Solar Battery Pilot
The procurement contact named on the official notice.
This sits in the upper-middle of the Petroleum, Fuel & Energy Products band — a substantial contract for the sector. Based on 3,437 valued Petroleum, Fuel & Energy Products tenders in our corpus.
The Solar Battery Storage Pilot will develop requirements, procure and deliver 6 to 8 containerised battery pods on school sites to manage and aggregate energy from PV and Smart Tariffs.
The supplier will also undertake market testing to validate supply chain capacity, cost realism and the technical feasibility of the battery pods.
During the project, the supplier will record lessons learned and iterate the initial specification provided by the Department.
Once the installation and monitoring of the pilot sites have concluded, the supplier will produce a final specification in keeping with the Department’s Specification 2025 (abbreviated as Spec25) and develop comprehensive implementation guidance for schools.
The supplier will report case studies throughout the project and prepare these for publication.
Finally, the supplier will develop a national feasibility assessment with a proposed implementation plan.
The Department is considering a call-off from Construction Professional Services 2 (RM6356) or an Open Procedure tender.
If we proceed with RM6356, the specific lot will be determined as the project develops.
