Description
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Louisville District intends to issue a Request for Proposal (RFP) W912QR25RA016 for the construction of a Microgrid system at the Conroe Army Reserve Center (ARC), in Conroe, Tx.
This is a Design-Bid-Build Construction project to provide energy resiliency by providing an on-site, automated energy control / generation storage management system: Construct a microgrid system, including a smart grid control system, that will have full islanding capability. The microgrid system will incorporate a new 388kW carport mounted photovoltaic (PV) solar array and 1-340kW natural gas backup generator system, with load-balancing controllers to reduce fuel use. The microgrid system will include master microgrid controller, and an automated distribution switch to disconnect the Army Reserve Center (ARC) from local electrical utility grid during grid outages. Microgrid will be installed on a closed restricted network (CRN) requiring an Authority to Operate (ATO) IAW Department of Defense (DoD) policies. System cybersecurity requirements IAW UFC 4-010-06 “Cybersecurity for Facility Related Control Systems” are included in the specifications. The microgrid system will support energy resiliency by providing on-site energy generation, this includes the installation of natural gas (NG) generators, PV system, microgrid control system, electrical interconnection switchgear, interconnection circuit wirings, and modification to the existing electrical distribution system as necessary to establish the Conroe ARC microgrid network. The PV array shall meet IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers) Standard 1741-SA, 2018 IEEE 1547 for Interconnection, as well as meet all federal, state, and local code requirements. The PV system will be designed to utilize PV power on-site prior to feeding into the local grid. The net metering and interconnection agreements will require approval by the utility provider, Entergy Texas.
