    The purpose of this questionnaire is to identify suitably qualified service providers working within the energy sector who can meet our requirements and, depending on the number of suitably qualified providers, to draw up a short-list of candidates to be invited to tender for the above contract. It is emphasised that the information requested in this questionnaire is aimed solely at determining the suitability and choice of candidates for entry to the Tendering Stages. MEDITE SMARTPLY requirement is to select one or more suitably qualified service providers working within the energy sector with the view to include them in a tender process. The primary purpose is to form a strategic energy partnership to assist in the decarbonisation of their energy consumption through Innovative energy solutions using on-site energy services. These services will include but not limited to: 1. Strategic Energy Planning (tailored roadmap for the decarbonisation) 2. On-Site Energy Management Assistance 3. Feasibility of On-Site Renewable Energy 4. Team Development + Energy Awareness 5. ISO 50001 Energy Management System (EnMS) Support 6. Review of MS’s use of Analytical Energy Monitoring Services 7. Support MS to achieve biomass Boiler efficiency 8. Support and identify Energy Performance Contract (EPC) Projects 9. Liaise and support with Energy Efficiency Obligation Scheme (EEOS) Energy providers MEDITE operates two production lines at its site in Clonmel with a total production capacity of well over 400,000 m3 p.a. The energy demand of the process is currently met by multiple energy sources. Electricity is imported from the grid while heat is produced by two biomass plants (Line 1 steam boilers and Line 2 Energy Centre) as well as a gas-fired thermal oil boiler. MEDITE’s energy management system has been ISO 50001 accredited since 2017. SMARTPLY recently upgraded its press technology from a multi-daylight press to a continuous press to increase the total production capacity of the plant to well over 300,000 m3 p.a. The energy demand of the process is currently met by an energy plant which feeds heat directly into a single drum dryer. Production is run 24 hours a day with the line only brought down for maintenance once a month. SMARTPLY’s energy management system has been ISO 50001 accredited since 2023. MEDITE SMARTPLY have a long-held commitment to reducing the carbon footprint of their manufacturing processes and have achieved a significant reduction since 2010. The Energy Conservation Measures carried out over this period include LED Lighting Upgrades with smart controls, fan system optimisations, compressed air system optimisations and multiple process and thermal system optimisations. Medite SmartPly’s energy programme has delivered significant energy reduction in both plants to date; this has reduced the cost of production of MDF and OSB in the plants allowing the company to be more competitive in the respective markets Medite Smartply requires provision of services of an Energy Services Company to assist with the development of the next step in their energy journey and to provide their expertise in the decarbonisation of their energy consumption through innovative energy solutions. The energy partnership will be focused on the reduction of both plants’ current energy consumption through the implementation of energy conservation measures and on-site renewable energy generation opportunities.

      GWM-6797 - Solar PV EPC qualification system

      ESB is seeking expressions of interest to obtain a place on a qualification system that will be established for EPC companies to: — design, — procure, — supply, — install, — commission and — maintain all elements of ground-mounted solar farms. The projects will be located in Ireland and the UK, and the qualification system may include projects developed by ESB, ESB joint venture companies (existing or yet to be formed), ESB subsidiary companies or companies ESB Group has a minority interest in. Applicants must be able to provide the full scope of services of a solar EPC contractor, including all associated construction, balance of plant and grid connection works. ESB plans to develop ground-mounted solar farms commencing in 2019, through a pipeline of planned projects. The size of individual projects is expected to range between 4 MW and 100 MW, although some projects could be outside of this range. Applicants should note that the detailed scope and contracting strategy for each project will be determined in any subsequent procurement competition (which may include a further pre-qualification process before the tender phase) and may include some or all of the scope items identified above. In the nearer term, the contracting entity is pursuing in excess of 200 MW of ground-mounted solar sites with a view to delivery utilising the qualification system. While the total number of projects and MW to be delivered under the qualification system throughout its existence cannot be determined at this time, the total number of MWs could substantially exceed 200 MW. Further detail will be available at a later date, once the qualification system is established. Please note this is the same Qualification system established under OJEU notice 2018/S 213-489106, this new notice is being issued because the system duration is indefinite and to allow new applicants to apply. There is no need to apply again if you have submitted an interest previously for this Qualification system via eTenders ref 141709.
