SOLICITATION REQUIREMENTS - TEMPORARY POWER SERVICES
1 Scope of Work
Guam Power Authority seeks the services of a firm for the supply of temporary electric
power service to GPA’s grid for a firm capacity of approximately 40 MW under a lease
agreement including operations and maintenance. The base lease term is two (2) years with an
option to extend annually for three (3) additional one (1)-year terms upon mutual agreement
between the parties.
The scope of work includes, but is not limited to, the following (the “Work” or “Works”):
Design all Temporary Power Facility
Construct, supply, and install all Temporary Power Facility
Procure and transport all required equipment and material
Obtain required approvals, permits, and fire protection from Authorities to install and
operate the Temporary Power Facility

SOLICITATION REQUIREMENTS - TEMPORARY POWER SERVICES
Temporary Power Facility includes all electrical equipment including, but not limited to,
generators, cabling, transformers, distribution equipment (such as switchgear, switchboards,
panel boards and transfer switches), safety devices (such as circuit breakers, ground fault
interrupters, switches, disconnects, grounding, bonding and surge protection), control devices,
and all associated equipment and components.
The Temporary Power Facility shall supply power to GPA on a power purchase
agreement basis. GPA may negotiate a purchase of the Temporary Power Facility at the end of
the contract period with the mutual consent of the parties.
2 Energy Conversion
GPA will be responsible for supplying ultra-low sulfur diesel (ULSD) fuel for this project
according to the fuel specifications provided in Appendix A. PROPONENTS shall exclude the
cost of fuel in their proposals. Summaries of GPA ULSD tank storage to guide PROPONENTS is
provided in Appendix B.
3 General Deliverables
The set of General Deliverables includes but may not be limited to:
Provide approximately 40 MW (net) of temporary power generation for two (2) years
with an option to extend annually for three (3) additional one (1)-year terms upon
mutual agreement between the parties
Full compliance with US EPA Region IX emission requirements; inclusion of all
required environmental controls depending on technology and US EPA emissions
requirements
GPA grid interconnection at 115 kV or 34.5 kV@ 60 Hz
Possible siting at Piti adjacent to the GPA Bulk Storage Facility. Please refer to
Appendix C for site drawings and information for the aforementioned potential site.
The locations shown for the utilities are an approximation and the PROPONENT
must field verify actual utility locations. If permit acquisition for the Piti site near the

GPA Bulk Storage Facility risks a delay to the Commercial Operation Date (COD),
GPA will consider alternative sites proposed by the PROPONENT, subject to Guam
EPA and US EPA approval. Detailed plans for these alternative sites are required
from the PROPONENT.
System Protection Package including relay protection and other auxiliary protection
devices that will be housed with the generator.
Remote fast start capability.
The Commercial Operation Date (COD) will be 100 calender days or sooner from
notice to proceed. Proposals that are unable to meet this requirement will be
disqualified.
At COD, facility must be able to supply power to GPA.
High system availability (>95% nominal)
Low Forced Outage Rate or Unavailability (<2% nominal or <5% unavailability).
Maintenance records for all generation units provided.
The Temporary Power Facility shall be comprised of at least two (2) generating units.
4 System Protection and Interconnection Guidelines
GPA System Protection Guidelines and design requirements will be discussed at the Pre-
RFP Conference and Site Visit. All CONTRACTOR facilities required to provide Temporary
Power Service must have adequate system protection equipment subject to GPA’s approval and
inspection. Time will be scheduled with GPA Engineering for discussions related to system
interconnection. At a minimum, GPA requires the 115 kV transmission line to be looped in with
a three (3) – breaker scheme. This will include transmission line and transformer protection
requirements subject to GPA’s approval. A Tesla 4000 transient fault recorder shall also be
installed.
4.1 Frequency Limits
GPA frequency is 60 Hz. The frequency limitation of the operating unit or station for
continuous operation shall be between the range of 58.5 Hz and 61.5 Hz. GPA requires the
under frequency tripping relay to be set at 58.0 Hz with 10 seconds time delay and the over
frequency tripping relay set at 63.0 Hz with 60 seconds time delay.
