The County of San Luis Obispo Air Pollution Control District is soliciting proposals for the turnkey design, engineering, permitting, and installation of a grid-connected photovoltaic solar energy system at its headquarters. The system will be installed on a newly constructed membrane roof of approximately 8,184 square feet, with roughly 5,100 square feet available for equipment, subject to specific exclusion zones. Contractors must provide alternative sizing options to offset either 50 percent of anticipated future electrical consumption, estimated at 36,500 kWh annually, or 100 percent, estimated at 73,000 kWh annually. The design should support additional EV charging stations and may include optional battery backup solutions, with a recommended system size of 44 to 50 kW to meet total projected demand.
The solicitation, identified as RFP 720SOLAR, requires proposals to be submitted by August 27, 2026. The project scope involves coordinating with existing roof conditions, including the removal of old PV arrays and skylights while maintaining specific HVAC and monitoring equipment. Technical documentation provided includes structural calculations for roof anchorage, historical PG&E energy usage data, and solar production records. The procurement process includes formal protest procedures and requires adherence to specific submission guidelines via the Public Purchase website.
