ComAp Microgrid Controller Programming & Commissioning

The contract entails the configuration, logic programming, SCADA integration, and remote commissioning of the ComAp microgrid controller platform to enable grid-forming and islanding operations. This work is critical for ensuring the microgrid can independently operate during grid outages while maintaining stable voltage and frequency without external grid support. The scope involves custom programming of control logic to manage energy sources, storage systems, and loads in accordance with operational requirements, alongside seamless integration with existing SCADA systems for real-time monitoring and control. Remote commissioning is specified to reduce on-site presence, leveraging secure communication protocols to verify system performance and validate operational parameters from a distance. The contract is designated as a subcontract under NAICS code 541330, indicating it falls within the professional, scientific, and technical services category, specifically engineering services. It is issued by the National Research Council of Canada on behalf of the Government of Canada, with the place of performance located in British Columbia. The solicitation was posted on June 4, 2026, and responses are due by June 19, 2026, providing potential contractors approximately two weeks to submit proposals. There is no set-aside designation, meaning all eligible vendors may compete without restrictions based on business size or demographic criteria. The work requires specialized expertise in microgrid control systems, communication protocols, and remote deployment methodologies to meet the technical and operational demands of the Canadian federal government's energy resilience initiatives.
