintendent, jprice@painesville.com, 440-392-5939. The method of Contractor Selection has not been Determined at this time.
