Both agencies took the input gathered from the RFI and the industry forum to shape each agency’s procurement strategies and solicitations. As such, GSA and DoD are publishing two separate solicitations seeking contractors who could provide CFE for federal civilian and defense agencies located in the PJM/RTO market area. Both solicitations support the CFE goals expressed in Section 203 of Executive Order (EO) 14057, Catalyzing Clean Energy Industries and Jobs Through Federal Sustainability (December 8, 2021). This order sets a goal for the Federal Government to source 100 percent CFE by 2030, including 50 percent hourly matching (24/7 CFE). This solicitation is for the supply of retail electricity, to include CFE, and any ancillary services to be delivered to various Federal and non-Federal agencies located in the PJM/RTO market area. GSA is soliciting offers for a 10-year delivery period beginning with the meter read dates specified on Exhibit 1 of the solicitation. The GSA solicitation includes accounts located in all or parts of Delaware, Illinois, Maryland, New Jersey, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. The total estimated annual quantity is 1.1 million MWh’s. The contract(s) awarded will be Firm-Fixed-Price, Requirements Type. The solicitation is issued as a Request for Proposals. Additional requirements may be added by amendment. CFE is defined by EO 14057 to mean electrical energy produced from resources that generate no carbon emissions, including marine energy, solar, wind, hydrokinetic (including tidal, wave, current, and thermal), geothermal, hydroelectric, nuclear, renewably sourced hydrogen, and electrical energy generation from fossil resources to the extent there is active capture and storage of carbon dioxide emissions that meets EPA requirements. The EO 14057 Implementing Instructions further state that for CFE to count toward the government-wide goals established by EO 14057, the generation must i) produce CFE; ii) be placed in service on or after October 1, 2021, either as a new resource or as new capacity at an existing resource modified to increase output; and iii) deliver CFE to the same grid region of Federal facility consumption. Additional information regarding GSA’s support of EO 14057 CFE goals can be found at: https://www.gsa.gov/real-estate/facilities-management/utility-services/carbon-pollutionfree-electricity All potential offerors are highly encouraged to submit any questions or comments to bonnie.bueter@gsa.gov as early as possible, but prior to the deadline for questions and answers in the solicitation.
