Canadian utility SaskPower has launched the Request for Proposal (RFP) for the development of a 10-megawatt (MW) solar project located in Regina-Moose Mountain, Saskatchewan province, Canada.
The Request for Qualification (RFQ) phase saw 22 applications from 13 proponents pre-qualified to submit proposals during the RFP phase.
SaskPower did not select a site for the project. Proponents were required to identify a site location for each application submitted into the RFQ, and each site identified went through an environmental pre-screening.
The RFP opens April 23, and proponents will have until mid-October 2019 to submit proposals into the RFP for evaluation. SaskPower will then review and evaluate all proposals equally through an open, fair and transparent process. Announcement of the successful proponent is expected in early 2020, and the project is expected to be in service as early as December 2021.
