| Abstract: | The primary scope of work is composed of the design, installation, inspection, and interconnection of ten grid-tied, solar photovoltaic (PV) systems, totaling approximately 58 kW rated capacity, on existing income qualified single-family homes located on the Rosebud Sioux Reservation. The project will provide approximately 40% savings in displaced electricity and tenants will be educated on energy efficiency and renewable energy. Tribal job trainees and community volunteers will assist with the installations, gaining valuable hands-on experience. The period of performance includes energy savings verification of the annual electricity offset for each installed system.In an effort to establish a long term thriving solar PV industry on the Rosebud Sioux Tribe seeks to partner with a Vendor to install approximately ten solar PV clean energy systems on homes. The Project has the following measurable objectives: install ten grid-tied, residential solar PV systems for income qualified families living on the Rosebud Reservation thereby offsetting approximately 39% of total kBtu in electricity usage. The systems will generate approximately $221,300 worth of power for low-income families over the lifespans, while eliminating an estimated 2,020 tons of greenhouse gas emissions. Carrying out these installations will also provide hands-on solar installation training to approximately 15 Tribal trainees from the Housing Authority, Sinte Gleska University and interested community members. |
