6 FAQs about [Microgrid project bidding]

What is a microgrid & how does it work?

A microgrid is a smaller version of the electric power grid that serves a defined area like a neighborhood or a remote area. Microgrids typically utilize multiple distributed energy sources such as solar, energy storage batteries, gas or diesel generators or even the grid.

Are microgrids a good investment?

Microgrids that incorporate renewable energy resources can have environmental benefits in terms of reduced greenhouse gas emissions and air pollutants. In some cases, microgrids can sell power back to the grid during normal operations. Depending on the complexity, microgrids can have high upfront capital costs.

When is the final bid deadline for a microgrid project?

Final bids are due Dec. 27, and it is expected that the winners will be announced in mid-March 2024. Additional information on the invitation to bid, including eligibility requirements, is available on the Philippine DOE website. Track news about microgrid projects around the world.

How should a microgrid design be defined before awarding a contract?

Define the microgrid design before awarding the contract. If the microgrid project is implemented using a phased approach, ensure the overall design and concept is well defined before the first contract is awarded. Decisions made early in the process will impact the effectiveness of the microgrid system.

How much does a microgrid cost?

Microgrids are complex systems that require specialized skills to operate and maintain. Microgrids include controls and communication systems that contain cybersecurity risks. A 2018 study conducted by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory found that microgrids in the Continental U.S. cost an average of $2 million-$5 million per megawatt.

How can a microgrid eficiency upgrade benefit a project?

A comprehensive project that leverages energy and water eficiency upgrades can result in avoided costs and reduced site loads, improving resilience and project payback. If microgrid controls and integration cannot be financed from cost savings, appropriations can be combined with financing to cover these costs.
