Life Extension for Deerhaven Unit 1 TransformersThe contract pertains to the life extension of transformers T-61 and T-62 at Deerhaven Unit 1, addressing severe degradation observed in both units. Both transformers exhibit advanced deterioration including worn-out radiators, extensive rust, cracked and bubbling paint, confirmed oil leaks, and non-OSHA compliant radiator fans. Wiring issues are causing frequent false alarms, and CT cables are inaccessible due to their routing behind the radiators, making complete replacement preferable during radiator removal. Transformer T-62 has a critical nitrogen leak and requires immediate replacement of its winding temperature gauge. T-61’s De-energized Tap Changer is damaged and must remain untouched. Additionally, multiple cables exiting the transformer cabinets contain asbestos, necessitating strict protocols to avoid disturbance. All work must be performed with full awareness of these hazards and with proper safeguards in place. The solicitation, numbered 2026-093, was posted on July 17, 2026, with a response deadline of August 17, 2026. It is issued by the Energy Supply organization under the state of Florida, with performance located in Gainesville. Primary contact is David Hollandsworth, Principal Engineer, reachable at 352-393-6244 or hollandsworthdw@gru.com, with Keith Harrison, Procurement Specialist III, as secondary contact at 352-393-1252 or harrisonkl@gru.com.
