Solicitation # CUP No. 1128-23

VESI 27, LLC is carrying out a project to redevelop a 3-acre site located at 18800 Broadway Avenue in Carson, California, to establish a 100-megawatt Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) facility. The project involves the installation of lithium-ion batteries within modular outdoor enclosures and the construction of a 66-kilovolt underground generation transmission line to connect the facility to the SCE Nola Substation. This infrastructure will allow the system to receive energy from the SCE transmission system, store it, and deliver it back to the substation during periods of increased demand. The facility is designed to operate 24 hours a day, 365 days per year. The City of Carson serves as the approving agency for the project, which is identified under solicitation number CUP No. 1128-23. The project has been granted a categorical exemption under CEQA Guidelines Section 15332 for Infill Development, as it is consistent with local general plan designations and zoning regulations, located in an urban area, and presents no significant environmental effects.

Full Description

BACKGROUND

Facilities & Site Services (F&SS) at Idaho National Laboratory is planning to host an Industry Discovery Forum to engage with industry partners and provide early visibility into upcoming F&SS projects. This event aligns with INL’s ongoing commitment to collaborating with qualified vendors, strengthening competition, and expanding awareness of future opportunities. During this onsite forum, vendors will receive presentations covering anticipated scope needs, project timelines, and general requirements for upcoming electrical Transmission and Distribution (T&D) infrastructure improvement projects managed by F&SS. The purpose of this EOI is to gauge interest and develop a list of vendors who would like to attend the INL Industry Discovery Forum. F&SS intends to use a design-build project execution strategy and is seeking participation from experienced T&D engineering firms and constructor teams. INL’s desert site is powered by a DOE-owned 138 kV transmission system that steps down to distribution voltages across multiple complexes. The system has been in service for more than 75 years, and as INL’s mission grows, significant reliability and infrastructure projects are required to strengthen the system for future load demands.

PURPOSE OF THIS EOI

The purpose of this Expression of Interest is to identify vendors interested in attending the Industry Discovery Forum. The event will include:

Presentations on the T&D Infrastructure Program from F&SS INL power management and subject matter experts
High-level overviews of anticipated FY26-FY31 project work
Opportunities for vendors to ask questions and understand capabilities needed for future work
An overview of applicable INL site requirements, including access, safety expectations, and (as appropriate) Davis-Bacon and SSA applicability
Focused discussions related to T&D needs and associated support service

EVENT DETAILS **Limited space available – attendance is by invite only**

The forum will include a half-day of presentations and breakout meetings, to be held at the INL complex in Idaho Falls in mid-June 2026
