Chapter 267-24 - GEORGIA SOLAR ENERGY AWARENESS PROJECT CONTRACT FOR PROJECT MANAGEMENT REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL
Rule 267-24-.04 - The General Scope and Purpose of the Project

Universal Citation: GA Rules and Regs r 267-24-.04

Current through Rules and Regulations filed through March 20, 2024

A crucial part of the Authority's Mission is to provide financing and other support services for energy programs. To this end, the Authority sees twofold value in a high-profile, solar energy project. First, direct benefits are derived from the application of solar energy to uses that would otherwise require the burning of fossil fuels (i.e. electricity generation). This PROJECT will eliminate the need to burn fossil fuels to produce an equivalent amount of electricity, and therefore directly benefit Georgia's natural environment and citizens' health. Furthermore, a large and plainly visible photovoltaic solar array will increase public awareness of the technology. The PROJECT itself will serve as a promotion of renewable energy technology and evidence of its feasibility.

The PROJECT will require the cooperation of representatives from State & Local Government, as well as private sector representatives. Potential contractors interested in the PROJECT must comply with the requirements described below. The selection process consists of three phases. Phase I is the response, or Proposal, from applicants according to the requirements of this FOGA. Applicants' Proposals must include a cover letter explaining their availability and interest, and must provide information addressing Sections l and 2. Phase II is the evaluations of the Proposals. Phase III consists of interviews with the top finalists, if deemed necessary.

QUALIFICATIONS

For the PROJECT, describe the applicant's qualifications in the areas of:

Section 1 Criteria
